Spring Awakening

Yes, it's spring, even though it's snowing (!) at the moment. The daffodils and hyacinths in my garden are huddled together as if to say, "Okay, let's just wait this out." I know just how they feel--this sulky weather is the perfect excuse for lots and lots of hours in the studio. I'm designing a new collection for my spring/summer show (end of April...stay tuned). A short trip to Los Angeles yielded some lovely fabrics...oh, so lovely. Hilariously beautiful silk prints, luxurious chunky linens, weirdo neutrals mixed with neon brights, and a few surprises. Here is a tiny advance peek at one of my new pieces.
