Diane von Furstenberg To Design Hotel Rooms

While some designers won’t rest until there’s a hotel with their name splayed on the front, Diane von Furstenberg is happy to remodel a few rooms in one of the most prestigious hotels in the world.

Starting in June 2010, guests at Claridge’s in London–a favorite of Kate Moss, Justin Timberlake and the late Alexander McQueen–will be able to stay in a series of rooms and suites designed by the reigning queen of the New York fashion scene.

“One of my fondest memories was when I was in London as a young, independent businesswoman and stayed at Claridge’s. I knew I had made it,” said the designer. “To me, Claridge’s is the most glamorous hotel in the world; I regard it as my home away from home.”
