Once again, Kips Bay Decorator Showhouse Palm Beach has delivered a tour de force of fearless design, with no shortage of trimming. As a proud sponsor, we watched beaded fringe, tassel tiebacks, and the moments in between sweep across spaces in bold, expressive waves. Explore our favorite year-defining details you don’t want to miss.

 

THE MAME DENNIS BY DANIELLE BALAINIS DESIGN

 

Swaths of Sophie Beaded Fringe in Wedgewood embellish the edges of this pattern-drenched bedroom. Coordinating Sophie Tassel Tiebacks pull back each drape to reveal curated niches and airy windows.

This powdery blue is echoed in throughtful additions of the Flanders Cord in Wedgewood on stacked ottoman seams and slipper chair seats. Most notably, the cord is elegantly appliquéd on each scalloped valence that crowns the mirrored drapery.

 

 

 

Inside the bed canopy, the Tiverton Gimp in Patina finishes the fabric edge opposite the Sophie Beaded Fringe. A classic metallic accent, the Oberon Rosette in Bronze embellishes the tented center.

 

 

 

Adorning two brass handles, Bloom Key Tassels in Hydrangea bring out the spectrum of blues from the wallpapered cabinetry.

 

 

 

A final pop of joyful color, the Sophie Tassel Tieback in Wedgewood is hung from the towel hook in the checkerboard bathroom.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ENTERTAINMENT COMMAND CENTER BY TARTAN & TOILE

Embellishing the entrance to a sumptuous nook inspired by Marjorie Merriweather Post, Sophie Tassel Tiebacks in Dijon frame a space made for all a good host's hobbies.

 

The scalloped valence above is outlined by the Swiss Velvet Grosgrain Piping in Olive, while French Double Welting in Hunter Green accentuates the arched silhouette on the face of each panel.

 

Beside this sanctuary, two slipper chairs are finished at the seams by the same Swiss Velvet Grosgrain Piping, creating sublte continuity with a contrasting edge.

 

The ajoining powder room receives a ruffled bath curtain, elevated by the statement-making addition of Aspen Bullion Fringe in Poppy on its leading edge.

 

 

TIKI TENT BY RIVER BROOK

Beneath the thatched roof of this cabana-striped bar, a myriad of fringed seating unfolds, inviting guests into a playful setting for a mid-day cocktail.

 

At the center of this whimsical show, a lilac loveseat is adorned with the Céline Ombré Brush Fringe in Fig, an ombré of color that reflects the patterned fabric's range of purples. Picking up on this rich hue, Sabine Key Tassels in Boysenberry adorn the corner of each tiger-striped throw pillow.

 

Mirrored round tables on either side sport characterful wrought iron chairs, each with a Saisons Brush Fringe-adorned seat cushion in Sun.

 

THE CHAMPAGNE CONSERVATORY BY THE LEWIS GALLO DESIGN GROUP

The epitome of classic Palm Beach, this sun-drenched conservatory is awash with delicate key tassels, tailored fringe, and timeless borders.

 

A Chippendale-style sofa with French Grosgrain Piping seams in Azure sports two ikat throw pillows framed by the Aurelia Brush Fringe in in Wedgewood. Between them, a lumbar pillow with a Flanders Cord edge in Petal receives a mitered Bagatelle Velvet Border by Timothy Corrigan accent in a coordinating colorway.

 

 

The armchair opposite features cushions in the same blue fabric. The back cushion is defined by a central stripe of French Grosgrain Ribbon in Azure. The seat cushion is edged with the dimensional Bagatelle Marabout by Timothy Corrigan in Hydrangea.

 

Drapery wraps this airy room, adorned with the Ilana Beaded Fringe in Petal and Aristotle Greek Key in Petal on every leading edge. Outlining the valence above the entrance, the French Grosgrain Ribbon in Salmon creates definition between the two patterned fabrics.

 

 

 

Hanging from each Flanders Cord-outlined valence panel, Calisto Key Tassels in Bleu offer a traditional silhouette and point of continuity between the bamboo ceiling molding and blue fabrics below.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

LUCINDA’S LOUNGE BY KATE IVES DESIGN

Amidst maximalist pattern and statement-making palettes, this canopied day bed provides a calming oasis.

 

Sophie Tassel Tiebacks in Salt hold back each gathered bed curtain, while the scalloped valence above is outlined by the French Grosgrain Ribbon in Maize, which also crosses the ceiling of the bed canopy. The sunshine yellow is echoed below by the French Grosgrain Piping in Maize above the bedskirt.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bedside, an armless accent chair is tufted with the Le Jardin Silk Tufts in Cornsilk, underscored by the same French Grosgrain Ribbon in Maize and Bali Cotton Cord in Cream. The cord appears again circling each end of the lengthy bolster pillow.

 

MRS. HOWELL’S RETREAT BY EERDMANS

Inspired by fictional character Mrs. “Lovey” Thurston Howell III from Gilligan’s Island, this "shipwrecked" sitting room is teeming with sailcloth whites and sea-blue teals.

 

Crowning the ensemble, a ruffled room-wrapping valence is adorned with the wave-like weight of the Seychelles Wood Teardrop Fringe in Caribe. Seamlessly coordinating, the more delicate Seychelles Wood Bead Fringe hangs from the top and bottom edge of each lampshade with rope-like hangers.

 

The face of three aqua lumbar pillows are framed with the lustrious contrast of Bagatelle Braid in Gardenia by Timothy Corrigan, accomplanied by the subtle addition of Cambridge Cord in Aquarius at the seams.

 

Continuing the soft ivories, the Annecy Gimp in Cream and White frames the plush upholstery of an inviting armchair, complemented by a coordinating Cord on the seat cushion.

 

At the room's center, two ombré-striped slipper chairs are skirted with the Rouen Tassel Fringe in Tourmaline, layered with a Orsay Silk Ribbed Border header in Aqua Melange.

 

WHERE PLANS GET CANCELED BY COLLEEN ROSAR DESIGN

 

The Torero Beaded Fringe in Jade took the spotlight on each Roman shade and upholstered pelmet, subtly layered with a refined row of Dorset Tweeded Border in Honey. The Cambridge Strie Braid in Pollen accentuates these muted yellows with a cheery pop of color on pleated sconces.

 

Playing on the room's earthy corals, the Terrace Chainette Fringe in Camellia is a final fringed touch, skirting a slubbed fabric footstool.

 

THE MAHJONG LOUNGE BY LTA INTERIORS

 

Skirting the curved banquette that wraps around a sculptural mahjong table, the Orsay Silk Woven Crete in Spring Greens and Gold is elegantly layered over the sleek Barcelona Ombré Fringe in Vert, a show-stopping addition of style and vibrancy. Silhouettes of the surrounding drapery are elevated with the sophisticated addition of Seychelles Wood Bead Fringe in Onyx.

 

 

THE CITRON SALON BY PAPPAS MIRON DESIGN
Like a ray of lemony sunshine, this chic salon includes more details than meet the eye. Wrapping the lime-washed walls, the solid contrast of French Grosgrain Ribbon in Nude offers a minimal alternative to classic wall molding, echoed above by the Bali Jute Cord in Burlap where each wall meets the ceiling.

 

Finishing each canary-yellow cushion, the Cambridge Cord in Corn creates a classic finish at every seam.

At the entrance, a linen-white drape is held back by the textural touch of two Abrielle Jute Tassel Tiebacks in Burlap, an organic, layered take on a traditional double tassel tieback.
