A Day with Grizzel & Mann . . . Part One.

Howdy !

Our Grizzel and Mann Rep - Molly, who we all love, came to see us and brought Rusty Koontz (of Dessin Fournir - which will be in an upcoming post!).  Grizzel and Mann represents fabric lines from some of my favorites . . .  Osborne & Little (which includes Nina Campbell and Lorca), Desingers Guild (which includes Christian Lacroix, William Yeoward and Ralph Lauren) as well as JAB, Harlequin, Christopher Farr Cloth, Kathryn Ireland, Perennials and Rose-Cummings.

Remember all of these are available through us at Lucy and Company



Yesterday I wrote of my love of Lacroix . . . so today I want to show you what came through my doors for 2012 !!  His new collection with Designers Guild.





This fabric was my most favorite in the new collection.  A sumptuous cut velvet, with a unique digital overprint in colorful floral blooms !



The wall papers are amazing, the trompe l'oeil will make you do a double take and want to touch !







Take a look at the Souvenir Collection.  A gorgeous collage of memorabilia from the house of Lacroix - all placed on a ribboned pin board, digitally printed paper and fabric !






These black and white papers are available in several other colors.

Printed carnations strewn across a bed of stripes and polka dots, he created in reference to the love of the south of France, printed on crisp cotton.

Available in 3 colorways

Ruffled love . . 



This watercolor style pattern creates the effect of flowers in an ikat style.


This cut velvet design is inspired by the appearance of a crushed striped haute couture gown with a natural jute effect ground.

This oversized lace damask, jacquard woven with a satin ground to create an almost photographic effect.  Available in black as well as white . . 

Small scale cut velvet inspired by a motif found on a vintage Provencal silk petticoat !  Mix the two together for some pretty fab pillows !!!


and in closing . . . my favorite of the group in the black colorway !  Love this so much


Thanks Molly . . . and stay tuned for the other new introductions we were privy to in a Day with Grizzel and Mann Part Two and Three !
