The way we decorate homes has always been as much a matter of taste as the way we dress. But today there is more scope for self-expression than ever before. Indeed, fashion designers are rapidly transforming our interiors as well as our wardrobes as couturiers develop merchandise for the home. You can now have tea in china by Versace, cover your floor with kilims by Romeo Gigli and sleep between sheets by Kenzo. You might not expect an interior decorator to be able to design beautiful clothes, but fashion designers have a gift for creating stylish surroundings as well as fabulous frocks. Many designers see their own homes as a creative form of self-expression, a space that can evolve over time, unlike their fashion designs which have to be reinvented every season. But this crossover between clothes and interior design should not come as a surprise. A glimpse inside a fashion designer's apartment can be a revelation.Designers from Armani to Yves St. Laurent open their doors. Here are the grand interiors of Versace, Geoffrey Beene, Oscar de la Renta and many other. Designer create and edit their own living spaces as they design their collections, and as for color, designers require precision: three shades of white, that precise shade of raspberry with purple.The book combines interior views with fashion designs, making links through textures, colors, and shapes, giving us a unique insight into the designer's creative approach. Double-page spreads and close-ups of detain make for a book that is visually dynamic, matched by a very readable text, including personal quotes from the designer themselves. Media ><
