Carolyne Roehm’s Design & Style: A Constant Thread

For more than four decades, Carolyne Roehm has been a part of American design culture with an illustrious career spanning the world of fashion, decorative arts, gardening, entertaining, and publishing.  Now for the first time, she shares lessons from her life in style – from her small town Missouri childhood to her New York fashion career that began with Oscar de la Renta – in her thirteenth book Design & Style: A Constant Thread. Roehm tells the story of launching, running, and ultimately, closing her own fashion line, and her subsequent reinvention through books, gardening, entertaining, and décor. Through it all, she shows how the constant threads of character and creativity – along with a passion for nature, color, quality, and classicism – have informed her work and style.

Sharing both iconic and never-before-seen photographs, Roehm reveals her creative process through images of her interiors, floral design, and tabletops juxtaposed with stunning photos of herself, her homes, and her clothing to reveal the true source of inspiration behind her style and fashion aesthetic. Design & Style interweaves memoir and universal lifestyle lessons resulting in a truly inspirational book.

  1. Carolyne is such a charming and down-to-earth person. Very warm and accessible, but having an extraordinary style sense. Her taste is impeccable. She has the means to realize her concepts completely, and the rest of us are enriched by the visuals she shares. I’ve met her a few times and she has been lovely. Can’t wait to see the book.

  2. She is immensely talented – gifted. I still have one of her suits my parents bought me when I first lived in New York after college. I had the shoulders reduced in the ’90s and continued to wear it. It still looks like new. It is the most glorious shade of peach pink with mother of pearl buttons. The fabric is otherworldly as are the gorgeous buttons. She was top of the heap as a designer – along with Oscar, Chanel/Adolfo (for my mother) and Carolina Herrera. Carolyne was the best though, at that time, to me and my friends. As a clothing designer she made every woman who wore her clothes beautiful. There is nobody like her. A true Renaissance woman. Xo
