Abstract "In tribute to lessons they've learned and styles they've adopted and adapted from the women in their lives, tastemakers in this book share their own formal table settings and entertaining traditions. Thirty-four style-setting women create stunning tablescapes for entertaining family and friends, some embracing a bit of grandmillennial style and some more artsy or contemporary. Throughout, these tastemakers pay tribute to women who came before them-mothers and grandmothers, particularly-by using tableware, linens, or decorative items passed down or sharing tips and lessons learned from women in their lives. Whether it's proudly incorporating a cherished family recipe such as Torta Caprese Flourless Chocolate Cake or Korean Rice Cakes with Honey, or following a mother's advice to "arrive" at your own party the way a guest would, we see how family traditions shape the way they entertain and set the stage for new traditions to be made. From formal to casual occasions, city to country, and grand to intimate, beautifully designed indoor and outdoor tables tell stories that are generations old and refreshingly new"-- Provided by publisher.
