Embracing Simplicity in Draping: Why Less is More
In this episode of 'Raising the Ball,' host Precious Stevens, affectionately known as the Draping Queen, explores the importance and beauty of simplicity in draping and event design. She discusses how adding excessive elements can detract from the core beauty of a design, advocating instead for a minimalist approach.
Precious shares personal insights, industry observations, and the benefits of focusing on clean lines, negative space, and textured materials. She also highlights the value of joining a supportive community and the educational programs she offers for mastering elegant draping techniques. Aimed at both novices and experienced designers, this episode encourages a shift back to basics, arguing that sometimes less truly is more.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
