Traditionally depicting pastoral tales, printed cottons called
toiles de Jouy have been ready for a more urbane flash forward
for a long time. And four manufacturers, three American and one
British, have stepped in to do the job.
Hazelnut
New Orleans offers "New Orleans" - a linen-cotton toile bedecked
with paddle steamers - to raise funds for disaster
relief.
Hazelnut New Orleans is at 504/891-2424; its toile is $36 a yard. |
