Where Luxury Fashion Meets Opulent Living
Autumn 2025 homeware trends have been heavily influenced by the fashion world. Much like the latest catwalks, interiors are reflecting a move towards sculptural shapes and the pared back elegance of warm minimalism. Ideal for adding both movement and harmony to your home, furniture with curved edges and statement ceramics with organic lines are taking centre stage.
Another standout trend? Tactile textures, in particular bouclé fabric. Popularly used by Chanel for bags and jackets, this looped material adds instant depth and luxury to chairs, cushions, and throws. It is ideal for transforming a neutral space into something deeply inviting, particularly when paired with sculptural vases or brushed brass frames for a chic, contemporary finish.
These are not just passing trends; they’re reflections of a growing desire for interiors that feel calm, personal, and grounded.
Autumn Shades: Natural & Ambient
The 2025 autumn colour palette leans into elevated earthy shades. Think deep terracotta, clay, olive, burnt cinnamon, and warm neutrals. These tones add richness and depth, working beautifully with wooden furnishings and soft upholstery.
One highlight this year is the rise of soft pleated fabric lighting. Popularised by brands like M&S, these warm, diffused lights use pleated linen or cotton shades to create a gentle, inviting glow that’s perfect for darker evenings and layered lighting schemes. At Elphicks, we’ve introduced a range of ambient lighting solutions to help you create your ideal autumn sanctuary.
Timeless Textures Over Fretful Fads
In a world full of fast décor fads, more homeowners are opting for quality over novelty. Designers are steering away from novelty decor, glitter pumpkins, or disposable seasonal buys. Instead, the focus is on classic options like chunky knitted fabrics, embroidered details, woven wall hangings, and rich velvets.
This approach doesn’t just elevate your home, it’s also more sustainable. By investing in versatile, well-made pieces, you can layer your interiors seasonally without waste. At Elphicks Department Store in Surrey, our autumn edit includes plush throws, textural cushions, and hand-finished accessories that feel both stylish and enduring.
