The fashion homeware collections to invest in for your next Instagram-worthy tablescape

From matching patterned plates to painterly porcelain and glassware, this summer it’s all about delightful dining

The art of tablescaping – artistically arranging one’s tableware – has taken hold of 2020, thanks to the dramatic increase in the meals we partake in at home, as well as our newfound desire to turn everyday occurrences into spirit-lifting, Insta-worthy occasions. Enter lavish lockdown lunches and decadent weekday dinners, as we delight in chromatic glassware, decorative plates and shapely pillar candles, and as ‘tablescape’ becomes the new homeware hashtag of choice.

Our go-to fashion brands and creatives have transferred their signature styles onto ceramics and table linens, as coordinating the tabletop becomes just as important as putting together an outfit. Whether you’re going for rainbow brights, dainty flowers or a clashing kaleidoscope, the scheme needs to tie together – decide on an overall theme first, or plan around the tablecloth, incorporating different materials, textures, shapes and heights. For a quick fix, new brands The Sette and Maison Margaux have pre-curated sets of individual table placements ready to buy – or rent – as one chic, Instagram-approved package, while queen of entertaining Alice Naylor-Leyland’s ‘Tablescapes in a Box’ for four have proved a sell-out for the socially distant.

We’ve selected key pieces from the brands creating the most delicious dinnertime dioramas, to give your tablescaping talents a head start.

Tory Burch

The Fashion Homeware Collections To Invest In For Your Next Instagram-Worthy TablescapePin

With her mother a gardener, Tory Burch grew up creating organic tablescapes, which in turn inspired the verdant tones and emblems of her SS20 homeware collection. Embossed fronds, leaves and buds sprawl along the scalloped edge of plates, painterly birds strut among vines across jugs, and glassware is coloured in the same lush green. Coordinating ceramics are hand painted in the 19th century spongeware technique creating a leaf-like pattern, and placemats are a contemporary circular raffia affair. Use the handkerchiefs, monogrammed in letters made up of leaves and flowers, as place name settings.

B.F.A. by Benedetto Fasciana

The Fashion Homeware Collections To Invest In For Your Next Instagram-Worthy TablescapePin

Picking up his paintbrushes for the first time in 25 years, Milanese architect Benedetto Fasciana has adorned his first tableware collection, B.F.A, with the essence of the leafy Sicilian countryside. White ceramic dishes and pitchers are handmade by local craftspeople before being decorated with Fasciana’s 1960s-inspired botanicals and flowers, then subtly edged in gold. Take a tabletop trip to the Mediterranean and combine the pieces with oversized leaves and bold botanics, and serve only the finest Italian fare.

Dior’s Art de la Table collection, Cannage, sets the scene for the most sophisticated of suppers.

Glassware and cutlery is engraved with the pattern, linens embroidered. Combine with starched whites and foraged greenery for the most timeless of tabletops, or add further gold elements to increase the luxe factor.
