Maisons du Monde is one of the most exclusive furniture brands, present in the most elegant and classy homes. It is a highly successful French brand that for some time now has been able to establish itself in the market with trendy objects that are able to surprise and fascinate with the unique and unambiguous style of their lines. Maisons du Monde has always tried to stand out from the competition, sometimes daring and daring. The results of these strategies have always been effective, to the point that today Maisons du Monde furniture and decorations make a fine showing in the homes of high-caliber figures and others. In the continuous search for new paths to take and new bets to win, the French furniture house decided to start collaborating with some big names in fashion and design to create real capsule collections. What is the first big name that was proposed to collaborate with Maisons du Monde? Chantal Thomass, a true fashion icon, a true style genius who has in terms of daring has few equals in the industry. It was she who invented the iconic lace tights, and it was she who came up with the ideas for the sexiest lingerie lines on the planet.

Who is Chantal Thomass?

To call her a genius is probably an understatement; Chantal Thomass is a true contemporary fashion icon who can only be compared to the greats like Karl Lagerfield, Valentino or Giorgio Armani. The daughter of a seamstress and an engineer, from a young age she has always had a fatal attraction to fashion, for which she has an innate vocation. His first clothing line dates back to the late 1960s and, as is obvious, had a very strong hippie bent given the historical context.
Ter et Bantine
, today as then, aims to liberate women from the stereotypical image of the times they live in; the creations were extraordinary, so much so that they won over the great Brigitte Bardot, who became a client of the brand, contributing decisively to its growth. Today, however, Chantal Thomass is best known for her eponymous brand of
women’s luxury lingerie
, capable of emphasizing the shape and sensuality of every woman.

All this may seem contradictory and irrelevant to the new challenge accepted by
Chantal Thomass for interior design
but, in fact, it is not. Indeed, in her long career, Chantal Thomass has often had contact with the design world, as she has been called upon to decorate the iconic Vice Versa hotel in Paris but also to design Murano glass chandelliers, ceramics, and mirrors.

Chantal Thomass for Maisons du Monde

Classic and modern come together in the
Maisons du Monde capsule collection by Chantal Thomass
, who decided to use predominantly black and white for this new venture. She has not distorted her way of being and so has created furniture and accessories with refined taste but capable of great irony, supported by motivational phrases that appear here and there on the elements she designed where a touch of pink, almost a signature for the French designer, is almost never missing. The capsule collection appears very feminine, and it could not be otherwise, but then again, it is women who usually have the final say on the decor. Those who love the maison Chantal Thomass surely notice the absence of lace or, at any rate, references to lace in this collection of furniture and accessories, but it was a deliberate choice on the part of the designer. In her exclusive lingerie products, lace is all but ubiquitous, a true element of recognition, but as she explained, this is an extremely delicate material that fits poorly in such a context. Therefore, instead of opting for more durable cheap lace, he preferred to avoid its very use in order to maintain the perception of exclusivity and luxury even in his Maisons du Monde furniture. How can you blame her?
