American Dreams: Ribbon Haute Couture
By Norma Jaeger Hopcraft
I walked on East 38th Street, in the Garment District, and a window display captured my gaze. Inside the store I found eye-popping color and infinite variety of patterns. I was in a ribbon store! Look at this gorgeous stuff!
Did you say you were interested in stripes?
How about dots?
Do you prefer checks?
Embroidered ribbons...
Dragon, anyone?
Flowers?
This is less than 1/3 of the store.
Looking for white?
More stripes...
Top shelf - antique tassels.
The view toward the back of the store.
Here's some ideas -- what you could do with some of the ribbons.
This shop won a Zagat rating four years in a row!
This is the shop's name. Come see! It's a world unto itself.
