To the fashion trends of last year – large colors, purple tones and velvet – this season, designers have added an unusual combination of green and pink, blue and white textiles in the style of Delft porcelain and polka dot fabrics.
Giant flowers
This season, the flowers grow especially magnificently and reach incredible sizes. Not that this was a surprise – breeders-designers have been working on the development of new varieties for several years now. Manuel Canovas is dominated by delicately embroidered specimens. Marimekko’s are simplistic and stylized. Missoni can’t resist her favorite stripes. Living in a flower garden is not so easy. It is better to use bright fabrics in the interior with dosed accents. For example, to fit only one chair or to restrict , taking as a companion a monochromatic fabric suitable for the scale.

Lilac scale
It seems that only yesterday, fashion designers declared the sacramental: “Is the new black. ” But, you see, time passed and the fabrics faded to purple. By the way, Leo Tolstoy was very fond of this shade. And not in vain – after all, it is shown to creative people. Although it is contraindicated for unbalanced individuals. Interesting color. It seems to be indicative of power and strength, but on the other hand, it evokes a languid bloc’s sadness. It looks spectacular in both thin tulle and thick cotton. It matches the pop shine of vinyl, the luxurious softness of velvet, silk overflows. Such a wealth of textures and shades allows any decorator to fully express their creativity. The main thing is that the customer does not turn out to be a nutcase.

Green with pink
Liqueur chartreuse in the 150th century was invented in a monastery near Grenoble. Its life-affirming color is almost pure chlorophyll, harvested from XNUMX different herbs. This yellow-green hue has since been named for a sweet and strong drink. Paired with delicate pink, it looks fresh, like a debutante dress at a spring ball. But until recently, such a combination was considered vulgar. But, as in the liqueur recipe, it all depends on the nuances. Green and pink make up a wonderful duet in a glossy version or in the form of a geometric ornament. As for romantic bouquets with green leaves, they evoke pleasant associations with good old England.

Peas
It’s time to sing the ditty: “I sewed a sundress in a red pea.” True, today polka dots are of any color and size for sewing outfits for the house. For some manufacturers, it resembles uneven raindrops, for others it refers to the strict structures of chemical molecules, in others it is a dotted Morse code or a neat line of wallpaper studs, gleaming with copper caps. There are even descendants of op-art – regular rows of circles that change size downward. But diversity does not deceive anyone: it is all the same cheerful peas that attract a good mood and repel troubles. Especially suitable for interiors designed in the spirit of the 60s.

Delft porcelain
When last year the famous English trendsetter Andrew Wallace, the head of Andrew Martin, promised that in 2008 there will be a lot of blue and white fabrics, it was hard to believe: again? How long? Everything was confirmed – the colors of Dutch tiles reigned on many textile stands, , Portuguese churches. These are all descendants of Chinese cobalt porcelain, which Europe tried to repeat after discovering China with all its wonders in the XNUMXth century. The plots are very diverse: scenes in the spirit of “rui”, all kinds of flowers, butterflies. Ornaments – floral and geometric, oriental motives and even images of dishes. A real holiday for fans of classics and country style.

Folklore
Designers remembered the roots. And about all at once – Slavic, Asian, Finno-Ugric … In the latest textile collections, flowers reminiscent of Palekh, blurred kilim patterns, Indian paisley cucumbers, Scandinavian snowflakes and patchwork are equally common. Even nesting dolls come across! Sahco continues the theme of Uzbek ikats and African stylized suns, Pierre Frey sets off on a journey through alpine villages. Even the luxurious Rubelli did not stand aside from the general search and decorated a simple white fabric with a pseudo-folk floral ornament. Fun folklore motives enliven not only the huts, but also the palaces.

Velvet
Saying goodbye to minimalism, decorators turned to fabrics that are pleasant in every way. Especially to the touch: velor, velveteen, flock. Velvety textures are now used even in , not to mention upholstery and upholstery fabrics. Among the hits are Venetian silk velvet, woven from historical patterns, such as Luigi Bevilagua. Aged, as if powdered with the dust of the times, Decortex fabrics. There are crinkled, etched, patterned and other variants of this rich material. But remember, velvet in the interior behaves capriciously – it can absorb light or reflect it with spots, so you have to think about the lighting especially. A good option is sconces and floor lamps directed upwards.
