Although I rarely have time to go to events, there was no way I was missing Martyn Lawrence Bullard‘s and Mary McDonald‘s visit to the Boston Design Center last Tuesday. I showered, dressed in J.Crew color block brights, and was on my way, Rizzoli books in hand to be signed. The occasion was to promote the designers’ new textile lines, Martyn Lawrence Bullard for Schumacher and Mary McDonald for Schumacher. They were absolutely charming (Martyn’s accent is too die for).
I’ve emailed several times with Mary and interviewed Martyn on the phone for stories. Both graciously insisted they remembered me. (Doubtful, but nice of them to say!) Mary said she knows my blog; that she recalls its cute and clever name. We are FB friends, so I suppose it’s possible. As I said, they were utterly charming. Must be hard to have to be so *on* with so many strangers at so many events.
I snapped a bunch of Instagram pics of the fabrics for you. I have more from MLB’s line than MM’s line because my iPhone/Instagram went on the fritz, likely from overuse. Ok, now here are the Schumacher Designer Collaborations.
