It has been the Summer of Lilly. We launched the collection in May during Blogfest 2011, and it’s been a whirlwind of pink and green ever since.
Just when the crisp fall breeze began to blow the summer heat away, we got word that Lilly Pulitzer herself made a recent appearance in Palm Beach and took a shine to our (her) home fabrics.
Zitelli with Lilly Pulitzer
C.Orrico, a Lilly Pulitzer signature shop in Palm Beach, invited Lee Jofa representative Chris Zitelli to show the fabric line to Lilly, who quickly selected her favorites.

“In a Twist” and “Heritage Floral” were chosen as favorites, and Lilly remarked at how beautifully the color absorbed into the linen solids. As if that wasn’t enough to swell our hearts with pride, she loved the marketing materials, including the brochure and the national ad featuring the Lilly room setting.
It is truly an honor to carry on the Lilly Pulitzer legacy. We hope she chooses some of these fabrics for her own home, and we hope you do too!
