| Description |
Lest anyone wonder where Rick Owens sleeps — leather sheets, perhaps? — they can get an idea of what’s behind the Gothic designer’s bedroom doors at his first U.S. furniture exhibition. Entitled “Pavane for a Dead Princess,” after French composer Maurice Ravel’s 1899 piano solo, the show opens May 8 at Salon 94 in New York. And, according to a press release, Owens will “transform the gallery into a contemporary sleeping quarter based in part on his own Parisian home.” The furnishings include a low bed and curvilinear headboard cut from Spanish alabaster, and a daybed made of wood, bronze and alabaster. For added Owensian flourish, a floor-to-ceiling sheared mink curtain will enclose the space with a stylish, au sauvage touch.
