Martha Stewart

Barely skipping a beat. Martha Stewart's latest catalogue, currently named Martha Stewart: The Catalogue For Living, just arrived in mailboxes all over the city, giving us the chance to officially add Martha to our Stores Guide. First off, some history. Just as Martha was beginning to get dragged through the legal system over a year ago, her first major furniture line (with Bernhardt) was nearing completion, and everyone was holding their breath over a very big investment. Would it be any good? Would anyone buy Martha's name anymore? It is now out and, you be the judge. We think she is a little fusty and traditional at times, but basically, her design team is ON FIRE. With her signature chutzpa, Martha now has an immense line of products at both high and low price points, and is nipping at Ralph Lauren's heels.
