This will sound like I'm fawning over Margaret Russell, but if I'm being honest I have to say her tent and tables were my favorite at Dining By Design 2007. It's a very subjective reaction -- I'm a big fan of those Isnik-inspired fabrics from Mehmet and Dimonah Iskel. And I think Paul Ludick's contemporary blue metal tables keep the vignette fresh. If I were throwing a big budget bash, Russell's Moroccan fantasy is something I would love to duplicate.
Below, I thought you might be interested in seeing the Iskel's Paris kitchen from Elle Decor, December 2006.

BTW: DBD heads to Chicago November 1-3.

It looks like she did do a wonderful job, and I love her choice of fabrics. And of course you know I love a chic tent!
I love the look of Margaret Russell's tent also, Courtney. Something very unique and innovative, yet classic at the same time. Those fabrics are so exotic and charming!
I completely agree with you Courtney, what a fabulous way to dine, Morocan style! Love the blue tables, esp. Thanks for sharing.
