From Runways to Rooms: Fashion Trends Taking Over Interiors
If there's one thing I love, it's spotting the crossover between fashion and interiors. The way trends flow between the runway and our homes shows the power of great design, whether you're wearing it or living in it. Lately, I’ve been noticing some serious parallels, so I’m looping you in. Because you know what they say.. if you’re not first, you’re last. So let’s make sure you’re on the upside of the latest trends making waves in both fashion and interiors right now.
Fringe – The Statement Maker
Fringe is everywhere. In fashion, it's giving movement and drama to jackets, dresses, and even accessories (I saw Claudia Oshry from The Toast podcast wearing a blue fringe-sleeved dress and it made me want to invest in a fringe fashion moment). And in interiors? We’re seeing fringe on ottomans, sofas, and accent chairs—adding texture and a little bit of playful elegance. It’s a modern nod to vintage glamour, and I’m here for it.

Tinted Glass – Retro Cool
You know those colorful sunglasses with orange, blue, or pink lenses? That vibe is spilling over into home decor with bold, blown-glass pieces. Think: sculptural vases, funky candlesticks, and tinted drinkware that feels straight out of the ‘60s and ‘70s. I gifted my best friend got a stunning blue glass decanter, and have been really into the look ever since. It’s fun, fresh, and a perfect way to add color without going all-in on paint or furniture.

Maximalist Accessorizing – More is More
Fashion is leaning into accessories in a big way—layered jewelry, statement belts, gloves (yes, gloves). And the same mindset is taking over interiors. I know.. it feels like we were just in the quiet luxury clean girl era, but gone are the days of ultra-minimalist styling; now, it’s about curating layers of decor—books, sculptural objects, candles, collected art. The key is to mix textures and materials so it feels intentional, not cluttered. Your home should feel lived-in, loved, and styled.

Stripes – Timeless but Trending
Coastal chic is having a moment in fashion, and stripes are a big part of it. But let’s be honest—stripes have never not been a thing in interiors. They’re classic. Timeless. Effortlessly chic. Whether it’s striped drapery, a statement rug, or the perfect pinstripe upholstery, this is one trend that never really left—it’s just enjoying a well-deserved spotlight right now. If you love the Nancy Meyers aesthetic, stripes are your best friend.

Pleats – Vintage Meets Modern
We’re seeing pleats all over fashion—structured skirts, pleated blouses, even pleated handbags. In the home, it’s all about pleated lampshades. That soft, tailored look (very ‘80s revival) is adding dimension and texture to lighting in a way that feels both nostalgic and fresh. A pleated shade on a modern lamp base? Chef’s kiss.
