"We are excited to collaborate with designer Rachel Ashwell on her first nursery collection for Pottery Barn Kids, and concurrently partner with Rachel's daughter, Lily Ashwell, to design a bespoke collection inspired by her namesake fashion label for PBteen," said Allison Spampanato, Senior Vice President Product Development, Pottery Barn Kids and PBteen. "Rachel Ashwell's nursery collection with Pottery Barn Kids embodies her authentically imperfect style mixing calming & beautiful florals with well-worn patinas, while Lily Ashwell has created a collection with PBteen that embodies the California free-spirited style found in her work as an artist & fashion designer."
"Over the past 30 years as a designer, my vision has always been to create beautiful and timeless home furnishings that are inspired by the whimsy found in vintage treasures," said Rachel Ashwell. "The Rachel Ashwell for Pottery Barn Kids nursery collection is no different, featuring pieces in my signature palette and patina for that special life moment. The pieces in the collection can grow with your family, becoming future heirlooms and treasures of tomorrow."
"My design background is in women's clothing, but I've always imagined an all-encompassing lifestyle around my creations," said Lily Ashwell. "Taking my love of vintage plus my relaxed, Californian minimalist aesthetic into the world of home in partnership with PBteen, has been an organic dream come true. I'm so inspired to be working in the teen category as I remember my own teenage bedroom as a real sanctuary and safe space to explore my creativity - in a way it's where this all started for me."
The Rachel Ashwell for Pottery Barn Kids Collection features three nursery aesthetics in serene pastels, marked with soft details and subtle embellishments. Incorporating her love of florals, the Pink Nursery mixes beautiful botanical prints with textured tulle and embroidered fabrics, as seen in the Baby Blush Tulle Cribskirt, Floral Patchwork Union Jack Pillow and My First Anywhere Chair in Pink Rose. Maintaining the peaceful atmosphere, the White Nursery incorporates the designer's signature details into pieces such as the Angel Frost Rouched Quilt, Ruffle Pillow and Lace Cribskirt. Infusing timeless prints and fabrics, including stripes and chambray, the Blue Nursery consists of classic pieces like the True Blue Patchwork Quilt, True Blue Chambray with Crochet Cribskirt, contributing to a sweet yet sophisticated look.
Creating a chic getaway for tweens and teens, the Lily Ashwell for PBteen Collection balances free-spirited femininity with relaxed, modern vintage vibes. Inspired by Lily's coastal California home and her family's British heritage, the collection spans two bedrooms and a lounge space and focuses on playful prints, layered onto patchwork with chambray backdrops. With artistic icons, and a nod to her love of astrology, the Cool Room features an eccentric yet tranquil bedding vignette in dreamy hues, showcasing pieces such as the Moon Phases Pillow, Indigo Patch Quilt and Ditsy Floral Sheeting. In contrast, the Warm Room centers around dusty pinks and rich creams with whimsical pieces like the Eiderdown Quilt and Pom Pom Throw. Rounding out the collection, the Lounge and Studio moment highlights wall art inspired by Lily's own original sketches.
