Diane von Furstenberg’s Connecticut estate
My “must haves list” as far as design book purchases go keeps getting longer and longer. I have just added a new one to the list; “
American Fashion Designers At Home.” It’s written by Rima Suqi, a contributor to T and The New York Times and it also benefits the
CFDA Foundation. The awesome thing about this
book is that it showcases the homes of 115
CFDA members, from infamous names like Diane von Furstenberg and Kate Spade to relative newcomers like Band of Outsiders’ Scott Sternberg. These fabulous interiors are just a sneak peek of what you’ll see in the book.
Dining room of Betsey Johnson-Of course, the wall colour would be pink too!:-)
Kate Spade’s Park Avenue apartment
Can you believe that this is actually a bedroom? it belongs to the wife(Annette) of Oscar de la Renta and was designed by architect, Ernesto Buch.
Tory Burch’s Manhattan living room.
There is no doubt that this book is filled with lots of “design goodness”. You could definitely place it on your Christmas wishlist too!
PS. Thank you for the juicer suggestions, the complements, and it was so funny that a number of you wanted to see a home tour. Who knows? I may just do a home tour:-)…Happy Tuesday my friends. XX
Yes! I am going to need this book! And did you see Ralph and Ricky Lauren's Manhattan place? I love it because it is SO different from all of his lines!
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday!
PS Ralph Lauren's place is in Octobers Elle Decor
ReplyDeleteCan we talk about the dining room?! Gorgeous. Simply gorgeous. I don't even have words for the large bird painting - it's too fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI canNOT believe that is a bedroom! And I love that Betsey Johnson's living room reflects her fun use of colours and design sense from her fashion! These are all pulled together so magically.
ReplyDeleteI so love the bedroom...Its stunning,chic and totally amazing!!!!
ReplyDeleteIts so hard to believe that this is really a bedroom...wow!

ReplyDeleteHi Stacey, It's Betsey Johnson all the way for me... How amazing are those chairs with the kind of fluro yellow backs and cushions... Insane. I also love the green lounge in Tory Burch's home, doesn't that leopard print pillow look amazing on it... You rock with your posts. Pruxxx P.S. Thanks for your thoughtful words about my GM. Really appreciated them. Px
