los angeles textile show




Yesterday I attended the LA textile show in downtown Los Angeles. Perfect timing as next week I will start emptying my head of all the Spring 2012 ideas whirling around inside. I'm feeling as though our last trip to Costa Rica will be a great inspiration for this collection and in fact, I bought my first print artwork!! For those of you who don't know, you can buy one of a kind artwork to develop into fabric~ which then will be exclusive to you. Whoa, let me just tell you how hard of a decision that was. I used to pick out prints for BCBG and Arden B all the time, but when its your own $$ and brand its a whole new ballpark. I'm totally happy with my decision and excited about the beautiful poppy, chartreuse and teal color story that will become of it.
