Brocade For Breakfast ...

From the first time-moment I watched The Sound Of Music movie at age nine I instantly knew that fabric is a free thinking marvelous thing I couldn’t do without. The idea that Maria could free the Von Trapp children by simply cutting up her tapestry drapes and making the children pattern play clothing gave me a creative license and something clicked in my head. Fabric has many functions and like Maria I can do whatever I want with it too.

Brocade is my favorite textile category and if all fabric disappeared on this earth but only it survived I would be most grateful. To the touch brocade has substance but soft and fine. Visually It has a rich emotion just looking at the flowers and petals breathing in and out just so beautifully, it can take you to a lovely place in your head and feeling so well dressed-so prepared for anything it would almost complete you. It is fantastic in a dress better in a floral jacket even a topper coat basically all day long breakfast, lunch and dinner. From desk to cocktails it is the new second skin and rich textiles are here to stay.
