    From 'Bathroom Remodeling: A Do-It-Yourselfer's Guide' (1988) by Paul Bianchina

    "For the ultimate bathroom relaxation, the Environment Masterbath™ from Kohler® is definitely the answer. The self-contained unit starts w/a two-person whirlpool bathtub beneath a padded deck, enclosed in a teakwood interior. Added to that is the unit's ability to artificially re-create a variety of nature's soothing climatic conditions: sauna, steam, sun, wind, and gentle rain." 📚 Bathroom Remodeling: A Do-It-Yourselfer's Guide (1988) by Paul Bianchina 🪴🪴

    So, this is how yuppies bathe 🫧 From 'Bath Design' (1986) by Philip Mazzurco

    At first I thought this'd definitely be Patrick Bateman's bathroom, but he'd have tortured, and killed that little tree...

    Chloé 🍂Fall/❄️Winter 1983 Ready-to-Wear 🚿 feat. the "Shower Dress"

    In 1983, Karl Lagerfeld - a lover of trompe-l'oeil (the deception of the eye) - designed a sheath dress w/an embroidered shower head for Chloé, called the "Shower Dress." Over a decade later, he created the "Light Bulb Dress" for Chloé's 1996 SpringSummer collection. Lagerfeld had a great talent for using clothing as a canvas on which to transform the mundane into the extraordinary.
