What Will Be Trending in Homes in 2027? Shop 5 Ideas Straight From the NYFW Runways
I’d wear them, but I’d rather bring them home. Meet the S/S trends signaling a more expressive turn for interiors
Only a couple of seasons ago, New York Fashion Week was being read its last rites. But for the just-wrapped Spring/Summer 2027 season, it was alive, alright, and perhaps more joyful than ever. From not-so-far-back-aughts comebacks like Proenza Schouler’s rebooted PS1 bag to Tory Burch’s kooky color combinations, which somehow landed just right, there was plenty of play to take home.
Debuts like Henry Zankov at Diane von Furstenberg injected fresh energy, while Coach, forever young in our eyes, turned 85. Tailoring got less serious. Florals for spring proved a little more groundbreaking in unusually opulent weaves. Jeans were more likely to be spray-painted than left alone. Clearly, NYFW isn't over; minimalism is. And if fashion week is any indication, our rooms are next.
This was a showing for maximalists, with five trends in particular that I think have legs well beyond the catwalk. The clothes will have to be preordered, but these interior ideas bring the look home today.
1. Asymmetry
Imperfection is in. Shake 2016 gallery wall cheuginess with some irregular artwork spacing, à la Peter Dunham.
Looking too ‘done up’ might be more embarrassing than an errant bra strap. That was intentionally the look at Joseph Altuzarra and Christian Cowan, where exposed, occasionally unhooked undergarments looked as effortlessly elegant as the 15-minute tablescape of dreams, all mismatched taper candles and wild, uneven florals, tall and short.
And it didn't stop at styling. Coach and Prabal Gurung took a raw, organic approach with muslin looks and unfinished hems, a pretty direct throughline to the irregularly shaped tabletops, curved sofas, and imperfect pots that, in an AI-perfect design landscape, are still proving the perfect antidote. Rachel Scott at Proenza Schouler and Diane von Furstenberg newcomer Henry Zankov went more eccentric, pairing asymmetry with wonderfully odd color plays that added further interest to already-interesting necklines. They felt quirkily kindred to Peter Dunham’s imperfectly clustered corner in his chartreuse bedroom at the latest Kips Bay Decorator Show House.
‘Asymmetry is really just as much about composition, as it is shape,’ says Texas-based interior designer Ginger Curtis. ‘I use it to keep a room from feeling overly resolved or predictable, whether it’s with a piece of art intentionally off-center, an unexpected imbalance in a gallery wall, mismatched objects with different visual weights, or lighting that doesn’t obediently mirror itself on either side of a room.’
‘I think this is really about breaking our instinct to make everything match or balance perfectly,’ adds former NYC magazine editor turned interior designer Jourdan Fairchild of Winston-Salem, NC-based Jourdan Fairchild Design. ‘Put a lamp on one side and a sculptural object or stack of books on the other. Create a wall of plates that climbs unexpectedly rather than forming a perfect rectangle. Balance is important, but asymmetry shows playfulness and spunk!’

2. Sashes – The New Bow?
The bow grew up. Seen in this oversized Oblist lamp, sashes are taking over as the longer, looser finishing touch.
Over the past year, the coquette bow has coated our mouths like candy. After eating it up in every outfit – and table lamp, and candle sconce, and cabinet hardware – we officially have a tummy ache. Now the ‘anywhere’ accent feels more palatable, stretched longer, looser, with newfound freedom in the tails.
Throughout the week, scarves cinched waists, sashes slung low around the hips at Ralph Lauren and Kallmeyer, and cummerbunds did the work of both bows and belts at Conner Ives and TWP. Could the sash really be the next bow? According to Lady Gaga fashion stylist-turned-interior designer Nicole Fisher, the answer is yes.
‘The sash is the more elevated bow. We added this detail in our Kips Bay Decorator Show House rooftop this year, creating soft drapery sashes at each support post of our tented bar. The sash adds an element of elegance and formality to a space. And easily done with drapery. To do this at home, add a tie-back and swoop the fabric behind it. The bigger the swoop, the bigger the drama.'
The Oblist makes an oversized ceramic lamp with laissez-faire untied ribbons, if you'd rather buy than tie. Or take it as inspo for the most elegant, idiot-proof home DIY heading into 2027.
‘It’s an easy DIY,’ insists Nina Takesh, who, before entering the interior world, worked for renowned French fashion house Guy Laroche. 'A length of grosgrain or silk ribbon tied around a stack of linens, or wrapped and knotted around a lamp base or a vase.' Not only does it cost less than a coffee, 'it feels less precious and more lived in, which is really the throughline of everything moving away from coquette right now.’
3. Stripes on Stripes
If stripes have been feeling snoozy, the S/S 2027 runway remix gives this classic print more to say.
Stripes. Yawn. Suiting. Yawn. But the pattern finally found life beyond tired tailoring on the Spring/Summer 2027 runways: horizontal against vertical at Rachel Comey, classic black-and-white cabana stripes at Michael Kors, multicolor at DVF, and asymmetrical or neutral-on-black versions at Proenza Schouler. Which gives us a little more range to work with at home.
Because the decorating lesson here isn’t really about the stripe itself, but how we mix it. 'I think that’s what makes stripes exciting again. The stripe itself isn’t new, but our willingness to break its rules is,' says Ginger Curtis.
‘Instead of repeating the same stripe throughout a room, I love changing its scale or orientation. You could throw a broad cabana stripe beside a very fine ticking stripe which creates a classic scale contrast, seen a lot in menswear,' Ginger continues. 'The same goes for horizontal stripes next to vertical.'
‘I consider stripes a neutral,’ adds Nicole Fisher. ‘They literally go with everything, and I love what different widths, colors, and applications can do. From upholstery to drapes to wallpaper to tile layouts, stripes can add a subtle or serious pop to any room. Mixing them on different applications is the chicest way to have variation on scale and interest that doesn’t feel matchy.’
4. Jade Green
Our aquatic obsession is headed straight to the spa. While every other trend on this list gets more eccentric, summer’s Tiffany-coded teals are softening into a soothing mineral green.
Matthieu Blazy’s Spring/Summer 2026 debut for Chanel soaked NYC streets in teal, turquoise, and ‘Tiffany’ blue this summer and, as predicted, into the home too, even infiltrating the heritage set with Le Creuset’s ‘Riviera.’ For 2027, cousins of the coastal colorway calmed and got a little earthier.
A natural next step, this family of ‘jade’ greens appeared across Carolina Herrera, Rachel Comey, DVF, and Tory Burch, while embellishment at Prabal Gurung treated the grounded green with appropriate rarity.
‘I think it’s a relief,’ says LA-based interior designer Nina Takesh. ‘The aqua and Tiffany blue moment felt very of the summer, almost seasonal and a little fleeting. Jade has more gravity to it, more mineral quality, so it reads as a color decision rather than a color trend.’
‘I’d pair it with warm brass or aged bronze rather than chrome, with chocolate brown or walnut wood tones, and with cream or bone as a break so it doesn’t tip into something too saturated. It’s also a wonderful color against Persian and antique rugs; it has the same earthy depth.’
‘Rather than introducing jade through lots of small accessories, I’d probably commit to it as a solid piece: a lacquered cabinet, an upholstered chair, a tiled bathroom or a beautiful pair of curtains,’ echoes interior designer Jourdan Fairchild. ‘Color often feels more sophisticated when you give it some real weight in a room.’
5. Floral Jacquard
Woven, printed, or, in this instance, painted, floral jacquard is having a fashion-to-interiors moment. Harris Reed and Fromental got there early: this wallcovering was born from the designer’s S/S 2026 London Fashion Week runway.
From clunky knits to tapestries to provincial picnic-blanket patterns, we’ve pretty much run the gamut of ‘grandmother’ fabrics, save for, apparently, jacquard. The rich-looking weaving technique, which had its heyday in the early 1800s, makes the pattern part of the fabric’s structure.
But at Tory Burch, it was a far cry from anything you might find on the resale market, in electrically odd pairings of fiery red with cobalt blue and grey with sunshine yellow. Calvin Klein’s felt appropriately clean in a monochrome black, square-neck midi dress, making the ornate fabric look minimal. Altuzarra went avant-garde aristocrat in gleaming gold that could have rivaled a Fabergé egg.
It’s really all in the silhouette. ‘Our firm uses jacquard in almost every project,’ says former fashion stylist Nicole Fisher. ‘I love pairing this more traditional fabric with a contemporary upholstery piece. We recently put a Nobilis jacquard on a pair of curved ottomans with a fringe trim. With the more contemporary shape, the fabric takes on a whole new look.’
‘Jacquard becomes much less intimidating when you stop treating it as a “formal” fabric,’ says Jourdan Fairchild of Winston-Salem, NC-based Jourdan Fairchild Design. ‘I’d use it somewhere slightly unexpected – on a chair with cool Art Deco lines, a playful headboard, or as pillows and even lampshades. And then I’d surround it with less structured textiles: linen, cotton, etc. That’s generally how I like to use anything that could skew traditional. Don’t reinforce its traditional associations.’
