Instant Room
“If I were doing my bedroom right now,” says Jan Showers, “this is how I’d do it!” A few cool colors and some oh-so-soft touches—sweet dreams, indeed.
“Gosh, it’s beautiful! The softness, the way the light comes through. It’s a little heavier than a sheer, so the effect is light and romantic. I’m not a big pattern person, but I always love a stripe. Especially in ivory and pale charcoal, this stripe works like a solid. You can do anything with it.”
SOFA “I love the color of ENCINAL. It’s a great platinum that mixes so wonderfully with ivories. It’s so sexy and glam while still comfortable on my Villa Sofa.” Sofa from Jan Showers.
PILLOWS “MIRELLA ties everything in the room together. It also has weight and durability, which is important for pillows.”
CURTAINS “CLUB STRIPE hangs beautifully. When it’s draped, it looks very soft. Plus, striped curtains always make the ceiling look a foot or so higher.”
TETE-A-TETE “SILK SATIN is truly luxurious, especially the richness of the color. Use it on the Daniele tete-a-tete.” Tete-a-tete from Jan Showers
BEST FOR: SHEERS “I like the extra privacy you get from sheers on a bare bedroom window. This one is particularly ethereal and flowing.” Theo
BEST FOR: SOFA PILLOWS “I love the combination of colors and textures—velvet and satin—in the stylized Regency pattern.” Kravet
BEST FOR: MORE PILLOWS “It’s fun, and it works perfectly with the other fabrics. Use it for small pillows or one long pillow on the bed.” Schumacher
BEST FOR: BENCH “This is a trademark fabric for me. It has such a graphic quality and is easy to care for.” Hinson & Company
BEST FOR: HEADBOARD “The weight of this fabric is perfect for an upholstered piece. Use it for a headboard or a bed skirt.” Theo
BEST FOR: TETE-A-TETE “This wonderful, watery color adds a cool feeling to any room.” Rose Cumming by Dessin Founir
BEST FOR: SOFA “The nice texture and slight sheen add a feeling of luxury—something I always want in a bedroom.” Theo
