…………………….TAUPE & BLACK is super CHIC!…….It can be as BOLD as Black and White……but it’s some what more subtle, and toned down……..Yasmeen and Christy at the left, are both wearing jackets made out of a CHENNILE, SILK & WOOL blend JACQUARD FLORAL fabric that was made exclusively for me in Italy. This company was a big supplier for Armani……Nadege, in the center, is wearing a side two button sweater cardigan in the same jacquard pattern as the jackets….I was able to use the same yarns as the jacket for the sweater….NADEGE, at the right, is wearing a CHEVRON pattern jacket and skirt in the same Taupe and Black Chenille, Silk and Wool blend. Her Chevron jewel neck sweater in the matching Taupe and black is also in the same yarns as the jacket……Sometimes the yarns used for a woven jacket are compatible for knit machines, and some times not….I was lucky as in this case the yarns worked…….In the center photo, Nadege is wearing a short black suede side zip bootie that I previously posted from a Neiman’s catalogue….ALL of the accessories….gloves, shoe, tights and the lacquered earrings and belt were all black.
