As fantastic as Anthropologie catalogs are for getting the lowdown on the absolute latest in conservative-bohemian-fairy-princess garb, that opus of waifs in wide-legged pants and maxi-dresses always always looks more perfectly undone against a backdrop of vibrant and half-destroyed rooms. Scuffed, candy-colored foyers? Great. Upside-down chairs in a sun-room with walls coated in half-chipped-off paint? Bingo. A menagerie of broken architectural plasterwork? Now we're really talking. Below, 89 shots of the wonderful deteriorated spaces the brand uses in its shoots. Hold onto your floret embroidered caps, everyone.
