Nina Campbell


I am fortunate to say that I have gotten a new friend. The grande dame of British design Nina Campbell was with me in South Africa. She was just the most delightful and charming, funny, unstuffy and unpretentious person. We shared that neither she nor I had formal training and we both have a certain travel and entrepreneurial streak. I know that we will be traveling together really soon. She was a blast!  We talked about going to Scotland together and I’ve never been…maybe!

    I love Nina Campbell’s work and you must go to Scotland…what a beautiful country. My mother was born there and I have a great aunt in Perth who will turn 105 this August!!

    Wow. Nina Campbell. Why not collaborate
    on a fabric line or linens.

    I’ve seen her home in shelter magazines and it is quite atractively decorated.

    Helen.

    I met Nina Campbell in London in 2008. She was charming and wonderful then also. I think she’s great.
