Along with a plethora of talented vendors we showcased our work at the Unveiled show on Melrose Place in Los Angeles. We collaborated with Isari Flower Studio to bring our Missoni inspired table concept from the inspiration to creation. The trademark zigzag print of Missoni, along with it’s textured fabrics served as the main palette for our tablescape.

We first started with a fabric in shades of peaches, greys, and rust. We wanted the flowers to match the soft flow of the fabric, by winding down the table and gradiating from one color to another. The place settings were each set on a small cake stand for height, the chiffon fabric and velvet ribbon treatment draped over the edges for added drama.

We placed flowers in pots and turned them onto their sides, and placed them onto a copper garden stand so that the gradiating floral effect could be seen from another view.

Because we were bringing the runway to the tabletop we accessorized the napkins. We layered them with the same zigzag fabric in a chiffon version, velvet ribbons, copper chains (to resemble jewelry) and mother of pearl accents.

The accessorizing did not stop at the copper necklaces on the napkin treatments. Sweet & Saucy Shop accessorized the cake with copper jeweled accents, the bouquet was accessorized with copper wire and we also accessorized the laser cut invitation with mother of pearl and a necklace!

The laser cut invitation with jeweled accents matched the menu and emulated the shape of the plate. The dark brown accents were a rich contrast against the softer palette of the tablescape. The large anenome on the cake matched the lovely anenomes in the bridal bouquet. From the runway to the table we were inspired by Missoni.

    Amazing…love the bright color scape in contrast with the calming earthy tones. Accessorizing as you do reminds me of a dress coming to life when you finally get the jewlery on. You gals always make your inspirations come together on a grand scheme.
    Love it!

    Love, love, love the invitations!!! Do you mind letting us know where you got that shape for the invites? Or did you design the style and have them cut? It’s such a cool take on a custom invite vs. the everyday rectangle/square!!
