This site is where ART meets FASHION. It is a must for textile and design professionals, along with media affiliates who benefit from being in tune with the direction of FASHION, ART, & DESIGN. More specifically, it is a portal to provide current information related to the printed and embellished fabric trends for lifestyle, apparel & home furnishings. -Rodney Prince

Dignitary Style
All the world is watching the stylings of Michelle Obama since she has made a stand to support American designers and especially those who are ascending to new heights with their collections. The French have their own sytlish first lady, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, who has her eye on a fashion new-comer, French designer Alexis Mabille. He isn't afraid to take chances while he is building a name for himself and carving out a niche with the fashion elite by showing during Couture Fashion Week in Paris.
Mabille creates a playfully sophisticated conversational look (above) that is somewhat kitchy, but the effort to put some originality in the novelty of a nautical theme is absolutely adorable. A muted & tonal fractual print (below) is used on one of his evening looks by using an abstract applique to create an elongated hombre effect that is elegant and scintillating.
