The Autumn/Winter UltraLuxe List
THE INTERIORS COLLAB:
Henry Holland x Studio Ashby Lighting
Henry Holland’s swirling ceramics quickly earnt cult status among interiors fans, and now the fashion designer turned ceramicist has evolved again. “Lighting felt like an exciting next step for us at the studio, moving our ceramic work on to something quite unexpected for the home,” explains Henry. “I started to explore what a Henry Holland Studio lamp could look like by combining existing shapes and forms in the main ceramics collection, drawing from our vases, dinnerware and planters, and building new silhouettes for each base.” The range is available exclusively from Sophie Ashby’s store, Sister by Studio Ashby.

THE HOMEWARE COLLECTION:
Aline Asmar d’Amman x The Invisible Collection
AD100 architect Aline Asmar d’Amman has collaborated with The Invisible Collection to create a striking furniture capsule collection. Sensual forms and materials celebrate femininity, with each design embodying Aline’s passion for exceptional craft and creativity. Highlights from the collection include: the voluptuously braided, curvy form of the Georgia conversation sofa, where powder pink mohair invokes a contemporary ‘Hollywood glamour’ spirit; and the contrasting Stone Cloud collection, a series of singular side tables with a bold mineral and sculptural presence.
THE CHAIR:
Dior Maison x Philippe Starck
Dior Maison invited Philippe Starck to reinterpret its Medallion chair for Salone del Mobile 2022. The legendary designer has created a paragon of the iconic piece; called Miss Dior, it exudes grace and elegance with a dash of audacity. Made from polished aluminium, it comes in pink copper, gold, satinated silver and black, and polished black.

THE TREATMENT:
Le Supreme Skin XO
Forget injectables – the treatment those in the know are signing up for is EF Future Health’s Le Supreme Skin XO. Created by aesthetics and regenerative medicine expert Esther Fieldgrass, this futuristic facial uses advanced needling techniques to infuse exosomes – which have the potential to kickstart cellular activity – deep into the skin. These exosomes tell your cells to behave like young, healthy ones: just one treatment will increase elastin levels by 300% and collagen by 600%, leaving skin tighter, brighter and smoother – and behaving as it would have ten years previously. Whether you’re looking to correct ageing, scars, dullness or pore size – or all simultaneously – this new-gen treatment also has minimal downtime, with skin looking brighter and more beautiful in a matter of days.
