When Maya Romanoff's namesake firm began creating its trademark tie-dyed textiles and wallcoverings in Chicago 40 years ago, it might have been hard to imagine they would make their way to Bergdorf Goodman, one of New York's preeminent bastions of high fashion. Now, the company has unveiled its first-ever retail collection, designed by New York based interior designer Amy Lau, which recently made a conspicuous debut in the carriage trade store's seventh-floor home décor department.
Appropriately dubbed the 40th Anniversary Collection, it features Half Plaid, a trippy wallpaper in Amethyst Earth, a custom colorway of purple and brown created exclusively for the retailer. It is joined by the collection's two other patterns, Snowflake and Crystal, which boast equally psychedelic sensibilities.
Bergies, as it's know to loyal customers, has complemented the collection with a line of hand-dyed leather, velvet and linen pillows and throws with Maya Romanoff's signature Sixties look. The store is also displaying the manufacturer's Indigo Earth Linen and Velvet Kanoko textiles in the form of banners and Roman shades within the installation.
Meanwhile, across town, a private celebration of the collection and the company's 40th anniversary will be held at New York's Museum of Arts and Design on March 10.

The design is highly overrated.
I feel like I'm in a bad remake
of "The Emperors New Clothes"!!
