for her stunning fabric designs‚ into which she integrates
exotic feathers or silver‚ copper‚ or gold leaf. these exquisite
textiles‚ created through a unique procedure that has
become her signature‚ have made her a favorite of fashion
leaders such as emanuel Ungaro‚ chanel‚ christian lacroix‚
and others. (she also produced the dress helen Mirren once
wore for the oscars‚ and sharon stone is said to be a fan.)
recently‚ she has expanded her reach‚ moving into the
realm of home design with collections of linens‚ wallpapers
and pillows that glow with oxidized leaves of gold and
other precious metals. the oxidation‚ she has said‚ creates
beautiful nuances in the design.
