"The beauty of this collection is that most pieces exude vintage charm in calming hues of ivory, amber and the perfect shade of blue, which can be effortlessly layered in and styled with existing pieces at home," explains Aaron Mutscheller, President at Anthropologie Living & Terrain.
Although the retailer has spearheaded artist collaborations in the past, Aaron says this one differs, attributing its je ne sais quoi to "Betül's imaginative craft and artful aesthetic, which is cherished globally." The Anthropologie Home President continues, "for many years, she has inspired her community to recreate her made-from-scratch recipes, so together, we developed a collection that encourages at-home culinary enthusiasts and Anthropologie customers to cook, bake, and create."
