Paris: The Fabric of a City



For more than three centuries, Paris has been synonymous with beautiful clothes–designing them, making them, and wearing them. Fashion changes, but the city remains a haven for those who are passionate about needlework in all its forms. In this lavishly illustrated presentation, American expatriate and Paris resident Franklin Habit will give you an insider’s view of how the city (and the nation) are seeking to preserve noble textile traditions while also innovating to survive in the modern world. Find out where the locals hunt for the best yarns and fabrics (at the best prices); see the neighborhood where hidden workshops–some a century old–still produce samples that appear on runways and in showrooms; and learn about which French spinners, dyers, and pattern designers you’ll definitely want to watch out for.
