I like to surround myself by all my inspiration and fabric developments as I
pull my final collections together, in this case SP15. My PANTONE FASHION +
HOME guide is always at my side - you can see how dog eared it is! When I'm
working with several different suppliers the PANTONE guide is essential - we all
work from it and that way we all have the same color references.

The modern workspace is designed to maximize creativity and promote
engagement amongst the staff. The glass work table is furnished with Red Eames
dow-based shell chairs and David's vintage DCM chair. David's seasonal mood
board leans against the back wall. Cacti, a George Nelson eye clock, and a
painting by Ernest Trova add color to the work room and promote a creative
environment for all to work in.

Spring is all about multi-color florals and shades of romantic neutrals,
especially when combining the right shades of nude and blush seen in Pantone
7611U and just a pop of green 606U.

My workspace is organized chaos with a mix of inspiration materials, CADs,
fabrics and samples. I prefer to work at a large table where I can spread out,
play with color swatches and create vignettes within each collection. My
can't-live-without items are my Pantone fan for color inspiration, colored
pencils/pens for quick sketches and an iced black tea to keep me going.

Our PANTONE Swatches are the starting point of our seasons as color sets the
tone of our collections--whether bright and vibrant for spring and summer or
dark and edgy for fall and holiday--it quickly influences the designs each
season. The board with our PANTONE Swatches and fabric swatches lives right in
the middle of our design room and it’s hard not to be inspired by it when you
walk past multiple times a day--for example we chose our Bellini Orange (PANTONE
Golden Ochre 16-1346) and it inspired our flirty short dresses and easy weekend
jumpsuits because the color had such a great energy to it. We also tend to cast
our models a few seasons ahead, so it’s nice to have a face attached to the
collection we’re designing at the time so we can imagine her in those
pieces.
