Fabrics From London Design Week

London Design Week at the Chelsea Harbour was incredible as always. Just surround me by fabrics and I am in heaven. Seriously gorgeous new collections were on display and I just found myself asking for more and more samples. I thought it would be nice to share with you a few images of some of the samples that literally blew me away. Here they are all mix matched together, I think it is pretty obvious the colours that tend to draw my attention, give me a blue, grey, lilac colour palette and I'm a happy person :)

Here are some of my favourite fabrics from Chase Erwin, Sahco, Donghia and Harlequin. Beautiful wallpapers from  Cole & Son.

These wallpapers from Cole & Son are just divine, I seriously wanted them all. They have a stunning collection. The ones that caught my attention were (top left, clockwise) Paradise Tree, Hartford, Tropical birds, Wild Flowers and Ludlow.

The Donghia fabric, Edith - Violet (top left) was definitely a favourite of mine. A mix of my favourite colour palette and the stitched texture is just gorgeous. The photo really doesn't do it any justice, it is one of those fabrics I literally get excited about. Bottom right is a selection of more blue tone fabrics that I love, (starting from left) Arctic Leather from Chase Erwin in colour storm, Sahco - Denim and an absolute favourite, Harlequin - Momentum Element, this is gorgeous which feels like it has a water painted effect.

For more great LDW round ups then I suggest reading Heather Jenkinson's Blog and Dear Designer's blog.

London Design Week 2011

London Design Week started yesterday and I am extremely excited about this event! With over 400 showroom brands the Chelsea Design Centre is an absolute haven showcasing new collections, and if you are like me who goes weak at the knees at the sight of fabrics then this is the place for you. I cannot wait to look at luxurious brands such as Sahco, Donghia, Zimmer + Rohde, Sanderson and so many many more. A day is obviously not enough, so much to take in. Looking forward to the design lectures, in particular the Elle Decoration talk featuring Lee Broom. If you are in London then do make sure to pop by it's definitely an event you don't want to miss out. I will be reporting back after my expeditions to the showrooms and I cannot wait to share with you all of my highlights from the show.

So are you going? Have you been? your favourite collections? Tell me tell me, I do want to know. Here are a few teasers to whet your appetite.
