With social calendars filling up and fashion shifting towards party styles, interiors are following suit. A new flamboyance and playful confidence have emerged, helmed by a rush of décor movements such as Maximalism and RegencyCore.
“Glamour is back, as too an element of theatre and showing off our homes,” says Laura Barnard, Buying & Merchandising Manager from Arlo & Jacob. “After over a year spent cocooning, the party frocks are out, cocktail parties are back, and interiors are also leaning towards ultra-comfortable and luxe.”
Up the ante with your next soiree by mixing our Vesper statement chair and serving up a James Bond's Vesper Martini. Impress your friends with this elegant combination of glamorous chair and refreshing, grown-up martini. Like its namesake, the Vesper Martini is an elegant and smooth enigma with a twist.
