THE SCOUT
From Suzan Fellman, silky, scarf-covered ottomans and chairs with a vintage touch
Designer uses an Yves Saint Laurent square to top off a high-style ottoman with Lucite legs.
Inspired by low-cushioned seats seen in Marrakech and a client's closet filled with high-fashion accessories, interior designer Suzan Fellman has created a couture vanity ottoman using her own collection of vintage designer scarves. Perched on tapered Lucite legs, the piece is covered in a silk square by the late Yves Saint Laurent and costs $2,800. To ensure quality and longevity, Fellman will use only fabric-backed scarves from her own extensive collection. A slipper chair, which requires three scarves to cover the small, high-backed seat, is also available, with pricing on request. Fellman plans to do one-off scarf upholstery on found pieces. "Next up," she adds, "casting a scarf as a cocktail table top." Suzan Fellman Showroom, 678 S. Cloverdale Ave., Los Angeles. (323) 936-7759 or www.suzanfellman.com.
