Sweet mother of God, I would wear this until it was in shreds.
This spring, toile de Jouy fabrics are popular for both home decor and clothing. Many fabric manufacturers and fashion designers, including Ruffian, Carven, and Oscar de la Renta, reinterpreted the scenic pattern for their spring 2013 runway collections. Compare the contemporary toile de Jouy designs with some examples from the Philadelphia Museum of Art’s collection. Enjoy!
