Designers weren’t afraid to mix fabrics at the Design Industries Foundation Fighting AIDS' Dining by Design benefit. They put patterns, colors, and textures together in different ways to achieve a range of looks—cozy, classy, fun, and outrageous.

Jamie Drake’s table for Baker furniture juxtaposed black and white checkered napkins and placemats with a Pucci-style bright yellow, orange, and red print on the chair pillows.
Jeffrey Grubb created a wild rock 'n' roll effect for the Hangtags for Humanity table-mixing a fuzzy red faux fur rug used as the tablecloth with long swaths of tie-dyed fabric looped around the folded napkins and draped down the edge of the table.
For Annie Selke Companies' Pine Cone Hill and Potluck Studios' cozy table, the green tablecloth complimented the quilted red underlay and long napkins were edged in green and red ribbon. Vintage-looking touches like the floral patterned rug matched the throw pillows on the pale green leather chairs.
The elegant table designed by David Stark and Avi Adler for Elle Decor mixed orange throws over the backs of chairs with pale beige covers. A delicate floral pattern dominated the tablecloth.
