Velvet sofas and opulent curtains: the Sunaks’ makeover of No 10 flat revealed

subject to an investigation

over the funding of the refit of his flat in No 11 Downing Street while in office, which was paid for by a wealthy Tory donor, Lord Brownlow. Johnson later repaid the cost of the £112,000 project, which was carried out by designer Lulu Lytle. The Sunaks employed the upholsterer John Challis from Richmond, the PM’s North Yorkshire constituency, who told Tatler what his work for No 10 involved: “We made long, fully interlined curtains for all five windows overlooking the garden, hand-pleated and held back with heavy coordinating tassels in red, gold and the ivory of the damask.“The ornate cornicing was hand-gilded, as it would have been originally, and a rug was commissioned to almost fill the room.

Challis also described “window seats in most of the rooms in a complementary colour. Most of the sofas were velvet, in jewel colours, and the cushions also became a work of art.” He described the previous decor as “all very tired” and said that in comparison it had “far less glitz” than the Lytle makeover of No 11.

He needs to go! He is so out of touch with Britains.
