23.07.2024 17:00

Fashion is fickle and cyclical, so every year design techniques that were popular 10, 20 or 30 years ago appear in trends.

According to the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, designer Yulia Tychino, fringe is one of such interior trends that has regained its lost popularity.

A bit of history: we should thank the Native Americans for the emergence of this decorative element. In the Art Deco era, fringe began to be used as a decoration for women's clothing and interiors. This decor returned to design in the 70s thanks to hippies.

One of the most popular ways to use fringe in the interior is as a lampshade. The decor may remind someone of the twenties of the last century, and someone else - a vacation in the village with grandma.

Fringe is most often found on round lampshades, but other design solutions are also possible.

In addition, such decor is often used “in pair” with pillows and turns everyday pillows into luxurious and festive ones, even if they are made of ordinary fabric.

The most beautiful pillows in the interior are plain, and the fringe can be the same color or a contrasting one.

Finally, if you are thinking about how to use fringe in interior design, take a closer look at the options in which it is an elegant textile detail.

It looks great on curtains, tablecloths and tiebacks. Even a simple plain carpet will become a stylish interior element if you add fringe along the edges.

For decoration, you can choose glamorous fringe or its hippie version - it all depends on the interior style.
