HYPING A CHAIR THAT'S ALREADY BEEN HYPED - A NEW "BEEN DONE" CHAIR TO RAVE ABOUT!

Some in the "interior design" world might find this post passe....but I am a lay person who is simply discovering home furnishings I like and then writing about them. The reason I say this...is that this little chair pictured above and below was all of the rage way back when it was introduced by Kartell back in 2005. Well for me, in this world, this chair is having a revival!
This is the Mademoiselle chair by Philippe Starck for Kartell...I saw this chair for the first time a few weeks ago when I was shopping at the Kartell store on Robertson Blvd. here in West Hollywood.
Over the last few years, the Mademoiselle Chair has been written about, featured, talked about and lauded by the design world...but not by Nbaynadamas! I love being out of step with the times...kind of charming...right?!#$%

This small somewhat dainty chair comes in a variety of colorful fabrics including covered in this cheery blue and pink print above and in this bright kaleidescope like Missoni floral fabric featured below.

With clear polycarbonate legs (nice way of saying plastic legs or some say lucite) and a fabric seat, this armchair is versatile and can be used so many settings.

Check out the photo I found above from a Starck enthusiast. In the photo above, the chair is featured against a wall in a very classic setting next to a gold leaf console, chinoiserie lamp and walls covered with decorative molding and paneling.
