Fran Sude Fran Sude wakes up every morning thankful for everything good in her life. She has loved her work from day one. Frankly, she says, it doesn t feel like a job, but more like a passion. Fran was born and raised in New York, which has benefited her greatly in terms of her sense of style and love of both the apparel and home markets.

Fran worked her way up to the head of sales and merchandising for the top dress house in the Late 1970s. She was the junior buyer for Frederick Atkins buying office, which gave her a keen sense of the importance price points make in the sale of a product. Throughout her career the one thing Fran has always loved is the use of color in garments: woven and knit, solid and printed. She opened a 2 piece career dressing business and was responsible for re-coloring prints customized for each order. It was a very successful endeavor! Feeling that there was more that could be done to inspire designers, Fran took her passion for the business of color and founded Design Options, Inc. in For over 20 years clients have come to Design Options for color direction best suited for their market, fabrication and season. Whether it s an upcoming color, style, detail, or fabric, Fran is known for having an excellent eye for the hottest trends.
