This Paris Apartment Was Not Decorated with Items from HSN
Speaking of Loulou de la Falaise (see previous post), she happens to live in a fabulous Paris apartment overlooking the city (as we would expect from the influential designer/muse) - one that most of us might even wear fur for if it meant waking up it in every morning. From the looks of things, I don't think she'll be nicking decor items from her new workplace, the Home Shopping Network:
"I like cotton, velvet and handmade fabrics such as kilims and blankets from the Atlas mountains."
"My favourite materials are painted or gilded wood, lacquered objects, decorative paintwork and ceramics with a cracked surface.
I like blends of styles and things that have nothing to do with each other. I like surprises, things that clash, are unexpected, break unity, disrupt monotony - modern paintings with Louis XV furniture, for example. Mixtures of different periods are very interesting. For example, Cezanne's Still Life with Apples and a Pot of Primroses juxtoposes nicely against my Hannah Montana guitar-style lamp from HSN." (Okay, I'm being a goof, she obviously didn't say that last thing.)
A collection of bracelets and bangles so fabulous they serve as decor. This photo was taken before she introduced her two-tone black and purple bangle on HSN, otherwise I'm sure it would be here.
"I have a strong attraction to combinations of red. It is a colour that recurs constantly in my designs and my apartment. My shop is adorned with red furniture and a red carpet."
