Gucci
Gucci’s line of home items, “Gucci Décor,” features an expansive series of furniture, cutlery, and accessories. They feature the brand’s most beloved motifs, including its Gucci Bear, GG Jacquard print, and horsebit symbol. Fans of spring-themed decor will find no shortage of intricate floral pieces among the brand’s plates, teacups, and teapots, which come in a wide variety of colors.
The brand first launched its home line in 2017, and has always featured items with a touch of Italian Renaissance flair (and for many, a vibrant maximalist look), reports Melissa Minton for Architectural Digest.
Recently, the brand launched its “Gucci Design Ancora.” The special collection is a collaboration with various furniture and home design brands (namely Acerbis, cc-tapis, FontanaArte, Tacchini, and Venini). Architect Guillermo Santomà curated furnishing pieces from these partners, exhibiting them in Gucci’s Milan flagship store. Each piece comes in the fashion house’s “Rosso Ancora” hue and clean, modern designs that pop.
Fendi Casa
Fendi is bringing its sleek, modern, and quintessentially Italian sense of style to the homes of its customers with Fendi Casa. The brand’s furniture line offers items for every part of the home, from sleeping quarters to outdoor areas.
Under the leadership of its creative director Silvia Venturini Fendi, and in partnership with leading high-end design group Design Holding, the brand works alongside some of the world’s finest designers to create pieces of unparalleled craftsmanship.
“This is our idea of interior design: elegant and light, classic yet innovative,” Fendi explained in an official statement. The brand’s latest collection of pieces capture the maison’s aesthetic sensibilities and history. It does this through design elements inspired by “the arches of Fendi HQ Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana, the FF and Karligraphy logos, Pequin stripes, and meticulous tailoring,” writes Fendi Casa on its website.
Ralph Lauren Home
Ralph Lauren has always been a brand that most people associate with old school prep. It’s lavish without being ostentatious, and always elegant. The brand has translated this particular aesthetic to its collection of home items. It first launched its home line in 1983, according to Lisa Lockwood of Women’s Wear Daily. A furniture line followed shortly after in 1985, with the addition of a lighting line in 2000. In fact, the brand’s namesake founder was one of the first designers who ventured into the world of lifestyle goods.
Today, Ralph Lauren Home continues to offer an extensive range of exquisite items (including towels and robes), which transform any space into one with an old world charm.
Customers can select from an assortment of furniture featuring classic and timeless silhouettes, or pieces from the brand’s latest Harlow Collection. The bedding collection incorporates ornate flora and fauna designs for a romantic look. The brand also offers its signature linens, with simple yet sophisticated designs that exude quiet luxury.
Hérmes Home
Hérmes’ line of home items includes dog accessories, change trays, throw pillows, chess sets, cutlery, and plates and bowls, just to name a few.
One can find all manner of horse imagery emblazoned across the brand’s items in beautiful artistic renderings. Also present are the fashion house’s signature red-orange hues and fine leather. Geometric patterns and illustrations abound in fun designs that lend a playful yet elegant look to any abode.
Though not necessarily a home staple, the luxury brand even offers stylish equestrian gear. It’s a unique tribute to its origins as a saddle making company. These include saddle pads, fly caps, and even specially-designed Groom School backpacks for equestrians.
Versace
Those with a taste for the extravagant and tastefully opulent can look to Versace for furniture, bedding, and decorative items with panache. Objects from the brand’s home collections feature its famous Medusa head, as well as elaborate baroque-inspired prints that always make a statement.
Nothing says luxury quite like Versace’s gold-gilded towel collection and plates. Meanwhile, its bedding series offers linens in both simple and complex designs for every taste. Throw pillows and porcelain make for great accent pieces. However, one can also go all out with the grandiosity of it all, transforming their abode into a maximalist’s haven.
