Fine Print: Designers’ Homes in CFDA Book

WWD reports that the CFDA (that’s the Council of Fashion Designers of America for those of you not in the fashion know) and glossy book publisher Assouline are publishing American Fashion Designers at Home, a coffee-table book that will showcase homes from over 100 of its members. It’s due out in September ($65, to benefit the CFDA Foundation), though it’s featured on neither Amazon nor Assouline’s own site yet.

Glimpses will include new and yes, we’ve seen them before images, including Carolina Herrera UES (that’s Upper East Side for you non-New Yorkers) co-op, Donna Karan’s Parrot Cay guest house, Josie Natori’s Paris pied-à-terre, Diane von Furstenberg’s Cloudwalk estate in Litchfield County, Ralph Lauren’s Double RL ranch in Telluride, Mark Badgley and James Mischka’s horse farm in the rolling Kentucky hills, Lela Rose’s TriBeCa loft, and Bob Mackie’s vibrant L.A. pad. And, of course, no fashion décor tome would be complete without Jenna Lyons’ Park Slope brownstone.

Here are the images online at WWD. I contacted the publicists at Assouline, begging for more . . .
