Located off the west coast of France, Île de Ré is one of Europe's most beautiful seaside destinations. Known for its picturesque villages and 60 miles of sandy coastline, for years it has attracted a well-heeled crowd including celebrities like Vanessa Paradis, as well as the late designer Christian Liaigre. Other fans in the design world include decorator Jean-Louis Deniot and his sister, Virginie, who has managed his eponymous firm in Paris for the past two decades.
