Dallas-based designer Jan Showers came to her signature style from diverse and unexpected inspirations, including movies and novels, contemporary and vintage fashion, art, architecture, fine antiques, and vintage pieces. Filtered through her unique sensibility, the culmination of these influences is usually summarized simply as “glamour.” Over the course of her career—spanning three decades—she has received many of the profession’s highest honors. In January 2008, Jan received the Lifetime Achievement Award for Interior Design from the Fashion Group International. Her magazine credits alone place her in the highest echelon of designers. Architectural Digest has named Jan Showers & Associates to the AD100, its preeminent directory to the international world of design. Jan’s furniture and lighting collection—first created almost 20 years ago—is available at showrooms throughout the U.S. She has also created a complete lifestyle collection for Kravet Couture. Showers has also designed an outdoor furniture collection for Michael Taylor Designs, to be premiered in 2017, along with a hand-knotted rug series for Moattar, Inc. and a cowhide rug collection for Kyle Bunting. She travels internationally annually—often multiple times a year—in search of antiques she imports both for her Dallas showroom and for the specific needs of her clients.
