it's coming back

Toile is coming back. I've been comparing notes with colleagues and we agree wholeheartedly. OK, for sure it never really went away, but we think it's really really really coming back. Just gaze for a while at this photo and tell me you aren't amazed. KW's ubiquitous Imperial Trellis doesn't hold a candle to this!
This is the mastery of Carolina Herrera -- the interior, the dress and the model (her daughter). I saw this recently on Habitually Chic. Visit to see whole post by clicking here. But don't miss the post on the book Sister Parish Design, click here and then don't miss the link to the house tour of the Gerald Bland home here. Remember when I was telling you about my visit to his gallery in June? The man has scads of style!

I agree. I just hope that people don't try too hard with toile...I am nervous about seeing "modern interpretations" - I like the old school approach - all toile all the time - put it EVERYWHERE in the room. Margot - I am addicted to this blog! xo Tommy
Such an amazingly striking image. I love how versatile toile is - surprisingly so. These primary colours make it seem so updated!
