Before and After: The View's Backstage Makeover

January 14, 2009

When I chatted with Thom Filicia the other day, he shared a few photos from his makeover of The View's dressing rooms. As you can see from this shot, before Thom took over, the show's dressing room was beige, blah, and uninspired.

To see Thom's vast improvement on this dressing room, read more.

Using gender-neutral colors and a bold mural, Thom created a dressing room that allows stars to relax in a stylish environment before appearing on the show. I love the color scheme Thom used, and that sofa is a must-have as well. What do you think?

I think the couch is by Bernhardt. Here is the link http://www.bernhardt.com/upholsteryDetail.php?id=348

i don't think that is the exact room, unless one of the images is flipped...

I'm not really a big fan of murals, but I love the rest of the room!

The sofa is gorgeous. I thought that the gorgeous wardrobe may have been kept and a stylish french style could've been used. Perhaps that's just my craving for a Chaise Longue! ♥

I like about everything except the wall mural.

And what's with the high directors chair at the low vanity?

Agreed! Love the sofa, and the cart/lamp in the foreground, but I'm not so in love with the rest. I'm really surprised Thom left the ceiling looking as it does, and to be brutally honest, the walls, door, and vanity area don't appeal to me either.
