What I meant is that there are idiosyncratic walks of life that may call for the drape's dramatic and frankly self conscious silhouette.Originally Posted by Film Noir Buff

♪ Conjuntion junction... ♪
A friend of mine bought that Rolf Benz sofa as the centerpiece for his San Francisco pied-Ã -terre about 2 years ago. He really enjoyed it, saying that he more-or-less "lived in it" since it not only was very comfortable for lounging about, but the little shelves made it easy to eat and drink there, as well as do work on the laptop.
He only had two complaints: "living" it it required a lot of upkeep, especially with the cream-colored leather, for which he has no one to blame but himself; when we moved to a new apartment, the disassembly damaged the wood shelving pieces such that they had to be replaced completely. I don't know if this was the fault of the install/disassembly team, or a defect inherent in the design.

This is what I meant earlier. The drape is out toward the scye rather than being more concentrated toward the middle of the chest. I like that best.Originally Posted by Manton
Yeah, but what businessman could take him seriously with those folds under his shoulders? What would people say? (If he wore it outside, instead of posing in it at home like a proper iGent)

Did I give the wrong answer? Were you hoping, as you suspected, that Manton makes all his minions purchase them as a condition of joining the club?
