LEE JOFA'S LATEST COLLECTIONS

One might take Lee Jofa’s latest collaboration with designer Oscar de la Renta as slightly tongue in cheek.

There will be those among us who will suggest this is de la Renta’s latest collaboration rather than that of the famed textile and furnishings company.

Thus, the renowned designer has entered into a productive partnership with an equally renowned company, one that ultimately will enhance the prestige of both sides as they venture into different, yet complementary, design fields. This partnership was announced over the summer and featured in Elle Decor, but the public now gets to view the result of this fruitful partnership.
