Kaffe Fassett at the V & A by Kaffe Fassett

This book is published in conjunction with a three-month exhibition of the designer's work at the V&A in October 1988. The author urges his readers to develop their own colour sense and experiment with different combinations by demonstrating his own creative response to the treasures of the V&A, particularly in the ceremic, glass and enamel collections. Fassett uses motifs such as stars, diamonds, stripes, flowers and fauna and the myriad forms they take in the decorative arts of different cultures. The designs featured in this book include a coat based on blue and white china and a cushion and sweater inspired by Islamic tiles in brilliant blues and greens. Kaffe Fassett is also the author of "Glorious Knitting" and "Glorious Needlepoint".

Fassett, Kaffe: -

Kaffe Fassett is internationally-acclaimed as one of today's leading contemporary colorists and textile designers. Color and pattern are his obsessions, with his first venture into textiles being in yarns and knitting, and knit-garment design. Soon, his expertise extended to needlepoint, fabric, and quilt design. Kaffe Fassett's unique garments have been commissioned by Barbra Streisand, Lauren Bacall, Ali McGraw, Shirley Maclaine, Helen Frankenthaler, and many more. His fabric lines for Westminster Fabrics are highly sought after by quilters worldwide.
