The premiere of furniture collection at Paris catwalks.

January 21 was the date of the premiere of the effect of cooperation between the most famous Polish designer and the network Livingroom by Mebelplast, namely the furniture collection called Eva Minge for Livingroom. The premiere took place during the Eva Minge show within the French week of Haute Couture fashion.

The opportunity for the premiere was provided by the fact Eva Minge was invited to an Haute Couture show in Paris, which is one of the most important events in the world of fashion. The designer was the first Pole to show her extraordinary collection of hand-made gowns and she did so accompanied by such celebrities as John Galliano, Donatella Versace, Christian Lacroix, Jean Paul Gaultier, Armani and Christian Dior. The show was exceptionally rewarding and it was enthusiastically received by the public, which included many stars and connoisseurs of the world of fashion. In the limelight during the exclusive show for the first time in Europe the furniture collection Eva Minge for Livingroom was presented. The sofas „dressed” by the designer provided the background for the models presenting in the catwalk the gowns by Eva Minge.

This extraordinary collection is the effect of cooperation that over the past few months was undertaken by the internationally acclaimed designer Eva Minge and Marek Kołakowski, chairman of Mebelplast Ltd., which is a major Polish manufacturer and exporter of upholstered furniture - „We are proud and happy to have found in Eva Minge a partner, and particularly so since this is the first partnership of the kind in the furniture industry.” – says chairman Marek Kołakowski adding -  „The mix of the talent of Eva Minge with our extensive experience in furniture manufacture means a breakthrough in the furniture industry. The effect is furniture that looks good both during Paris Haute Couture shows and in our clients’ living rooms.”

The collection Eva Minge for Livingroom by Mebelplast consists of sophisticated models of furniture upholstered with the most elegant fabric and leather which is selected personally by the designer – „Each element of the living room I am in is important to me. As it is in the case of clothes, also the furniture, the fabric and the colour of the curtains express my personality. Even the same dress may acquire several incarnations thanks to individually selected accessories. It is also the case of the living room. In both cases, fashion is the crucial factor and follows the flavour of the moment, and everybody may found themselves in it. Couches, sofas, armchairs may be equally charming models as women. The shapes of the furniture betray its character and its personality is emphasised and highlighted by the texture, pattern and colour of the fabric, which serves as its clothes – emphasizes Eva Minge.

The following unique models of sofas triumphed during the show
:

Scala – the principal actress of the catwalk. A sofa in soft, velvet-like zebra-patterned leather. An extraordinary effect is achieved by means of composition of two kinds of leather, namely Semi-aniline and Nubuck. It is hardly possible to figure it out without round cushions made of black horsehair or golden leather cushions of serpent-like texture.



Chesterfield -  a classy, sophisticated model, whose style reminds of the unique British class and elegance. It is presented in different versions:;

- in a soft fabric with a unique shine of the velvet quilted with small Swarovski crystals, which give the sofa its elegant shine



- in sophisticated pearl leather of copper hue with shiny metallic-brown cushions of serpent-like texture – the crowning of the style, class and opulence, which would suit a royal suite.

Laura - an extravagant sofa, with pressed Bycast leather with the alligator pattern on the elbow rests and the main body. The seat and the backrest cushions are made of a soft velour fabric with golden and brown serpent-like texture.



 

Cosmos  - a modern and ascetic model upholstered with the Bycast leather of the alligator pattern strikes with its exotic character. It is adorned with small shiny cushions of the serpent –like, brown-copper pattern and it attracted the attention of each visitor.


Jolly – highly comfortable armchairs and a sofa of an extraordinary streamlined form. They are upholstered with zebra-patterned leather in two hues (auburn-black and black) as well as with predatory alligator leather (pressed Bycast leather) and they are unique thanks to their unusual personality.


Sonia futurist „science fiction” armchairs dressed in shiny leathers and soft velour were as petite catwalk models.
