Seema Krish Textiles

Nothing gets my motor running quite like gorgeous textiles, and those from my friend,Seema Krish put me into overdrive! Seema dropped by our studio this afternoon and showed me her latest collection, and in a word..it is stun-wa! What makes her work so unique are the layers of pattern and texture applied to the surface. Seema uses both printing, embroidery, and applique in her pieces giving them a very custom feel (Barneys), but psst I hear her prices are reasonable (Bloomies.)
