Couture lovers will be glad to know that their homes can look as spectacular as they do, with high-end fashion brands presenting luxury home furnishings that'll make their hearts skip a beat or 10.

Whether meticulously handcrafted by a leather artisan or created to honour a famous artist, each piece usually has a story behind it. Here, we share our favourite picks from recent collections.
