So you can inspect your back.<br /><br />2) A pull out valet rod or two for composing the day's outfit.<br /><br />3) A large island on which to layout, brush, iron, etc.<br /><br />4) More room for shoes.<br /><br />5) Fewer shelves, more hanging and drawers.<br /><br />6) An ottoman that is low enough to be comfortable when I'm putting on my shoes.<br /><br />7) Better light.Easy and Elegant Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09951907004091808223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2939913243601569607.post-15136886813461966112010-03-09T21:08:34.603+13:002010-03-09T21:08:34.603+13:00A fabulous post!

I could weep at the space I left behind in my previous home (a whole room) and I have now been reduced to two large closets and seasonal rotation of clothes. A family member has the most fabulous dressing room that includes a fold out ironing board and a huge table space for packing suitcases and folding clothes ready for travel. Love your blog.IslandHomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14521703119869641429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2939913243601569607.post-4528010947516968992010-03-07T22:31:12.411+13:002010-03-07T22:31:12.411+13:00Absolutely fabulous!

A place for everything and everything in its place... a very masculine space. Elegant wooden paneling, Edwardian restraint. Brown leather." Yes indeed.. I am a woman and I still want all of that.<br /><br />The architecture of this dressing room would be easy to design and install; you have heaps of beautiful examples in the photos. But noone has had live in staff since WW1 started in 1914. Who is going to wash, starch, iron, carry, fold each shirt into perfect shape, sort in colour order, stack and polish the shoes?Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2939913243601569607.post-18998150638162555252010-03-06T10:59:47.469+13:002010-03-06T10:59:47.469+13:00Oh my, I think you have covered it all, how fabulo...Oh my, I think you have covered it all, how fabulous, you have found the best images!

I left the most wonderful dressing room at our old house & 3 years after moving in here, we are still living out of the cardboard Removalist's robes in a spare room. The plans were drawn for our new dressing room & were added to MOTH's work schedule. And now I wait & wait & wait...... Fantastic post, I adore the pheasant feather boutonniere.<br />Millie ^_^Milliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15408461724832141163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2939913243601569607.post-42712810134861608592010-03-04T16:55:26.486+13:002010-03-04T16:55:26.486+13:00I got to the end and saw that insane pink hat I al...I got to the end and saw that insane pink hat I almost used for my Kentucky derby post.I hope all men see your fabulous Post.<br /> The #4-#5 dressing area's were my favorites.

I think you hit the nail on the head with the first dressing room -with mirrored doors on all of the hanging closets and drawers and doors hiding shelves and other items. Without the cabinet doors it's basically a walk in closet in my opinion! I realize they may seem fussy to some but they keep dust and light off of the clothes (because you must have a window!).<br />I tend to be overdressed as well; i'm the only guy in the office to wear a tie to the office. Most days find me in a cashmere or merino wool v neck sweater in a solid color(i have dozens)with a patterned shirt and tie with slacks. The modern man's uniform (or at least it should be). Khakis and polos are just too casual!ArchitectDesign™https://www.blogger.com/profile/01481754380363676771noreply@blogger.com
