Be faithful to your own taste because nothing you really like is ever out of style.

Innovation is often the ability to reach into the past and bring back what is good, what is beautiful, what is useful, what is lasting.

Wild for Anna's Flora-The New Anna French Collection

I know I know...it is Thanksgiving weekend and I should be making lists, shopping on line, decorating the gardens...still time for all that! Watch this space!

...but today is the first truly bleak looking New England day, snow flakes are forecast and the clouds have enveloped the gardens in a chill of things to come...I need flowers,color, and light today. Hello Anna French!

Anna French's new collection Wild Flora

is filled with Fresh Vintage Florals



Delicious Damasks

and Look Twice Toiles

that Anna has infused with contemporary twists. The printing of each of these new papers is reminiscent of the the elegance of classic venetian chests and mirrors while her use of subtle foils,

tarnished mirror effects,
rich flocking,


and white on white

make them all new and contemporary with hints of glimmer,reflective images and fiber optic illusion.
