DEL.ICIO.USCalvin Klein’s new furniture collection
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Don’t you just love the fusion of fashion and furniture?
Ralph Lauren did it. Oscar de la Renta did it.
It was just a matter of time before Calvin Klein did it too. Calvin Klein, Inc. announced early this month the launch of the first Calvin Klein Home Furniture collection.
It’s great news for those of us who prefer a minimalist aesthetic. The collection - which includes two lines, “Calvin Klein” and the “curator collection by Calvin Klein Home” - takes inspiration from the textures and materials used in the apparel and accessories lines.
Calvin Klein furniture includes pieces for living room, dining room and bedroom priced from about $850 for a glass end table to $2600 for a canopy bed and is organized into three groups indicating the type of wood used - City (walnut), Weekend (whitewash) and Destination (teak). The collection will hit Macy’s (including stores in Atlanta) in January.
The “curator collection” includes 65 unique items with elaborate detailing such as a tall chest of drawers with valet doors. Prices range from $1100 for a cocktail table to $5000 for a walnut sleigh bed. Items in this collection will be available at fine furniture retailers.

I like the clean lines of the pieces you feature in this posting. The prices are rather high - I hope the quality can justify the cost.

I agree! I love the furniture but I’m afraid with the economy the way it is… it’s just going to be out of my price point. I’ll wait for the target knockoffs! ;)
