Fashion to Furniture
French fashion designer Christian Lacroix has turn the tables one more time going from fashion design to furniture design.
Lacroix has designed a line of high end furniture for an Italian company Sicis, the line is inspired by a mosaic illustration he created of Byzantine empress Theodora, which will be on display from April 12 through April 17 at the Salon del Mobile Milan fair.
“The juxtaposition of intricate work and artisanal incrustations evokes exactly what I did in Haute Couture,” Lacroix said in a release. “What really appeals when working with Sicis is the way in which we can create the trompe l’oeil effect or a treasure’s richness or a miniature’s complexity or the purity of a metallic tint achieved via tiny stone and glass splinters.”
Even though fashion has been his life, his love for interiors has always been with him since he was a little kid.
