The Details: RONDA CARMAN FINE FABRICS
by allthebest • 24 Mar ’14 • profile • 5 Comments
A HUGE thank you for all of the emails, messages and Facebook feedback yesterday! I am overwhelmed by the positive responses and reactions. ‘Fresh’ is the one recurring word I keep hearing about the fabrics (which makes me very happy). I am really very excited about this venture.
Of course there had to be tartans in any line of fabrics from Scotland. What I really love about our tartans is that they are the fun, and bright colors. But beyond the color, what I love most is the history and quality of the mills producing our tartans. One has been family owned and operated for 200 years. And while tartans were a must for our collection, we will also have 3 different weights of cashmere (shear, medium, and heavy), wools, sateens, tweeds and luxury suiting fabrics.
Yesterday I had several questions around ordering, cost, showroom, memos, books, etc.
So, I thought that perhaps it made sense to list the details here:
- All fabrics are ‘to the trade’
- For Houston designers, our first showroom is Ken Kehoe & Company at the Houston Design Center (Official opening May)
- For non-Houston, we will sell direct.
- More showroom to come later this year
- Memos and fabrics are now available
- Books are in production
- To set up an account, request memos, and order fabrics, email
- Website is underway www.rondacarman.com
- And, yes, you can order now
Here are a few of our tartans…I will post our cashmeres and wools later this week. Again, thank you for the encouraging support.

Those colors are scrumptious and bring back many fond memories of my childhood in England.
Beatutiful. How exciting!
So beautiful! What strikes me most is that they are classic yet at the same time so modern. Timeless is the best way to describe it. Congratulations to you!
