Inside the homes of fashion's finest


Call us nosy, but we can't resist a gander at the homes of the rich and famous - or any dream home for that matter, as we awkwardly crane our necks to peer through windows in well-heeled neighbourhoods.

Thankfully, though, The World of Interiors has done the hard work for us this time so there's no need for our rather amateur tactics. For their first ever fashion issue, the aspirational interiors glossy takes us inside the homes of some of fashion's finest .

Christopher Bailey, Giorgio Armani, Nicolas Ghesquière, Vivienne Westwood, Donatella Versace, Marc Jacobs, Sarah Burton and Jean Paul Gaultier are just a few of the big names who have revealed their inner sanctums. Some even took the photographs themselves, and all have written text to go alongside the images of their homes or, in a few cases, work places.

"I've long wanted to do an issue based around fashion," Rupert Thomas, editor of the monthly publication told WWD . "Bringing the issue to fruition, however, was more complicated - not only because those I wanted involved have more pressing priorities than being in Interiors (shock, horror), but because I couldn't see a way of capturing their individual spirit, as opposed to representing them through the prism of the magazine. That's to say that I did not want The World of Interiors ' view of Vivienne Westwood, Christopher Bailey, et al. The idea was to allow the designers complete control in order to have a genuine peek into how they view the world around them."

Through the keyhole: a look inside designers' homes

From Nicolas Ghesquière's clean, minimalist Paris apartment, to Armani's copious bookshelves and Vivienne Westwood's surprisingly traditional and cosy-looking home , there's something intriguing about seeing into the homes of some of the world's most famous tastemakers.

The December fashion issue of The World of Interiors is out now.
