Iconic French fashion designer Sonia Rykiel will be debuting a home collection of "fabrics, cushions, carpets and throws featuring floral patterns and [...] signature multicolored stripes." The designs, described as "flirty Left Bank style," will compliment Rykiel's existing bed and bath line, below.


I was all on board for this new collection until I read about the "humorous touches" including "black velvet cushions with rhinestones spelling out 'Blonde,' 'Brune' and 'Rousse' ('Blonde,' 'Brunette' and 'Redhead')." Bedazzling in French is just as merde as bedazzling in English. Maybe more so.
Stark Carpet will distribute the collection Stateside beginning in September. That's an odd pairing, don't you think?

LOVE Sonya Rykiel. Her line, however, sounds tacky.
Love this lady...in my mind she is more "Rug Company" and the bedazzled part is the really odd part, oh well, still think her fashion rocks!
I thought her line for H&M was tackola...
I love her but not crazy about her rhinestone idea!
I love her, but not sure about the rhinestone cushion.
Perhaps they should be displayed with a brothel stinking candle?
I didn't think the french stooped to bedazzling. I find this disturbing.
1 Funky Woman - Hello and welcome to this deliciousness!
this is about as exciting to me as an enema.
sidenote* i enjoyed very much the children's portion of her H&M line.
Jenny about covered it.
Love the bedding in the second picture but the bedazzling has to STOP! People who bedazzle thing have to be put to work helping cleaning up that mess from the oil spill... in bedazzeld overalls!
That will teach them!
Is it just me or could she use a new head shot?
btw I mentioned you in my blog yesterday and should have given you a heads up.
Jesus Sonia, you need to get an avocado or two on that thatch lady. I have similar barnet issues so feel able to comment.

I had nothing nice to say and appear to have sat down twice - sorry Raina.
Helen - You're fine, Girlfriend. As for Sonia, I'd say her and Grace Coddington both.
You are most gracious!
