Introducing FRAME at Sofas & Stuff
A Harper’s Bazaar perspective on interiors
Since the British edition first appeared in 1929, Harper’s Bazaar has brought fashion into conversation with art, photography, literature, design, interiors and travel. Its pages have reflected the creative culture of successive eras, with an editorial perspective that extends beyond what we wear to how we live.
For this collaboration, Sofas & Stuff have drawn on six covers from the British archive, dating from 1930 to 1959. Reinterpreted for upholstery, details of line, colour, pattern and tailoring find new expression in the home.
Fabric at the heart of FRAME
Fabric is fundemental to FRAME and to the freedom it offers.
Six exclusive fabrics created with Harper’s Bazaar, inspired by covers from the British edition dating from 1930 to 1959, sit alongside original designs by our Founder and Design Director, Andrew Cussins, and an edit of woven and textured plains.
Shape and proportion establish the character of each FRAME design; upholstery can transform it again, through expressive print and colour, restrained neutrals or tactile texture.
Editorial perspective. Individual expression.

Harper’s Bazaar Houndstooth
Houndstooth is one of fashion’s most recognisable patterns, its distinctive broken check giving it a strong graphic identity. On a sofa or chair, its familiar geometry takes on a fresh sense of scale and presence.
A recurring motif in Harper’s Bazaar over the decades, Houndstooth takes its particular inspiration from the tailoring featured on a January 1959 cover, photographed by Richard Dormer.
The design is available as both a printed and woven fabric.
