Designer Focus: Twiggy

Twiggy’s face is iconic. Finding her fame as a model in the early part of the 60′s, she progressed onwards and upwards as a model, an actress and a singer. More recently, she is perhaps best known for her work as a model for M&S fashion. Unknown to many,however, she has also designed a range of bedding available now on www.furnishings-direct.co.uk .

The range offers soft, light colour pallettes combined with more traditional construction – patterns, prints, detailing abound.

For example, this silver throw is indicative of the design: a soft, non-intrusive colour, perfect for modern rooms with modern designs, yet with diamond detailing, giving the throw interest. Or this Alisa Silver Oxford pillowcase, again offered in silver and grey, with subtle flower prints.

Twiggy’s range is definitely modern, yet the retain interest and features as opposed to some of the more stark features of modern minimalism.
