Mar 24, 2002 / FWD/ --- For fall-winter 2002, Cynthia Rowley jumped on the pajama bandwagon.

According the the designer, she was inspired "the comfort of home."

And indeed the collection she showed had touches of both home wear and home ware.

The influence of home ware was seen in the form of a "decorator's pillow" fabric - a pink-based printed fabric with gold and silver lamé, somewhat similar to the gold fabric in Prada's last collection - fashioned into skirts and dresses.

The dresses, cut to resemble nightgowns, were baby-doll-shaped - which isn't always such a good thing.

The skirts, however, should do well for Rowley, as their flouncy shape helps to offset the formal fabric and make them more versatile.

Rowley also used the show as an opportunity to launch her new cosmetic line, which makeup artist Charlie Green used to create what she called a "South of France-ish" look on the models' faces (translation: "Healthy cheeks, coppery eyes, soft mouth and blue mascara").

Green liked that Rowley's makeup, which comes in soft blue, feminine packaging, were "very cute and high-quality."

"It's always a nightmare when I'm told to work with a particular line, but I'm very happy to work with this one," she adds.
