Chair, draperies, pillows and art by Amber Davidson at Stella Dallas |
LAST CHANCE . . . a lot of fab pieces sold at Thrift Studio's preview party last night ($125 per ticket), but you'll have another chance tonight ($25 per ticket) to buy furniture, art, and accessories before the popup opens to the public on Saturday. Buy your tickets online or at the door.
The scene last night brought out the best in Dallas interior design, including host committee member Emily Summers, who bought nine tickets and dashed through the space with her team in tow, buying as much as she could. I bumped into architect Richard Drummond Davis, who said he wouldn't have missed the evening since most of the host committee was packed with designers he'd worked with in the past.
If you're wondering what Thrift Studio is, it's a twice-a-year shopping event put on by Dallas-based Dwell with Dignity, and featuring beautiful rooms by some of the best designers in town. Everything you see inside the rooms are for sale, and everything benefits Dwell with Dignity.
Because everything is donated from the best showrooms and designers' collections (and sold at a fraction of what it would normally cost), this sale has become on of the most sought after in town.
Here are a few shots from each room—if you want to see more, you've got to go experience it for yourself!

P.S., see Laura Lee Clark's room in my previous post, below! Laura Lee did the window design for Thrift Studio, and as John Phifer Marrs said last night, she set the bar high for everyone.
