Ibiza

Is this the most beautiful festive table on the planet?

Velvet Circus’s Danielle Hodgson-Lindley creates Ibiza Christmas magic beneath the soaring walls of Sa Capella.

Roses, ribbons and yards of rumpled red linen – the multi-layered decadence of the Velvet Circus festive tablescape is a feast for the eyes and the soul. For founder and creative director Danielle Hodgson-Lindley, it’s about showing that there’s more to Ibiza than the pared-back, rustic-chic looks of summer. ‘Christmas in Ibiza is a deeply joyful time, when history, heritage and sunny, hazy days combine to create a festive atmosphere quite like no other,’ says Hodgson-Lindley. ‘I wanted to create a richly layered scheme that was both sumptuous and playful, using natural features like linen, flowers, fruit and beeswax candles while adding elegant touches like the red velvet cracker ribbons. Tone-on-tone schemes – in this case, reds and pinks – are a Velvet Circus signature that create a warm, immersive aesthetic. We love to incorporate  pomegranates – Ibiza’s glorious winter fruit – as a nod to the island’s rural traditions, when children historically received pomegranates, dates and almonds in their festive stockings.’
