Product Pick: Vervain's La Boheme is Ou-La-La

Named for the opera La Boheme, which tells the story of two young Bohemians living in the Latin quarters of Paris, Vervain's newest fabric gets us thinking "ou-la-la." La Boheme is a free-spirited, exotic embroidery that we wouldn't mind having adorn our space—and couldn't we all use a little more boheme in our lives?


“La Boheme was inspired from a Central Asian Suzani,” said Nina Butkin, vice president of design for Vervain. “We simplified the original motif and placed it in a modern layout.”


The pattern is a modern adaptation of suzani patterning and features harmonious color combinations, including Lemon Meringue, Fiesta, Flamingo, Mosaic Blue and Purple Heather.


“Its color palette is inspired by the pleasing play of warm yellows, greys and taupes against cool greys and cooler yellows,” Nina said. “It adds an interesting palette to modern-traditional interiors.”


You can check out La Boheme in the Fabricut showroom at the PDC and DCH, in the Stroheim showroom at the DDB and in Jeffrey Michaels & Co. at the DCOTA.
