Easter may call for sporting your Sunday best, but this season poses a different question: what if your table were held to the same standard? Many of the trends circulating this spring look as if they were lifted from a vaguely Marie Antoinette–ish Rococo wardrobe, brimming with lavish, sartorially inspired accessories in a cloud of painterly pastels. The Easter table, it turns out, might just be the perfect runway.
Serena & Lily sets the base with a yellow-and-white striped tablecloth (butter yellow is officially out), finished with a ruffled flounce that could very well belong on a skirt. Meanwhile, Target chimes in with a floral-embroidered table runner we wouldn’t mind seeing translated into a duster coat.
Speaking of clothing, an actual fashion label is getting in on the fête. Romantic darling LoveShackFancy teamed up with Pottery Barn to finish napkin linens with intentionally aged, heirloom-inspired lace that looks as though it could have emerged from an archival rack – or, better yet, its Madison Avenue storefront. And since no occasion wear is complete without a bit of bling – cocktail picks, courtesy of Anthropologie, are dripping with pearls.
Even the eggs get the editorial treatment, quickly becoming the tabletop accessory of the season. Expect ovum-specific cups in chrome from H&M Home, radicchio-style platters that cradle a perfect dozen flush against the surface, and a renewed curiosity about what surrealist spins on the candelabra might look like for the occasion.
For fans of the fabulously offbeat, fashion-coded universe of Gohar World, the answer is finally breaking out the iconic Wrought-Iron Egg Chandelier, which swaps taper candles for a more Easter-appropriate accessory, creating a delightfully quirky centerpiece in lieu of the usual flowers.
It’s not coquette – it’s couture. If you wouldn’t wear it, it doesn’t belong on your table this Easter.
