New Design...
Published on Tuesday 4th March 2008
With just a week until all the new fabric collections are launched you can expect to see some of the best designs in a while as colour and opulence have a big part to play. So far I’ve managed to take a preview look at both Designers Guild  and Osborne & Little - both have produced some stunning fabrics and wallpapers.
Designers Guild have a wonderful collection of new fabrics and designs continuing the Rococo theme and using an abundance of wonderful fabrics such as velvets, sheers, silks and taffeta’s all on a wonderful colour palate.
In response to a huge demand they’ve produced a luxurious trimmings range: velvety pom poms, glass beads and mother of pearl with coordinating tie backs. As ever they’ve come up with a wonderful range of accessories, beautiful bed linen, blankets and throws, and a range of cushions to liven up any interior.
 Check out the range of stationary too. (Stationary wise I’m also loving Hazlitz for their wonderful range of girlie cards and bespoke stationary; it’s a really great find.)
Design week starts on Sunday the 9th March for the trade and is then open to the public from the 12th to the 14th – it’s well worth a visit.
For the new season, The White Company has come up with what I think are the most beautiful lights: the Luce comes as a tall floor lamp and a smaller table lamp, and I will most certainly be using them in an interior scheme. There are lots of great new products in their new range.
That’s it for now. I’m taking a break out of my work schedule to go to the La Perla fashion show at the Italian Embassy……can’t wait !
