What are the best Fabrics for Autumn?

Autumn is here which means it’s out with the blue hues and blush pinks of summer, and in with the crisp yellows, burnt oranges and earthy browns. We’ve already touched on some of the best autumnal fabrics for the cosy season ahead in our Autumn Styling blog. But lets take a closer look at how we can incorporate these seasonal colours into our home.

Burnt Orange

Burnt Orange is a classic Autumn colour palette which can work with a number of different interior styles. From large, bold Sofas to cosy throws and small décor, you are sure to find a style that suits your living space.  If you’re looking to go bold; why not try one of our burnt orange velvets on your Sofa for a huge statement. Our Plush Umber Velvet-style Fabric emanates the Fall Season perfectly and will add a pop of colour to your living room. If you’re looking for a smaller statement, A Footstool may be the way to go. Switching up your smaller pieces of furniture allows you to incorporate those seasonal stylings without the need for a complete overhaul. Our Wiggle Copper or Wiggle Rust Fabrics are the perfect balance of fun and style.

If you’re looking to incorporate Burnt Oranges through smaller pieces such as throws and shelf décor; we have some great choices for you. With Daylight Savings Time fast approaching, it’s a great time to pull out the throws and blankets for some extra warmth on those dark, cold evenings. This Amelia Recycled Throw from Dunelm is bang on trend and will keep you cosy and warm all season long. If you’re after a little bit of luxury, this throw from Soho Home is made from 100% alpaca wool for premium softness. Place it on your Sofa or Armchair ready to hunker down whenever you fancy.

Living room accessories and shelf décor are a more subtle way to bring this colour palette into your home without having to invest heavily in big changes. This Large Ceramic Vase from Next has a striking reactive glaze that brings warmth and texture to any room. It can be placed almost anywhere, just pop in some Fall foliage and you’ll have your own little corner of Autumn. With the darker nights coming in fast a Table Lamp might be what you’re looking for. This stunning Burton Table Lamp from Atkin & Thyme will create soft pool of ambient light and can be used to create a cosy reading corner or add atmosphere to your living room.

Crisp Yellows

Crisp yellows are also a classic Autumn colour scheme you can easily bring into your home, mimicking the burning golden hour sunsets we can enjoy this time of year. One easy place to start is with your Scatter Cushions. Switching up your cushions is quick, simple and cost effective. Plush Turmeric is our favourite G Plan Fabric that match this Autumnal colour palette. Switching up your rug can also be a really simple way to transform a room. When working with more neutral furniture, rugs are often the statement centrepiece of your living room, so mixing them up from season to season can offer an easy way to create different looks throughout the year. This exquisite machine washable rug from Wayfair is designed to elevate your home décor while making a positive impact on the environment. Win Win!

Earthy Browns

A Brown colour palette is one of our must-haves for Autumn. With a spectrum stretching from caramel and taupe shades, to dark chestnut and chocolate, brown can offer a wide variety of looks. Why not try transforming your living space with a deep taupe paint colour for your walls. This Cold Brew Paint from Coat will add depth and warmth to your interior whilst still remaining a neutral back drop for your furniture and decoration. Or maybe you’re looking to make more of a statement with a brown Leather Sofa? Despite popular belief, Leather can be a perfect choice for Autumn. Leather is a great insulator. The thick, dense material traps heat and creates a barrier against the cold, making it a suitable choice for the colder months. Our Genesis Honey & Texas Tan Leathers are some of our favourite on-trend choices for a classic and timeless look.
