Fashion labels love collaborations. Some of the most interesting pairings are with interior designers and décor brands. Here are four that are noteworthy.
Planet Fashion loves a collaboration, to the point where there’s so much brand A x brand B that many have become meaningless.
While the idea is cooling in fashion circles, it is really heating up in the interiors arena.
At the high end is Chloe’s re-edition of its 1970 Tomato Chair, originally designed by Frenchman Christian Adam in partnership with the Italian brand Poltronova.
This is the firm whose Ultrafragola mirror has been ‘reinterpreted’ by many high street brands.
Spearheaded by Chloé’s creative director, Chemena Kamali, the collaboration riff on the fashion label’s bohemian sensibility, turning the leather-clad rounded form into a place to lounge.
It was one of the big hits of the 2026 Milan Design Week.
Produced only in a limited number during the 1970s, the reissue is being offered on a made-to-order basis. It comes in cool cognac, sand, cream or black tanned hide options.

Basics that are anything but
South-African-born British interior designer Kelly Hoppen has partnered with Marks and Spencer and channels her queen of cream moniker in ways you didn’t think could still be interesting.
And yet her beautiful tactile things are objects you didn’t think you coveted.
The beauty here is that they have been brought into the realm of mere mortals.
These include a ceramic soap dish and a large block of fragranced soap, €23, and her 100 per cent Turkish cotton towels that turn what is considered a basic into something very classy.
A simple but smart design incorporates a contrasting central stripe to give a contemporary, spa-like finish to your bathroom.
They feel gentle on the skin and dry rapidly.
The range comes in three sizes, a hand towel costs €16; a bath towel costs €29, while a bath sheet costs €39, excluding delivery from M&S.
Tailored seat with Teutonic sharp lines
Family-run French furniture firm Ligne Roset and Teutonic razor-sharp tailoring house, Hugo Boss, take a more literal approach to their partnership.
By reimagining Ligne Roset's design classic sofa, the Togo, in two tones and two textures, it brings the feeling of a tailored suit into our interiors," Marco Falcioni, creative director at Hugo Boss, says.
The relaxed seat now has a leather base.
While the seat isn’t currently available to Ireland and the UK due to fabric fire retardant treatments required, its exclusive supplier here, Arena Kitchens in in discussion with them.
As part of Togo’s 50th anniversary, Roset has done several collaborations with French designers, including Maison Pierre Frey.
Tableware with an Italian maximalism twist
Founded by American journalist J.J. Martin, La Double J began as a shoppable magazine with the twinned purpose of selling her collection of vintage clothing and shining a light on Milan’s female creative captains.
Its eye-catching prints now grace homewares as well as apparel, as can be seen in the lead shot in this story, of London’s The Dorchester.
Its summer garden is reinterpreted by the Italian fashion house, bringing a maximalist spirit to Mayfair.
While its ranges run from carpets, cushions, and pillows, it is the tabletop elements from its Napoli Rosa collection that feature in the five-star establishment.
A pair of placemats costs €140, or a set of two napkins costs €60.
The Impero tea pot in its signature Odysseus print in dusty pink costs €360, while a pair of tea cups and saucers costs €250.
The garden is open until September.
West Coast cooler
Rocking a West Coast sensibility, interior and product designer Kelly Wearstler doesn’t seem to sleep.
She’s collaborated with many brands from Airbnb to Pinterest and Louis Vuitton and has made ranges for Belgian homeware house Serax and lighting firm Visual Comfort.
She’s created interiors for several Proper hotels, including Austin, Downtown LA and San Francisco, along with the Four Seasons Anguilla.
The designer has nailed the high-low mix with her upcoming collection with Danish fast fashion label H&M Home.
Landing in selected stores and online on Thursday, September 3rd, expect the same kind of reaction that the recent fashion collaboration with Stella McCartney caused.
