Sleep on a bed of blooms with ultra glam new Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen's design
The former Changing Rooms star has designed an upholstered bed, that oozes decadence
A shrinking violet is not how we'd best describe the flamboyant TV personality and designer. It's therefore no surprise that the new Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen bed design is bold and striking. The dark brooding floral design is so 'him' – perfect for adding a touch of exuberance to bedroom decors.
The renowned designer has teamed up with handcrafted furniture brand Aspire to launch the new upholstered bed design.

With more than a touch of his signature Llewelyn-Bowen style the new Mayfair Lady upholstered bed is not for the faint-hearted.
New Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen bed design
Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen is best known for his unapologetic, flamboyant style when it comes to his designs. For the new Mayfair Lady upholstered bed he's paid homage to one of his all-time design heroes, Cecil Beaton. Cecil's designs made Audrey Hepburn so unforgettable in Oscar award-winning film ‘My Fair Lady’ – the beds namesake.
Statement large-scale blooms adorn the fabric, which encases a deep foam padding on both the head and footboards. Handcrafted in the UK, the durable design features a solid timber framework and hand-carved, varnished feet.
The captivating piece has been thoughtfully constructed for simple self-assembly, available in both double and king sizes. The design is Laurence’s hymn to the romantic tradition of the bedroom, combining divine comfort with the unprecedented heights of contemporary glamour.
