colours and varying textures — from fine, to
chunkier appearances.
To keep up with the latest trends, our Design
team annually travel across the globe to places
such as London, New York and Milan where
fashion is ever changing. During their international
travels, they saw bouclé saturating the
market ¬— it was a luxury, statement piece and
in demand.
Create a statement wıth patterns
Abundantly elegant on its own, bouclé can also be styled with other patterns
and finishes to create a look that is rich in texture. From stripes and checks, to
florals and geometrics, this fabric will effortlessly pair with any pattern and bring
a sense of sophistication wherever it is featured.
To truly elevate a look, styling velvet with bouclé will bring a whole new level of
luxury and opulence. We find irregular, organic patterns such as mineral, marble
and woodgrain complement and enhance bouclé’s soft, woolly texture, along
with gold or brass accents, glass finishes and neutral ceramic pieces.
Although it’s mostly used as a plain, bouclé is beginning to evolve more, moving
into statement patterns. Lately, we’ve seen classic, timeless patterns such as a
simple check or houndstooth made from bouclé, bringing a modern twist on this
traditionally plain neutral fabric.
You can see this style in our latest collection ‘Mario’ — a new bouclé fabric with
a striking houndstooth pattern for added dimension.
Playful, neutral colours
While white, ivory and cream have been most used and seen in this trend,
bouclé is expanding its neutral palette and embracing earthy tones. The use
of multi-coloured yarns creates an overall melange effect, bringing depth and
enhancing the high-low texture of the fabric.
Earthy shades of green, taupe, ochre and copper are the new direction for
bouclé colours, which bring a natural and inviting feel with its tone and texture
combined. Navy blue and onyx are also great neutral additions for a calming
aesthetic.
Sophıstıcated texture
Not only is it comfortable, this soft, gorgeous texture has become more exorbitant
and is incredibly lavish. With its heavenly plush finish, the curly construction
of bouclé fabric gives an overall organic, woolly aesthetic, making this an ideal
fabric for creating warm, cosy, cocooning spaces.
From dreamy sofas, luxe ottomans and sumptuous cushions, bouclé is undeniably
elegant in its nature and appearance. If you’re wanting to incorporate this
alluring texture into your space, we offer two bouclé ranges, Fabio and Ovis, that
are bound to bring sophistication and will sit beautifully in an array of spaces.
