Annie Kelly
Featured last week on the TODAY Show, as well as in this month’s Elle Décor, Annie Kelly’s cushion is whimsical, feminine and refined. With colors that speak perfectly to the chair’s pink lacquer, the hand painted cushion is finished with grass green piping. In addition to her many successful books on interior design, Annie Kelly’s work has been featured in every major design publication. Kelly's renovation of Frank Lloyd Wright's ‘La Miniatura’ was featured on the cover of Architectural Digest.

Kelly Wearstler
According to The New Yorker, Kelly Wearstler is "the presiding grande dame of West Coast interior design." Gold is ever present in her glitzy, edgy, SoCal style, which can be seen in multiple Viceroy hotels and celebrity homes, such as Gwen Stefani’s. Wearstler’s contribution to the Pink Wishbone Project is pure rock & roll glam, with a swirling design of heavy gold safety-pins covering the black leather cushion.

Alexa Hampton
Daughter of design legend Mark Hampton, Alexa Hampton’s awards & accolades are too numerous to list. She won an “American Spirit Award” for her work on the Trowbridge House, DC’s official guesthouse for past US presidents. She consistently appears on Architectural Digest’s AD 100 list, as well as many other prestigious lists from major design and style publications. Hampton’s cushion is striped in shimmering tones of khaki, edged with pink piping and finished with two seat-fasteners in the shape of awareness ribbons.
