10 Ultra Glamorous Bathrooms

In designer Annie Brahler's Jacksonville, Illinois, house, the master bath's chocolaty walls play up the brilliant whites of a recycled tub, curtains in Kally Almost White sheer from Hancock Fabrics, and Daltile floor and shower tiles. The crystal light fixture is a 1980s update of old-school glamour.

"I love a glamorous bathroom," designer Marshall Watson says. He turned the master bath in a Florida house into a spa-like oasis with floor-to-ceiling windows, a Waterworks cast-iron tub, a custom vanity with crystal bars, also by Waterworks, and a crystal chandelier from John Salibello. Walls are Silver Satin in Aura by Benjamin Moore.

Striped palazzo curtains in Victoria Hagan fabric from Holly Hunt hang on either side of the sunken tub in the master bath of this Michael Berman-designed Los Angeles house. They offer a graphic counterpoint to the Dunn-Edwards Perfect Pear paint on the walls and ceiling.

In designer Betty Lou Phillips's Dallas, Texas, house, gleaming silver tones enhance the room's old-world elegance. An antique mirror propped behind the burnished cast-iron Candide tub from Waterworks reflects a vintage pharmacy cabinet. Étoile tub filler, Waterworks.

"I love this washstand from Waterworks, because I can hang wet towels without having to have towel bars everywhere," designer Barry Dixon says of the bathroom in a Washington, D.C.,house. Undermount basins and Etoile fixtures from Waterworks. Sconces by Crowder. Urban Smokebell lantern by Baker.

In an Arizona house designed by Dana Lyon, the master bath, with its luxurious Empire tub and polished nickel Etoile fixtures by Waterworks, has a view of a private enclosed garden. Antique chandelier, bottles, and sign from Sage Antiques. Paint in both bedroom and bath is Dunn-Edwards's Soft Ivory.

Double French doors in the master bathroom open to the courtyard in designer Karyl Pierce Paxton's New Orleans house, screened by a ten-foot cedar fence. The sink base is an 18th-century French buffet with Kohler fixtures.

"We were so lucky to come across this marble. It's no longer available and there was just enough for the master bathroom. The architect paid a lot of attention to the placement of the veining to show off the beauty of the stone," says designer Nancy Boszhardt of the space in a New York house. Bathtub from Ann Sacks.

A vanity table links a pair of mirrored bureaus fitted with sinks. Thick slabs of honed Calacatta marble for backsplashes and counters, along with Waterworks Opus faucets and an antique gilt mirror, complete the dressy, old-world European feeling of this Seattle, Washington, bathroom by Carrie Hayden.

A glimpse of an inner space — like the arched alcove that designer Anne Miller provides here — makes a powder room feel larger.

With flourishes from sleek, stone surfaces to dramatically patterned wallpapers and luxurious soaking tubs, these bathrooms are as stylish as the celebrities they belong to.
