iscd Industry Insider :: Alex Perry for Designer Rugs

Last night iscd attended the Sun Studios' in Alexandria for the unveiling of two of Australia’s leading design brands collaborating to turn Greek inspirations and red carpet glamour into rugs …and a bit of celebrity spotting too!Undoubtedly Australia’s premier couturier, Alex Perry has added a new level of glamour to our fashion industry with his breathtaking gowns. The designer ‘du jour’ for celebrity red carpet dressing and high society weddings, Alex Perry is at the top of his game. Launching his eponymous label in the 1990’s, Alex’s gowns were instantly acclaimed by the local media including Vogue Australia who rushed feature his jewelled corsets and sexy sheaths in their main fashion shoots. Fast forward twenty years and Alex has launched himself into interiors and his first foray into rug design.



Last night Alex Perry said: “I wanted to pay homage to my Greek heritage striving to create something timeless and striking. Each Design tells a different story, revealing a distinct aspect of Greece and myself.” Yosi Tal, Managing Director of Designer Rugsintroduced Ales and said he has “a certain Jois de vivre and approach to life that is incredibly positive and this reflects in his design ethos. We are very excited to collaborate with another of Australia’s leading designers. His rugs are true to his Greek ancestry and bring a fresh wave of colour to the Designer Rugs collections.”

Hand-made from 100% New Zealand wool, selected pieces feature Luscious pure silk and viscose. Weaving and carving techniques were used to create unique accents and definition.
Alex Perry for Designer Rugs is available in the standard size of 200 x 300 cm and can be custom coloured and sized to suit any interior. Suitable for commercial and residential applications, but what a great inspiration for our 'Foundation Course' Certificate IV in Design students who also complete an industry brief for Designer Rugs as part of their study.

  2. Hi, little bit i am satisfy to your design because i have 4 year exp in the same field still working and i would like to say just that you need to make more innovative design. Today everybody know that all product, goods depends on designing if we don't have good design then we can't accept product sales or customer relation. Over all you have done very well.
