Fall Palette

I talked with a lot of you at the sidewalk sale and the same question kept coming up: "What are the colors going to be for fall?"

For the upcoming season, Europe as well as the US seem to have agreed on the same color palette of rich plums, greys (with plum or taupe undertones) ink blues, browns and black as base colors, using vivid greens, autumn yellows, red and white as accents. Many mauve tones that we saw for spring in the European lines show up again for fall and look very sophisticated when combined with grey or black.

And there will be prints, big bold prints in the above colors, some of which we have in production right now.

We are Back!

Everybody has been asking us why we haven’t sent out any emailers, looks, blog updates! Well, we had moved our warehouse of 20 years and what a task that was! Trims and buttons and fabrics and stuff that we always thought we could use some day had accumulated in boxes, baskets, on shelves, under shelves and everywhere in between. Needless to say, it took us some time to go through all of our treasures, deciding on what could stay and what had to go. And now we are done, and we feel great! What a liberating feeling! All of you ’hector the collectors’ out there, want some advice? Email us, we feel like being experts in this field now.

In the meantime, beautiful new pieces arrived in our stores, some that we made (in our free time) and some that we bought for you from our favorite designers.
