2024: La Ligne
In 2024, we're thrilled to partner with La Ligne, the iconic womenswear brand, to transform The Living Room into a festive wonderland. Inspired by Charleston’s sweetgrass baskets, our décor features woven ornaments, magnolia accents, and a stunning 12-foot fir tree designed by stylist Tom Dunn.
2023: SCHUMACHER
In 2023, we partnered with Schumacher, the venerable American design house known for its eye-catching textiles and wallpapers, to create the 2023 holiday tree and décor. The Living Room transformed into a celebration of textiles with a menagerie of red fabric slipcovers and custom trimmings set aglow with a bow-crowned fir tree. The decor was complimented by The Red Tassel: a delightfully festive cocktail crafted by our masters behind the brass bar.
2022: LEWIS MILLER
Beloved floral and event designer, Lewis Miller Design created an exotic and sumptuous take on traditional holiday greenery in the iconic Living Room incorporating a gemstone palette of vibrant turquoise, amethyst, and ruby. Hotel guests and visitors alike discovered hidden butterflies, a clutch of exquisitely wrapped presents, botanicals, and silk flowers.
2021: BRONSON VAN WYCK
Van Wyck & Van Wyck, the internationally renowned event and design firm, transformed the hotel with a beautiful design inspired by an icy, winter landscape. The celebrated event designer Bronson van Wyck along with sister and Charlestonian Mimi van Wyck, brought a touch of the North Pole’s wintery mix to the South.
2020: REBECCA GARDNER
Founder and creative director of House & Parties, Rebecca Gardner, honored The Dewberry’s historic Kennedy-commissioned building with décor evocative of the holidays in the 1960s. The exterior served as an artful nod to the President and his tenacious race to space, with a magical installation of atomic age constellations and starbursts, while the interiors featured a retro curtsy that made it a glamorous destination for fun.
