This seems to me to be an odd time for a one-hour special on Paris Interiors, but HGTV's program guide lists Homes of Paris as airing Monday, April 16 at 12 p.m. Mississippi-born textile connoisseur Lisa Fine's sumptuous 7th-arrondissement flat is supposed to be featured during the special, so I care about getting the date right. As the images above show, Fine is inspired by India's embroidery, silks, and lush colors -- pink with orange, a few hits of pistachio-green -- as well as Turkish and Moroccan styles.

That is a strange time! I would like to see her apartment though. Do you know what other homes will be featured?
POC,
Here's the listing:
Homes of Paris
Nancy Glass hosts this one-hour special, which features the homes of six residents of the City of Lights and captures the diversity of Parisian style. Guests include Vincent Darre, fashion designer for the House of Fendi, a young man who appreciates the past, and whose home, filled with European antiques, reflects it; and Marie France Cohen, proprietor of BonPoint, a couture clothing store for children, whose apartment is adorned with subtle yet warm colors and fabrics.
IN THIS EPISODE:
• Marie France-Cohen
• Vincent Darre'
• Final Segment
• Yeatman-Eiffel
• Lisa Fine
• Mahin de Malleray
• Martine Assouline
i love the floors
Thanks for the heads-up!
Thanks Courtney! I sure wish I had Tivo!
Hey Courtney: The guest room was her closet! I loved it. My own closet is decked out similarly -- though not as luxuriously.
Thanks again for the lovely blog,
Terry
