Among the major jewelry collectors figures Josephine de Beauharnais. “She also launched fashions in decoration,” says architect, Bambi Sloan, who drew inspiration for her for the new JoBo hotel. She’s combined reprints of vintage wallpaper with Jouy fabric designs or striped cocardes, carpets printed with rose or leopard-skin patterns, and portraits of Josephine given a twist with the addition of contemporary accessories. An original and humorous tribute.
