At the recent Art de Vivre à la Française exposition, organised by Business House at New Delhi’s Bikaner House, more than 30 French home furnishing, design and architectural brands displayed their most popular designs. Of these exhibits, few had refined lifestyle choices that have been constantly evolving with technological development and globalisation. Le Jacquard Français had curated product displays which were equal parts discerning and adaptable to the Indian context – embodying the brand’s design philosophy.

What sets the brand apart is how it takes French living to a diverse audience. It has incorporated local designs and craftsmanship into its catalogue, thus making customisable products that adapt to different markets and cultures. The Mumbai Collection is one such example. Inspired by India’s long-standing history of traditional craftsmanship and Mumbai’s rich dynamic energy, each piece in the collection is meticulously crafted with the finest materials and attention to detail. Whether adorning a dining table with luxurious tablecloths and napkins or adding a touch of elegance to a living space with plush cushions and throws, the Mumbai Collection brings a sense of native elegance and sophisticated heritage to any home.
In conjunction with this is the Wilmotte Collection by Le Jacquard Français. The brand collaborated with Wilmotte & Associés to further its ambition of curating an elevated lifestyle inspired by great legacy architecture, fashion, and design. Named after renowned architect and designer Jean-Michel Wilmotte, this collection blends modern sophisticated aesthetics with classic design motifs. Intricate geometric patterns and subtle textures adorn each piece, reflecting Wilmotte’s architectural aesthetic and attention to detail. From tasteful table linens to luxurious bath towels, every item in the collection exudes a sense of effortless style and refinement. This collection epitomises refined elegance and understated luxury, showcasing the brand’s commitment to quality craftsmanship and timeless design.

These collections are constantly worked on to keep with the times; drawing from Mumbai’s eclectic landscape and Wilmotte’s lavish urban architecture, Le Jacquard Français has earned its rightful place as an international marker of home linens. Being a part of intimate dining room tables and family gatherings requires the brand’s products to strike the balance between elegance and enduring style.
