Scout LUSH LIFE Illustrator Tony Viramontes captured the world of 1980s fashion—and its denizens, including Janice Dickinson and Duran Duran—in all its heady New Wave glamour. The work of the LA-born artist (who died of AIDS in 1988 at age 31) is back in the limelight this month thanks to an exclusive sale of 25 original drawings on luxury online marketplace 1stdibs. Bergdorf Goodman is also devoting its September windows to his creations, in conjunction with the October release of a monograph entitled Bold, Beautiful, and Damned: The World of 1980s Fashion Illustrator Tony Viramontes.

The shibori craze is officially in full swing: the traditional Japanese dyeing method is now being spotted on everything from dresses to duvet covers.

The one-of-a-kind leather wall hangings from Oriana DiNella’s new home-decor collection, ORISHIBORI. “I’ll dye anything I can get my hands on,” says DiNella, whose line, which includes linen pillows and throw blankets, is made by hand in New York City with organic indigo. “I tried dyeing leather one day and fell in love!” Lonny favorites Kindah Khalidy and Shanan Campanaro are just two of the contributors to Pattern Box: 100 Postcards by 10 Contemporary Pattern Designers.
