Black Tie, Party of One
Get dressed up for an evening nobody else is invited to.
Gold, deep green velvet and a sunburst mirror deserve an occasion. Tonight the occasion is you: the good lingerie, a scented candle, and a room that feels like a hotel suite.
The evening
Candlelit: Sweet and talkative.
Put on something you save for special occasions and wear it around your own room. Light the candle, play the music you'd want at a gala, and order in something good.
This is yours to shape. Stop, slow down or change course whenever you like. Nothing here is a goal you have to reach.
The setting
Kill the overheads. A cluster of pillar candles does the rest.
Slow standards and a little vinyl crackle, kept just under the conversation.
A dark, resinous candle that belongs with brass and lacquer.
A heavy velvet throw against smooth silk pillowcases, for the contrast.
Positions it suits
From the position guide: frank, practical and comfort-aware, with the furniture that makes each one easier.
