We asked the lovely team @ Tessuti a few questions about their new-season stock.
We are focusing on layering textures to create that welcoming warmth we all crave come winter time. We’re playing with a palette of rich autumnal tones of amber, graphite, plum and indigo. The new 2016 ranges from NODI, Georgia Jay, Ingrid Starnes and Good & Co all play on these hues in their collections.
What are some stand-out items in store?
We have just received in store the exquisite perfumes from Miller et Bertaux. Miller et Bertaux was established in 1985 and is a Parisian design house that creates modern and unique perfumes. Their perfume line is unique by design of package and of fragrant compositions; poetic and refined. Safe to say, we are quickly falling in love with the beautiful, unique scents.
Missoni is a brand we love - what are they are up to?
Missoni’s new 2016 collection, The Oriental Garden, is beginning to arrive in store and it is just beautiful. Rosita Missoni explains that the inspiration behind this collection came from an archival Missoni dress. Its pattern was inspired by the Orient and designed in the 70s for both fashion and home collections. It was such an evocative design that Rosita decided to reclaim it for the 2016 Missoni Home collection. The range features blossoming branches, flowers and bursts of colours all in exquisite detailing whilst still retaining the classic Missoni feel.
What do you love about being in the heart of the Jervois Road strip?
We absolutely love the community. There is such a lovely, strong neighbourhood feeling that we adore being part of. It just keeps growing, and our little neck of the woods has a great selection of cafes, restaurants and shops. It’s a fantastic little hub.
