Some designers make things that look beautiful on a shelf. Donna Wilson makes things you actually want to live with — bold, joyful, and full of personality from the first use to the hundredth.
Raised on a farm in rural Aberdeenshire, Scotland, and trained at London's Royal College of Art, Donna Wilson has been bringing pattern, color, and unmistakable character to everyday home goods since 2003. Her work draws from the natural world, Scottish craft traditions, and an instinct for color that is entirely her own — resulting in pieces that feel both considered and completely fun.
At Fina Tavola, we carry her towels and socks — two categories where Donna's design sensibility shines brightest.
Towels That Actually Make a Statement
The Donna Wilson towel collection is crafted in Portugal with a family-run mill renowned for its fine jacquard weaves. Each towel is made from 100% cotton at 600gsm — super-soft, highly absorbent, and built to hold its shape wash after wash. Practical enough for everyday use, distinctive enough to become a permanent fixture in your home.
The Lazy Cat Towel features Donna's signature spotty cat design — charming, graphic, and perfectly smug by the bath or shower. The Multi Stripe Towel is a kaleidoscopic multicolor marvel that works just as well poolside or at the gym as it does in your bathroom. Both are available in face cloth, hand towel, bath towel, and bath sheet sizes.
Socks With Personality
Donna Wilson's socks are made in Portugal from organic combed cotton — soft, long-lasting, and designed to make even the most ordinary outfit a little more interesting. The Wiggle Socks bring bold graphic energy with their black and white zigzag pattern, while the Mermaid Socks offer cool oceanic tones for a quieter, more poetic look. The Kaleido and Jazz Socks round out the collection with even more color and pattern to choose from.
All socks fit women's US sizes 6–9 and are machine washable.
Why We Carry Donna Wilson
Donna Wilson fits naturally into what Fina Tavola has always stood for — authentic, beautifully made goods from independent European designers who care deeply about craft and quality. Her pieces aren't just functional; they're the kind of thing you point out to guests and smile about every time you use them.
