Elliott Berman Textiles

This high-end shop has been supplying designers in Los Angeles, Chicago and beyond with colorful and stylish fabrics for 50 years, sourcing wares from France and Italy. Its website offers swatch ordering and samples—great to check out before you commit—so you can sample Chanel, Versace and Hugo Boss prints before creating a runway-inspired blouse, skirt or scarf that’s as beautiful as one you’d find in any store.
