India Hicks: Entertaining, with a Side of Chaos Coffee Table Book

After more than two decades in the design world, Hicks has learned that truly memorable entertaining has little to do with perfection and everything to do with the human connection. Raised amid both British tradition and impeccable aesthetics—her mother is Lady Pamela Hicks, her father the iconic designer David Hicks—Hicks blends an inherited eye for beauty with the relaxed charm of her adopted life in the Bahamas. She has welcomed guests for events intimate and grand. Some occasions are candlelit and meticulously planned; others rely on last-minute place cards, borrowed napkin rings, and freshly cut roses.
