Think pink. And purple. And glamorous. Mix them together, and you’ve got the palette for a woman’s bedroom suite created by designer Jamie Drake. Perfect for the fashionista who revels in luxurious textiles, the lively colored room was wrapped in fabrics designed by Jamie for his new collection for Schumacher.
“Fashionable ladies need to sleep, too,” says Jamie. “I wanted to tuck them into bed with style. Gilt antiques, contemporary furniture, bright colors, and high-gloss surfaces are the motifs that give this boudoir the sheen of luxury.”
In the same way that an elegant shawl might accompany a festive ball gown, a lavish silk moiré applied to the walls wraps the room in a vibrant shade of fuchsia. To contrast the watery look of the moiré, a structured square pattern in cut-silk velvet embellishes the bed frame.
