Summer Home Edit: 22 luxe décor picks that dress your space like a fashion statement
This season, your home deserves the same editorial eye as your wardrobe. Just as fashion's most coveted labels—think Ralph Lauren's bold textures, Loewe's sculptural edge, and Brunello Cucinelli's quiet luxury—embrace vibrancy and texture, your interiors should follow suit. Summer calls for a fearless refresh, trading last year's muted palettes for daring pops of color, artisanal craftsmanship, and pieces that command attention. Imagine a living room draped in La Double J's exuberant prints, a dining table set with Ginori 1735's hand-painted botanicals, or a bookshelf accented by Baccarat's crystal brilliance. These aren't just décor choices; they're style declarations. Like a perfectly tailored blazer or a statement bag, the right home accent can redefine a space with effortless sophistication. From Dantaangoi's handcrafted candles to Loewe's tactile leather objects, each piece in this edit has been chosen for its ability to transform the everyday into something extraordinary. Monochrome minimalism had its moment—now, it's time for interiors to embrace the same fearless energy as a runway look. The 22 pieces in this edit prove that luxury isn't just about price tags; it's about personality, craftsmanship, and the unexpected. A Brunello Cucinelli throw in earthy linen brings quiet refinement, while La Double J's clashing patterns inject pure joy. Baccarat's crystal vases catch the light like jewelry, and Ginori 1735's tableware turns meals into curated experiences. These aren't mere accessories for your home; they're conversation starters, mood-setters, and testaments to a life well-lived. Just as fashion thrives on contrast—soft against structured, vintage against modern—your space should balance timeless elegance with playful rebellion. So this season, don't just redecorate. Reimagine. Let your walls, shelves, and tables reflect the same confidence as your closet. After all, if summer is the season of self-expression, your home deserves a front-row seat. – For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and Instagram Images: Supplied & Feature Image: Supplied

Ensure all eyes are on you this summer with dramatic, fun outfits and accessories from Schiaparelli, Ming pumps from Aquazurra and diva-esque denim from La DoubleJ and Mother
It's all to play for this summer – with play being the operative word – whether you're donning denim like your mama used to do in the 80s or dressing to the nines in eye-catching ensembles. La DoubleJ and Mother bring Ciao Mamma! Say it loud with La Double J x Mother. Photo: Handout Advertisement Italian joie de vivre and California vibes come together in a collaboration between Milan-based lifestyle label La DoubleJ and Los Angeles-based denim brand Mother. Named Ciao Mamma!, the collection incorporates La DoubleJ's eclectic prints into pieces such as denim jackets, midi skirts and Daisy Dukes, some of them adorned with embroidery and patches. Sacai puts the James Dean back in denim Sacai embodies the timeless pairing of a leather jacket, white T-shirt and jeans. Photo: Handout The Sacai spring/summer 2025 men's collection and women's spring 2025 collection pay homage to one of the most iconic actors in history: James Dean , who mesmerised movie lovers with performances in films such as Rebel Without a Cause (1955) and Giant (1956), but died in a car crash at the tender age of 24. Dean came to embody the timeless pairing of a leather jacket, white T-shirt and jeans, so it's no surprise that denim plays a key role in the range. Sacai's founder Chitose Abe didn't just make her own jeans, however: she teamed up with the original denim purveyor, Levi's, reimagining garments in silhouettes and shapes that are unmistakably Sacai but stay true to the workwear roots of the San Francisco-born brand. 'I have always been inspired by James Dean, and although he had many iconic styles, the denim style was absolutely one of them, so having Levi's with his style came naturally,' says Abe of the partnership. Schiaparelli asks: what's up croc? You won't get lost in the crowd wearing this Schiaparelli dress and matching bag made from crocodile-embossed calf leather. Photo: Handout

The shirts that look good on everyone
If you still haven't found a shirt to suit you, you might just be in luck right now. From casual linen boyfriend shapes to dress shirts like the one I'm wearing and sweeping silk cape backs, like the one above from La DoubleJ, shirts are having a moment. The best pack in lots of drama, even worn with simple black trousers. It is, of course, very irritating to read about 'moments' when we're all supposed to be buying more thoughtfully, with everything in our wardrobes looking and feeling as good as possible for as long as possible. But a good shirt delivers on all fronts – you can't get more thoughtful, or classic, even when reinvented to suit 2020s fashion. As is often the way, you needn't go too daring in your quest for the perfect shirt. Remember the famous US Vogue cover from 1992 with Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, Cindy Crawford and seven other supermodels wearing simple white Gap shirts? In terms of turning the tanker that is SS Fashion around, it was the mother of all diversions, pivoting from the power shoulders and bling of the 1980s to something that was just as impactful, thanks to its sheer simplicity. It was so successful that Anna Wintour repeated the trick in 2007. This time the models wore their white shirts with a variety of skirts, from ballgown pouffes (very Grace Kelly) and satin fishtails to figure-hugging pencils. You couldn't find a better demonstration of the shirt's ability to impose presence on the easiest outfits. Expensive shirts – such as the Margaret Howell one above – tend to last a long time. On the other hand, I have 10-year-old linen Gap shirts still going strong. Consider every element of the shirt, from collar to fabric – a classic turn-down style may not suit you, but you might look fabulous in a Nehru, Peter Pan or ruffled collar. Very thick linens, while lovely, can sometimes crease so badly they look like rags (scrunch a hem before you buy to see how it wrinkles). Tencel and viscose are breathable and more sustainable than polyesters, and also don't tend to crease as badly as cotton. A good thermal vest will make them year rounders: this winter, I've gone back to M&S's Heatgen medium and maximum-strength long-sleeved undergarments, with their cosy, fluffy linings. Once you factor in the elastane, they're pretty synthetic, but so cosy and they seem to contain enough viscose not to be sweat baths. Layer your shirts under knits or over tees. A couple of well-chosen gold pendants and a slick of lipstick and you're as polished as you'll almost ever need to be.
