00:04Hi Vogue, I'm Tori Burch. Welcome to our place in Paris, and we're going to talk about some of my
00:10objects of affection. I've always loved Paris, even since I was very, very little. I used to
00:21come with my parents, but I married a Frenchman. That's why I'm here. And I have to say the minute
00:26that we walked into this beautiful apartment, we knew we wanted it immediately. It was the only
00:31apartment we ever saw, and I think it was instantaneous. We looked at each other,
00:37Pierre-Yves and I, and we said, this is so beautiful. And we saw what it could be.
00:44This is the gentleman with the pickaxe and spade, 17th century. I love this because it belonged
00:52to someone I really loved, Robert Kime. It's such an interesting painting because we don't know who
00:57painted it, but I love this dark contradiction of a man that looks like he's aristocracy, but he's
01:04also a worker. And so he definitely had a mysterious upbringing, didn't know maybe who his father was,
01:12so he was put to work, but also has the sun coming up. So it means there's a better future
01:18for him.
01:18I think it's a bit unexpected to see it as you first walk in, and it's kind of welcoming and
01:24it's a little eccentric. And I think that's what makes it interesting. When I think of someone that
01:31represents iconic chic style, it's Hubert Givenchy. And so when I saw these chairs in his auction,
01:39I thought this would be an incredible starting point for our Paris place. And I love the embroidery,
01:46I love the history, and certainly think he is the chicest man that, maybe aside from my father,
01:53that ever existed. One of my favorite quotes by Hubert Givenchy is that Paris should feel
01:59collected, not decorated. And I think that kind of sums up how I feel about interior design.
02:08So here's our kitchen, a place we spend a lot of our time. We're here a lot. And I wanted
02:14to show you
02:15these cow creamers because wherever I have a table, I put them on. And they're originated in the
02:22Netherlands. And then Staffordshire, England sort of adopted them and took them over. I love how
02:29individual they all are. Each potter had its own kind of cow creamer. And they were decorative,
02:35used for tables, for cream, and served with tea, and also during breakfast. I had to show you this
02:40because working with Studio Perigale was another dream. It was amazing. And the way they worked on
02:47this apartment and the architecture, look at this. Come on in.
02:57So here is our Claude Lalanne apple. I was lucky enough with my husband to spend the day with Claude
03:05Lalanne in her beautiful home outside of Paris. And it's when Pierre Yves was thinking about moving to
03:11New York. So I wanted to get him something special. And of course, an apple represents New York. And so
03:18Claude Lalanne actually cast both of our lips inside. And we spent the day with her looking at how she
03:25made
03:26them. And it was pretty extraordinary. It's a day we'll never forget.
03:31I love the idea of mixing contemporary with old and antiques. And Romuald Hazumé is one of my favorite
03:39artists. I love the way he takes part of his traditions, but also then makes them super
03:46interesting and new. And takes old objects that were discarded and creates something beautiful.
03:54I love the way it's set against this old portrait of the Elizabethan with their lace scarves. But I like
04:02the old and the new. His work is so intriguing because it's about social commentary as well. I mean,
04:09he's definitely making a statement on consumerism and taking things that were discarded, as I
04:15mentioned, and making something new and exceptional out of it. This is the perfect place to read. And
04:22books are something that I think a lot about. I value. So when I first was with Pierre Yves, he
04:29bought me
04:29two of my favorite books. And he bought me first editions. One is A Hundred Years of Solitude by my
04:35favorite
04:35author, Gabriel Garcia Marquez. And then of course, The Little Prince, which is a book that is great for
04:43children and adults. Everyone needs to read this book. The message is superb. I think A Hundred Years of
04:49Solitude just made me question time, perception. And I think that is interesting about design. I think
04:56about longevity and time and what that means and how something will last and how can we make it
05:01be something that's given down throughout generations. Here is a lamp by Urs Fischer. My
05:09friend Jeanne Rowettin showed this to me. She's at Salon 94. And I loved it. I also was thinking it's
05:16kind of interesting because I've always known La Land to have a bird lamp. And I thought that this
05:21was kind of a different take on a bird lamp. And I just think that it's a bit unexpected and
05:27interesting. I'm a little embarrassed to say you usually do this and it turns on, but I forgot to
05:33charge it. And so you have to charge it. That would have been good. This is our garden in Paris.
05:40And we
05:41were lucky enough to work with Madison Cox. They restored everything and they created a space that
05:48makes you feel like we're in the country in Paris. And it's just very zen and relaxing. So I wanted
05:54it to
05:55be almost a green garden and then certain flowers. He said, I'm very specific actually when working
06:01with me about the color palette. So the color comes in the pots and the rest is pretty green. We
06:06had some
06:07beautiful trees like these Japanese maples and just vines that we saved and everything. And then of
06:12course we had to have some hydrangea, which also represents the East Coast a bit. Okay, this is probably
06:19the oldest piece in our apartment. It's 16th century and it's Flora, goddess of gardens and
06:26greenery. And it's about fertility and it used to be in a fountain. I love the age and probably would
06:33love to know what she's seen in her life. So one thing I'm starting to realize is that I do
06:40use things
06:41over and over again. And these jardiniers are one of them. I love them because each of them are so
06:46different. They're Napoleon III, they're enamel and iron. And the thing I love most is that the older
06:52they get and the more worn, I think the more beautiful they are.
06:59This is our dining room and we had to hire Feo Boiserie to do this. It was a white box.
07:06And so
07:06we didn't have any closets or anything or storage. So we curved it and created the space.
07:13Felix Braquemont is the French painter and printmaker. And he also worked with Japanese
07:20artists as well. And I love his plates and I collect them. And what I love about them is they're
07:28also
07:28each different. And he took this incredible printmaking and really was the first to put it
07:36in such beautiful pottery in China. This is pretty exceptional when you look at it. The rooster and a
07:44lot of bugs. I guess I'm a bug person. I like bugs. Another one of my obsessions is flowers. And
07:50it's,
07:51I don't know, a bit of like me and how I relax. I work with this incredible man named Clemence
07:58who has
07:58a farm two hours outside of Paris. And he grows the most magnificent things. And we pick what we
08:04want. Then he comes and look how beautiful. It's pretty extraordinary what he does. One thing I think
08:10a lot about is symmetry. And this is kind of a bit trompe l'oeil because you have the closet
08:15here
08:15that we did with plenty of storage. And then over here, we have a matching door, which looks like
08:24it might be, but it's actually goes into the hallway. Okay. And here's the symmetry going into
08:29the powder room with these Indian reverse glass pictures that I found, which I love because they're
08:3718th century. And it's when Europe brought some of their techniques to India and they melded their
08:43traditions with some European techniques. And that was something I've always been intrigued by
08:48as an art history major. If you come in here, there's more in here. You look at them and some
08:53of the colors are so vibrant. And that's one thing that happens when you do reverse painting on glass.
08:58It's funny because I've not always loved that, but with these, I love it. They all have a story.
09:03And I think that's what's so interesting. They're all looking away, not directly at you. It's almost as if
09:10you caught them in a moment.
09:15This is our bedroom. And we worked with the Reese brothers with Nicholas and Sebastian and their
09:21masters at restoring or creating beautiful things based on something else. And we found this 18th
09:28century men's vest. And that was the beginning of the inspiration for this room. And they hand
09:34embroidered and painted the curtains and the fabrics. The attention to detail is just so incredibly
09:42beautiful. And we upholstered chairs with it. And then on the windows as well. We brought the same
09:50detail into my dressing room. And again, we did it on the walls and on the couch. I think it's
09:57just
09:58pretty exceptional the way they got the colors exact. And then a couple of pieces we made. I made these.
10:04They were off of one of my grandmother's bracelets, these squares that I put my boys' nicknames,
10:10Pickle, Saucy, and Hanky. And I'm very superstitious. So anytime I go on a trip, I have to take them
10:18with me or else I can't get on the airplane. And then the only other thing that I have is
10:22a charm
10:23necklace of my parents. My father had this gold Zippo made and I turned it into a pendant. But I
10:30remember growing up, we weren't allowed to touch it. And he soldered all of these incredible charms
10:35onto this gold Zippo. And everything from, I don't know, St. Christopher to a Tiffany tag. We had a
10:45kennel of German shepherds. So he has a German shepherd here. The tree of New York Stock Exchange.
10:52We were tennis players. I rode horses. His lucky number 13. This shows exactly who my father was.
10:59He had the most exceptional style and just did things in a very interesting, different way.
11:06I wore this last night, so I had to put it up here because I love designing beautiful things. And
11:12this,
11:13I thought, was just so pretty. Some of the embroidery that we did is all hand-done,
11:19ombred to look like it's moving. And wearing it with something structured, I think is quite beautiful.
11:26This is actually one of my favorite pieces I found at one of my favorite shops in Paris,
11:32La Galerie Parisienne. It's a cabinet. And the reason I love it so much is that my mother always
11:37wanted me to get a Coromandel screen in one of my homes. And I didn't want that, but I actually
11:42love this. And it reminds me of that. So this is really an homage to my mother. It's from the
11:481930s,
11:49and I just think it's absolutely beautiful. Okay. Welcome to my bathroom. Let's start with my friend
11:58Nidhi Allen, who brings these beautiful artisanal things to life. And growing up, I always went to a lot
12:07of concerts. And so I call this the Grateful Dead bag because the Rolling Stone bag, I used to take
12:13market bags like this. And I thought, how do we bring this to life with beautiful Indian artisanship?
12:20And that's what Nidhi does with us. I love the craft of it. And this reminds me so much of
12:26my
12:26childhood that I couldn't, you know, I think about things that are impossibly hard to find. And that's
12:32this. So to mix this in with our fall collection, what I thought was very interesting on the runway.
12:41Bye Vogue. Thank you so much for coming and looking at our apartment and seeing some of my
12:47objects of affection. I love it here. And I hope you loved it. Au revoir. Au bientot.
