SHOWERS AT SUTHERLAND

Jan Showers hosted a seated luncheon at David Sutherland’s last week to show pieces of her latest collection. This Daphne chair is adapted from the original Showers bought in Paris–acid green silk piping shows off the lines of the chair that floats on acrylic legs. Very glam, and comfortable. Top designers Richard Trimble and Cheryl Van Duyne chatted with John Bobbitt, Jane Manning, and Bob Wagnon. Very civilized, especially when you think about competition among designers.
