Bouclé is still the texture of the moment. Less about a dominating trend, it’s now simply the chicest detail you can add to your home for that instant high-end luxe aesthetic. No wonder it remains a favourite with design lovers.

It’s true. We just can’t get over bouclé. Only this season, it’s less about that affluent, yes, ‘rich girl’, minimalist vibe and more about designer cosiness. I’m talking layers of warmth and equally tactile fabrics. Bouclé homewares add to decor rather than dominate; they blend seamlessly with shades of chocolate, burgundy and caramel. Interiors feel inviting and lived-in, yet still ever so chic.
