Glamourous Boudoir
This room defines glamour because it is minimal yet the objects within it are rich and eclectic. The soft cream colored fabrics contrast perfectly with the dark espresso colored floors and furnishings, creating the perfect balance of feminine and masculine.
Sheer Sedustion
The sheer fabrics of the draperies, and architecture of the bed canopy in this space create an ethereal white light that pulls you into what feels like a gateway to experiences that are not of this world. The rich chocolate color of the flooring anchors the bed, providing a sumptuos resting place to stop and smell the flowers. Everything you need to escape the distractions of life, are available in the simple allure of this enough is too much approach!
Sheer Seduction
Corrected title
serene glamour
THis is the perfect bedroom in which to decompress. the bed feels like it would be as light as air, but the dark wood floors give it stability. such a great mix of light and dark, masculine and feminine.
Gorgeous bedroom
I love this room. It look serene and peaceful. I like the clean lines of the bed linens, simple four poster drapes and the fabrics used. The dark wooden floor reflects the sunlight. The simply placed chair and bedside table make for an uncluttered space. Love, love, love it.

This room has an ethereal magic that uses only the bare essentials
to create magic. the mix of the Architectural bed to create a room
within a room floating on the dark floor without needing additional
carpets for texture and softness. The chair is a perfect counterpoint
to the restraint of the bed and the all warm white space. Glamour
at its purest sense.
Image 5 - why this defines "glamour"
Understated yet functional furnishings. with colors and fabrics that capture and embrace the light throughout, making the room feel spacious and welcoming.
Private Luxury = Glamour
Creating great spaces for your family and friends is wonderful, but there's nothing like having your own perfect, private corner of the world.
Taking time to fill your bedroom with beauty, order, and elegance that's yours and yours alone - now that's glamour.
Strict but soft
Glamour is the freedom to eschew non-essentials, to embrace the purity of white, yet create drama with a simple canopy.
Why do we love Glamour?
We love glamour because it makes us feel special. It makes us feel like "stars". If I could sleep in this room, I would feel like a "star". It compliments anyone who would be lucky enough to reside there. The chair in the corner is just waiting for someone to sit and put on a fabulous pair of shoes...the lighting, well, soft and natural, would make me feel soft and natural, the bed...how could you not look good laying there...it's always about how you feel in a room that makes it work for me.
"Aaah"
This room does exactly what it should do. It helps you shed all the days complications and brings you to a meditative space. A bedroom should be protective, an escape. You can leave the rest of the world behind here. What's more glamourous than being able to do that?
Glamour comes with high quality
Calm, serenity, elegance, good coordination of all elements and nothing unnecessary - that is good design. It is felt here.
Glamour comes with high quality not with shouting through bright colors or glittering materials. But what adds here to the glamour is that this design suits well the purpose of the room. The other images, which are not bedrooms and are using this color scheme are just boring.
Timeless Appeal
My vote goes to this room because while clean lined and contemporary, it has a soft, romantic aura, making the space seems almost timeless in its appeal. The chair is wonderfully earthy and really makes the room.
Ahhh....
The minimalist nature of this room evokes serenity along with attention to detail. The lone chair with it's architectural shape creates a focal point while the softness of the linens evokes a sensual style and glamour.
