How to get the look
Striking monochrome, a pop of colour and a little bit of sparkle give instant gloss and glamour; but what we really love here is the rebirth of classic forms in ultramodern materials and finishes.
1) Apply chic style
Apply chic and sleek style to a formal living or dining room, or use it to create a power-glam boudoir.
Frame your bed with a pair of these glossy and elegant bedside tables.

2) Buy signature pieces
Feature wallpaper, a white or black leather sofa and a high-impact mirror – oversized or in mosaic form (or try mirrored suspension lights). A glossy coffee table is a must – and don’t be afraid to add some sparkle.
Black and silver mosaic swirls give the look some 1960s psychedelic style.

3) Choose the right shapes
Classic forms are reinvented in modern materials: a turned lamp base in black arcylic, or a silhouette of a chandelier in laser-cut perspex. When it comes to furniture, simple curves and sharp lines blend beautifully.

4) Go for a monochrome palette
Choose black and ivory, then add an accent, such as cerise, lime, red, orange or electric blue.

5) Add luxurious leather
Look for luxurious leather, high-shine mirrored glass or crystal and see-through arcylic or perspex for a sleek edge.
Just like the Chanel quilted handbag, this sofa is an understated but iconic design.

Stylist’s top tip
Coloured glassware is an inexpensive way to add vibrancy to a table setting – stick to your accent colours to focus the look.
