One thing that is normally misinterpreted is the manner to which famous fashion designers would live. For famous fashion designers like Veronica Etro, many would be surprised at how she visualizes her home and how elegant yet logical her definition of a good home is.
“For me, a house is all about your life, your character, who you are,” she says. “So I find it very difficult to hide who I am – it just comes out in the things I buy.” Which is why there is plenty of fun and colour about. On the wall, amid antique, Greek, Japanese and pretty English plates, hangs a plain white one with a plaster-of-Paris fried egg stuck to it, and another bearing the faces of Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier. “It’s kitsch, I know, but they make me laugh,” she smiles, slightly embarrassed. Ditto the Cath Kidston cowboy fabric on Filippo’s bed, the Ingo Maurer heart-shaped red lamp on her bedside, the drawing of Alice In Wonderland, Frida Kahlo-style, in her bedroom, with a blank face and single black eyebrow.
