Debenhams just upped its homeware game with a new concession
Maisons du Monde is bringing French shabby chic to stores
If you haven't made the trip to Debenhams in a while and live in London, Manchester or Birmingham, you might want to drop in this weekend. Because these flagship stores – including the Capital's Westfield branch – have just launched an exciting new homeware concession, Maisons du Monde at Debenhams.

You may have visited the Maisons du Monde website before, in which case you'll know it's bursting with furniture and accessories. But until now, we've not been able to experience the brand up close and personal, the way its native French shoppers do.
That's all changed now though. The trio of shop-in-shops will carry hundreds of products from the latest collections, showcased around five different themes.
Green Market is an earthy trend – think raw woods, woven pieces and industrial styling, mixed with lots of greenery (above). The Suzon range is all about pretty pastel tableware and home accessories – perfect for a Scandi look or romantic summer wedding.
Sweet Tropical is a vibrant look for high summer. There's some gorgeous stationary and great indoor and garden furniture in neon tones, so you can create a 'tropi-cool' look outdoors. Cabane is Maisons du Monde's take on a coastal theme, and finally, there's Golden Oasis – north African-inspired look in the golden tones of the desert.
