From the 2012 Architectural Digest Home Design Show. The New York Design Center, along with 9 of their Access to Design designers, each imagined 2 place settings for their dream dinner party guests - all with one thing in common - they are no longer living. Set in a glamorous haunted mansion, the designer's tablescapes represent a different personality from the past, challenging their 18 dinner guests to Guess Who's Coming to Dinner.

I hope you enjoyed this very cool idea from the 2012 Architectural Digest Home Design Show. Now, I must ask YOU, if you could have dinner with any 6 people no longer living, who would they be? Here are my six and this is very hard for me but here we go:
- Mary Colella (my mom's mom whom I never knew)
- James Dean
- King Tut
- Coco Chanel
- Marie Antoinette
- Julia Child
I have a feeling this would be one heck of a table conversation going on here with all these amazing people!!
I am looking forward to your picks, it is really a challenge to just pick 6 people!!

Two gorgeous men to look at, two politically incorrect women to laugh with, and a witty writer. AAaah !x
I love how they seat Tintin, Salvador Dali and Farrah Fawcet all together. What a conversation that would be!
My six are...
1. Bill Murray
2. Wes Anderson
3. Marie Antoinette
4. Frank Sinatra
5. Sophia Coppola
6. Anthony Bourdain
I can't count to 6, obviously !!! I'll add another woman for good measure :
Margaret Rutherford, what a lady !
oh lots of good ones here Love Bill Murray and Frank of course Such a hard choice to pick just 6 or even 10 for that matter. Would be a real fun time around the dinner table!!
