French Connection launches new home collection
Bring high fashion to your home with this gorgeous collection, says Ideal Home’s shopping editor


Fashion label French Connection has launched a new home and lifestyle collection, and if you're a fan of the brand's classic clothing lines, its homeware offering is bound to appeal.
The collection is grouped into buys for the living room and bedroom and includes soft furnishings, bedding, ceramics, lighting, storage and occasional furniture. All use the same natural materials and neutral colour palette of taupe, white, tan, grey, blue and black, so that many pieces across the range work naturally together.
Our top buys include the stitched linen throws, £110, and black porthole mirrors, from £49 each, not to mention the stunning driftwood stools, from £95 for the smallest (all pictured).
When it comes to glassware and ceramics, there are more gorgeous pieces, ranging from shapely vases in seeded glass or hammered steel, to the more vibrant striped tableware in coastal blue and white.
The collection is available online and in selected French Connection stores across the country.
