lush life
Italian Accent


Sì, Missoni’s gypsy-glam zigzags, stripes and bright-as-a-Tuscan sunset colors light up cocktail dresses, sweaters and men’s ties. But the exuberant Italian design house’s rainbow patterns also shine on its line of home items — groovy bath towels, bright bedding, plush poufs (shown, $710), butterfly-print pillows and curvy settees. The dolce vita array, just in stock at Georgetown’s Contemporaria (3303 Cady’s Alley NW; 202-338-0193), makes an ideal backdrop for lounging around drinking glasses of Barolo, maybe while cavorting on the Divano Modular Sofa (components $710-$3,885), a louche grouping of slouchy seats in a wild floral print.
