After home decor took over from fashion as the ultimate social-media flex during lockdown, the dinner party emerged as the new personal-style statement, with eye-catching linens and tablescaping scenarios by the likes of Misette and Gohar World going viral. It’s a moment that’s going even bolder for 2023. Known for its explorations of a life lived in linen, Toronto’s Whitney Linen has partnered with Acid4 Yuppies creative Arnie Guha on a collection of tableware inspired by the saturated colours and abstract prints associated with psychedelia. The table runners, placemats and cocktail and dinner napkins feature designs by Guha, bringing a trippy twist to Whitney Linen’s more traditional shapes that evoke a sense of playfulness and curiosity. “The juxtaposition between the more classic style with such vivid and busy prints is really where the magic hap-pens.” founder Whitney Westwood says. “It definitely makes for a fabulous topic at a dinner party.” – Caitlin Agnew for The Globe and Mail
