Dress Up

The perfect trimming or passementerie adds a special touch to a room design and often is exactly what is needed to make it just right. But then, you can go a step further to truly create the room of your clients' dreams. Embellish, accessorize, find the perfect accent—that's all it takes when you're dressing up a room in style.

Lafayette   This traditional master bedroom features several embellishments and accessories supplied by Lafayette Interior Fashions. Various trimmings, including the brush fringe on the window treatments and pillows, all come from the Trimmings by Lafayette collection, an all-inclusive book containing the most popular trimmings in Lafayette's inventory. Several accessories adorn the bed, including a dust ruffle and a variety of pillow styles. Hundreds of soft fashion styles and accessories are found in Lafayette's Masterpiece Style Guide notebook.
The right window treatments and accessories can turn an ordinary corner into a soft and intimate space. Here, Silhouette® window shadings from Hunter Douglas Window Fashions provide the light control of a blind, the soft and airy look of sheers and the easy operation of a shade. Constructed with fabric vanes floating between two sheer fabric panels, Silhouette raises and lowers like standard shades and opens and closes like a blind.   HunterDouglas
