The unrestrained glitz and urbane glamour of the 1970s jet set has re-emerged as a sophisticated staple of contemporary design. Seventies cool is still hot, with design this season channeling the hedonism of the "Have It All" decade. The focus this time around is on artists from France and Italy, whose furniture and objects once graced the streamlined, ultrachic interiors of European high society. The sinuous metal forms produced by the aristocratic Milanese designer Gabriella Crespi, and much sought after by the jet set past and present, inspired a new capsule shoe collection by Angelo Ruggeri at Sergio Rossi, who based his sculptural heels on the curvilinear shapes of Crespi's multifunctional creations. New pieces available from Jonathan Adler and the Paris lighting design firm Charles echo the work of the renowned sculptors Philippe Hiquily and Guy de Rougemont, whose designs were often used by the legendary French decorator Henri Samuel as central elements in the salons of the bygone beau monde. Those slick, sexy interiors, with their liberal embrace of metal accents, have also found favor with Kelly Wearstler, who has been so inspired by this epoch that she incorporates original artifacts into her schemes, and has started her own line of "70s-accented furniture and home accessories. Drawn to its originality and inventiveness, contemporary designers are adapting the elegance and worldliness of the recent past and applying it to today's glamorous yet relaxed aesthetic.
