Yves Delorme’s bedding collection for fall 2007 plays with some of the great themes in the history of textiles—damask, ottoman stripes, and toile.
BURANO: Engaging and contemporary design between vintage and avant-garde … style that reaches back to the future … that is the spirit in which Burano was created. Bedding is printed in a damask motif, with a flatly tinted découpage treatment; an Ottoman stripe on the reverse of the duvet cover and shams balances the stylized floral. The choice of contrasting colors—chocolate and mother-of-pearl—reinforces the graphic style with a newer take on black and white.
MEDICIS: Médicis, piece-dyed and jacquard-woven in cotton sateen, is a glamorous reflection of a traditional fabric. The ecru colorway can be blended with Burano for a stylish layering of old and new.
LIBERTINE: Claret-red Libertine celebrates two icons of history and fashion—the famous fabric that originated in Jouy-en-Josas and that trend-setter, Marie Antoinette. Printed in the manner of a toile de Jouy on cotton fabric, Libertine imagines life at court in the late 18th Century. Pale charcoal drawings within the elaborate cartouches illustrate rural scenes in the garden and hamlet of the château that evoke Marie Antoinette’s fondness for arts, games, and festivals.
SHAN: In this stunning design by Pierre Frey for Yves Delorme, majestic white dahlia blooms are surrounded by graphic butterflies and printed against a juicy shade of raspberry. The stylized motif is Asian-inspired, the sublime colors and companion stripes cheerfully exuberant. The pattern is printed on cotton sateen embellished with ecru velvet piping.
