looking : fabrics

for a sofa-this the most perfect of styles. I like the classic styling with the upholstered small legs-nail head studded.

now for the fabrics. the perfect ones- I find are often on the runways. this is one of the reasons I still follow fashion & thank you vogue.com for your gorgeous up close photography that records the details-which is what it is all about. Sometime these cross overs don't work- and vice versa- No one wants to look like their sofa- or any sofa for that matter.

Here are some textiles that make me love doing what I do-

the ideal for the Glamour fashions of 2010- Glamour made a comeback in a big way on the American designer runways at Fashion week. The Glamour is there- But who can wear it ?

Carole Lombard,  no one compared.
No one could carry it off like Lombard.
I think Gable would have agreed.

what an elegant colour palette! I am envisioning a room in these colours, & the dress of course. I've always loved Alberta Ferretti's Philosophy.
