Paisley by Tina Skinner
Paisley textile designs are organized into a sweeping visual survey, from orderly foulard patterns to elaborate borders, from experimental media to ornate florals; this book delves into printed and woven fabrics alike. More than 550 full-color photographs of paisley designs provide an invaluable optical reference of variations that span more than five decades of fabric design, including French and Italian couture fabrics. It is the most comprehensive pictorial guide produced on the subject.
