I loved the dressing room in this Miles Redd designed home which was featured in the August 2010 Town & Country magazine.

And, while we are not all fortunate to have the space for a dressing room….let alone the budget for the carrara marble and Fortuny wallcovering…the framed fashion prints would be easy enough to recreate.
A search for “fashion illustrations” on eBay yielded these results (and 100s more).

Here are a couple from Art.com….
Etsy also has some nice options….

Of course, 1stDibs has several options as well, but they get up there in price. However, as you can see from above, a quick search of the web will yield a plethora of affordable results.
I am headed to the Big DC Flea Market (with Eddie and Jaithan as my tour guides!) in a few weeks and may keep my eyes open for some prints. One of the homes we are looking at in Dallas has his and hers bathrooms in the master (joined by a large double headed shower that our realtor has coined the “party shower,” kind of funny). So, I may just be able to pull off something similarly girly in my new space!

I almost decorated a previous bedroom of Isabella’s with fashion illustration prints, found at ZGallerie. It would have been a fun room to do…I would ADORE having a dressing room, I recall seeing the one you’ve shown. Fabulous. Janell

August 30th, 2010 at 4:09 pmI think you should run with this idea. I did something of the sort in my daughter’s bedroom. She has two original renderings from costume designers. One was from Beverly Sill’s estate! They are chic and timeless…like a classy gal!
My youngest loves to create little fashions of her own with cutouts from catalogs. I drew the dress form, scanned it and printed tons of copies on cardstock. All she has to do is grab one and dress it when she’s inspired. Your little one might enjoy this one day!
