Dee Dee's Rules

Meeting Dee Dee

By November 24, 2021 June 25th, 2022 No Comments

We can all remember being in grade school and hating on the gorgeous leggy girl for being so damned smart and always getting the highest grades – what with their photographic memories and all. And, how can we forget their supper human ability to toss a pom-pom and cheer
everyone up, win or lose. Can you recall having to wait in line to get your algebra questions answered by the class hott genius? …You can’t? What do you mean, you cannot remember doing that! Well if you can’t, welcome to the club. The combination of “stunning-architect-designer fashion-genius” is not a term we have used often, and that is why Dee Dee Taylor Eustace issuch an enigma. Add to her impressive list of accomplishments: television personality (star of HDTV’s Real Designing Women), appearing on Oprah (not once but thrice), and author – this
force of nature is definitely exciting.

She jetted into Montreal to have her shoot done at the KA studio, and one of our favourite shots is the one which shows her multitasking skills to perfection. When her phone rang, a call from her Toronto office, on a Friday afternoon, and after asking if she may take it as it would be important – she answered it and never lost the pose while discussing a client with her office. Now that is definitely skills.

“Whatever it is that you could desire; you will find in New York City. I’ve always had a certain “Joie de Vivre” in the way I go about my life; but being here truly makes everyday taste like a piece of candy.

What is your favourite part about living in NYC

The overindulgence and under indulgence of everything. Culture, Design, Fashion, Art, Architecture ; whatever it is that you could desire; you will find in New York City. I’ve always had a certain “Joie de Vivre” in the way I go about my life; but being here truly makes everyday taste like a piece of candy. There is always something new and sweet to experience. Just recently, my daughter and I went for a stroll down to the Flower District (I know, a district for “flowers”!) and it was just overwhelming – we filled our baskets with the most beautiful coloured flowers we could find – it is also the simpler things like this, that made me fall in love with New York.

What are your favourite spots in NYC for :

A cup of java : St. Ambroeus, on 76th and Madison – just love the European vibe

Shopping for shoes : Jimmy Choo – Madison

Theatre : The Met, just recently saw La Boheme. I always love to watch the divas take their bows.

Relaxing : The Rooftop Pool at the Soho House

Restaurant : The Garden at The Four Seasons.

Getting away from it all : The Ocala farm luxury retreat from BG Signature – just heaven.

I am complex; an architect, designer, mathematician, athlete, mother, lover of fashion, and I also love to work as hard as I play. I love giving and spoiling people! I just love beauty – everything is beauty
