India Hicks for HSN

Let me begin by saying I don't spend a lot of time watching HSN, but late Monday afternoon I succumbed when the listing on my tv guide read "India Hicks".  Wouldn't you be curious?  Apparently Ms. Hicks has put together a collection for HSN called "Island Living" that is inspired by her life at Hibiscus Hill in the Bahamas , and also by her design legend father David Hicks.

First, a few shots of India's home aka the partial inspiration for her collection.

Lots of white, lots of texture, and small doses of color. And a big 'ol sailboat for drama.


Again there are  light walls and lots of texture - this time with formal (by comparison) antiques.  Enormous bird cage(I think?) for drama.


White walls. Check.  Textural elements . Check. Something big and dramatic. Check. 

And her HSN collection?  There are a few things that would absolutely be at home at India's place:.
Seagrass baskets for texture


Flying Irishmen Sailboat model for drama

Diamond throw, possibly inspired by her father's iconic La Fiorentina?


See what's left of the collection here.

  2. Love the idea of the sailboat statement and the "birdcage".
    Surely she has her own "signature" approach!

  10. I'm curious if ended up buying anything. I love the baskets. She has a great style and "Island" is off the beaten path for getting the "originally" vote. (Intentionally neglected Tommy Bahama.)

  11. I love the chair in the last image! Will have to see more.
    David Hicks has always been one of my all time favorite designers, and I see him in some of India's work.
    While I wouldn't use it, I love the pink on the sofa.
    Thanks for sharing, Kim.
