Ahahaha!No, you would not
Bottega Veneta used to have a home line (not sure about present state) that was a very nice, obviously unbranded, extension of their leather goods--intrecciato furniture and the like. Hermes IMO also has interesting home products. I like the things they make from their leather scraps.
It’s like to think that there are people sleeping in Versace sheets. I love Gianni, o loved the campaigns by Avedon but tbh, it would be a nightmare to sleep in those sheets.
I think Hermes is different from all those brands as it is a luxury goods house. They pride themselves in this idea of Artisanat and their range of products is as large and diverse than we could imagine.
I’ve bought some Hermès home stuff for my mother. It looks specific without screaming Hermès.
You don’t need to subscribe to the brand aesthetic to buy their products. And for me, tbh, the RTW and the bags are literally the least exciting part of the brands. I’m fascinated by their home stuff and their horse riding stuff. It’s so decadent in a way that it’s fabulous!
It’s maybe the only brand I can think of where I can go to buy vases, a watch, perfumes, jewelry or travel bags without feeling like brand w****.
Bottega has gone too fashion. I think they discontinued that home line.
I think brands like Faure Le Page, Valextra or even Moynat could pull off the lifestyle stuff.
