Vive La RevolutionMaison Christian Lacroix has collaborated with Moooi
Carpets for a second collection, this time inspired by
the Incroyables and Merveilleuses, the fashionable
aristocrats that emerged after the French revolution.
The statement range aims to emulate the post-
revolutionary feeling in Paris at the time and features
vibrant turquoise, pink and neon yellow backgrounds
and an explosion of floral motifs.

Going Platinum Fashion and interiors often go hand in
hand, which is why it comes as no surprise
that South Kensington-based interior
designer Alina Lacatusu had a highly
successful career in the fashion industry
before turning her hand to interior design.
Now the proud owner of Platinum Interiors
London, Alina is well-practiced in the art
of luxury, a skillset evident in all of her
projects. Standout developments include
creating a classically luxurious setting for
a three-bedroomed Georgian town house
and an ultra-contemporary space for an
apartment in a Grade II-listed building.

Time for TeaWedgwood has long been associated with
teaware, but this July will be the first time it
will launch a complete set. The Tea Garden
range features a floral teapot, cream and
sugar vessels, and a selection of cups,
mugs and saucers named after fruity teas.
Decorated with prints from the brand’s
archive, the new line comes in green, pink,
yellow and purple to match Wedgwood’s
selection of green tea and mint, raspberry,
blackberry and lemon and ginger teabags.

The Fine PrintWhen thinking of England in the summer, outdoor games, picnics in the park and lazy
afternoons spring to mind. These images have been called on by artist and wallpaper
designer Marthe Armitage for her new home collection with Jo
Malone London, entitled Summer Afternoon. The range comprises
bath oil, drawer liners, a soap collection and a candle, all
packaged in a playful print designed by Armitage. Each product
has been scented with Jo Malone London’s latest fragrances: red
roses, green tomato and nectarine, blossom and honey.
