Alessi dressed

Designer Marcel Wanders

The table set Dressed was designed by Marcel Wanders. Traditionally, embellishments are placed at the important and visible parts of an object. However, Wanders places them in inconspicuous, slightly hidden spots, sometimes even in areas that are not usually visible. One could say that Wanders employs an introverted decoration style. The name of the collection, Dressed, suggests a decoration designed like a beautiful dress: it is meant to highlight the content without stealing the show.
