A Diane von Furstenberg wrap dress is something that belongs in every woman’s wardrobe and now you can also invite Diane von Furstenberg into your home. Von Furstenberg urges fans to “own it” when it comes to their interior style, and her collaboration with H&M HOME certainly allows them to do that! The collection consists of bold prints that von Furstenberg is renowned for, such as zebra and leopard print, a kissable lip pattern and Diane’s abstract signature lettering. The 31-piece collection includes a range of interiors and decorative items including: wool blankets, cushion covers, boxes, trays, candles, espresso cups, small plates, vases, pots, posters and a robe.
The Diane von Furstenberg x H&M HOME collaboration encourages the world to express themselves in their space and take charge of their interiors. Key pieces include wool double-sided blankets that drape over the bed or sofa, decorative printed boxes to store your glamorous treasures, lacquer-like trays and a range of scented candles housed in printed glass to place elegantly around the house. Von Furstenberg’s favorite scent – amber – is featured in each of the large candles in the collection, while the four smaller ones are unique interpretations of cedar wood, sandalwood, amber and pine, personally chosen by Diane herself. Sets of espresso cups and saucers sit beautifully in the kitchen, while the colored glass pink and orange rounded vases look stunning in any room, especially when filled with fresh spring flowers. In a luxurious robe featuring the famed ‘Diane’ print, stroll past the posters with inspirational quotes from von Furstenberg herself.
“The prints in the H&M HOME collaboration are very iconic. The ‘Diane’ print I created 20 years ago when I started the company, while the lips print comes from the painting Andy Warhol did of me. Personally, I love animal prints – zebra is very DVF – and also vibrant orange and pinks, but monochrome black and white is very chic, too. The whole collection is fabulous, and I can’t wait to share it with everyone,” says Diane von Furstenberg.
The accompanying campaign was shot in von Furstenberg’s vibrant home and styled by the designer herself, an authentic expression of personal style. We asked von Furstenberg some more questions about the collaboration, collection and process.
