The novel coronavirus is a harsh reality upsetting our daily schedules and disrupting our way of living. Fashion designers – like the aesthetes they are – are self-isolating resorting to a newly-adopted ‘work from home’ model that has to be as pleasant as possible, so that they are still able to unleash their creativity during quarantine. In their elegant city condos or country homes, some of them choose to cook, dine, and drink in perfect style. Food porn is definitely hugely posted on Instagram, yet you come to realize that the most sophisticated version of quarantine food comes from within the fashion industry insiders. Predictably, they know a thing or more about a chic table setting, a luscious meal, an epic dessert, and generally yummy stylish cuisine. This is after all ‘quality of living’ which is hugely advocated by the so-called lifestyle fashion brands. Cooking food at home at this point is surely safer as long as you wash all the packaging you are receiving from the supermarket and serve it after you wash thoroughly your hands. Fashion designer food presented here is totally uplifting. It shows that taste level can be applied everywhere, even on your daily activities in their most minute details. Designer creativity can give birth to special moments and more tempting visuals. Get ideas and bring about some beauty and flavor to your routines.
