Autumn is right around the corner, and many people are beginning to fold away their summer ‘fits and weave new fabrics into their wardrobes—hello, chunky knit sweaters and plaid button downs. But there’s no reason to call it a day once you’ve switched over your closet. The start of the new season is always a wonderful time to evaluate your home decor, too, and spent some time rethinking the textiles that you’ve been incorporating in your space. Summer is all about lightweight, linen fabrics and simple hues, but fall textile trends welcome an opportunity to experiment with a bit more pattern and weave new shades into your space, designers say.
Here, four interior designers comment on the seven biggest fall textile trends that they’re loving for 2024. You can implement as many of these as you wish into your space or simply select one or two looks that speak to you. These trends will complement a range of design aesthetics wonderfully, whether your home decor leans timeless and traditional or you prefer an eclectic look.

Corresponding Wallpapers and Fabrics
Do not assume that because you used one specific print on your walls you have to select another for your accent seating or drapery. Becky Carbone, the founder of Becky Carbone Interiors, is partial to sticking with one singular print across the board. “It feels really cohesive without being too busy,” she says.
Not quite ready to go so bold? You could also draw from your drapery and use that fabric on the bed or sofa. To ensure that your space still has some variation, Carbone offers another trick: “Adding a trim or cording in an accent color then layering in lampshades in coordinating prints helps complete the look,” she says.
Artistic, Bold Patterns
Need help selecting a pattern to use throughout your space? Amy Youngblood, the founder of Amy Youngblood Interiors, has been witnessing an increased use of “artistic, bold patterned fabrics,” including florals, abstract-looking patterns, and mid-century modern-inspired patterns. She advises pairing these with pops of solids for a stylish look.

Lots of Green
Bring on the green textiles this fall, Carbone says. “Greens go well with so many accent colors and wood finishes, and it’s so nice to see more of a rich layering of different shades of greens, and not just blues or neutrals on their own,” she says. When working with greens, Carbone gravitates toward prints as opposed to solids, so long as they all complement one another nicely. “I love trying to incorporate as many prints as I can but making it a balance between a large scale print, a medium, and maybe two small scale patterns so it feels cohesive,” she explains.

Block Prints
Lisa Gilmore, the founder of Lisa Gilmore Design, says that she is in a “major hand blocking phase” this season. “It’s such a great way to bring patterns into a room, but it feels handmade and warm,” she says. Better yet, there is truly a block print for everyone. “I love that there are different patterns and scales out there,” Gilmore says. At the moment, she’s been enjoying pairing small hand blocked florals with classic striped textiles.

Contrasting Welts
It’s easy to add extra flair to throw pillows, accent chairs, sofas, and more by opting for contrasting welts cords. “It’s just such a fun way to take a plain piece of furniture and make it feel a bit more bold and alive,” says Gilmore, who is enjoying implementing this tactic in many of her current projects. “I’m currently working on a project with a deep, mossy green velvet sectional, and we are piping it in a contrasting magenta velvet welt.”

Sweet Details
Charming accents are having a moment in the textile world, says Melissa Oholendt, founder of Oho Interiors. “Thanks to the nostalgia of grandmillenial design and maximalist design converging into one for fall, our projects have welcomed these details,” she says. “Whether adding a tennis pleat to a cushion or an embroidered tape to a ruffle pillow or the cutest leather ties to a chair cover, we live in the details of making the items we use everyday feel special.”

Traditional Handwoven Detailing
Say hello to homespun accents this season. Oholendt is fawning over fabrics that boast traditional embroidery or artisanal weaving techniques. “While a printed fabric will remain a classic, we find ourselves gravitating in selections to patterns that have a handcrafted feel for fall,” she says.
