US-born fashion designer and former model Melissa Odabash is one glamorous woman and, as you’d suspect, has a fabulous lifestyle to match. As the designer of her exclusive swimwear range, Melissa’s job takes her around the world, from Miami to Monaco, for regular photo shoots on tropical beaches. Her label enjoys a considerable celebrity following including Kate Moss, Beyoncé, Rihanna, Sienna Miller and the Duchess of Cambridge.

When it came to refurbishing Melissa’s London home in Connaught Village on the north side of Hyde Park, she wanted something very different. I was looking for that glam look that echoed my distinctive style and the sun-kissed beach hues that have made my brand successful,” she explains.

Enter London-based, Belgian-born interior designer Caroline Legrand, known for designing sumptuous, sophisticated interiors with a timeless appeal.

Introduced by a mutual friend, Caroline and Melissa hit it off from the start. I had been a big fan myself of Melissa’s swimwear ever since she started, so I was excited to meet the woman behind the brand,” says Caroline.
