The Legend That Is Dorothy Draper


The design world has taken a dynamic turn with glamour. The rebirth of Hollywood Regency, seen in the works of our favorites, Kelly WearstlerJonathan AdlerWoodson & Rummerfield's, and Miles Redd, has become a classic standpoint that is here to stay. It’s been hard to find an interiors magazine in the past few years that is not in some way paying tribute to this style. It has risen in popularity mostly, I believe, due to the fact that it doesn’t matter what size your home and budget, there are elements that anyone can incorporate in their home to achieve this luxurious look. Hollywood Regency style emerged through the work of interior designers, such as Dorothy Draper, Elsie de Wolfe, and William Haines, who were hired to transform the homes of film stars in Hollywood’s Golden Age of the 1930s through to 1960s. My personal favorite of these iconic designers is the legend that is, Dorothy Draper. Here are some beautiful images of her historic work.
