From Bambi spots to leopard, cow print and zebra, animal prints are having a moment. And this season, they're moving from our wardrobes into our living rooms.

Who says your wardrobe should have all the fun?

From leopard-print coats and cow-print accessories to zebra stripes and the latest obsession with Bambi print, fashion's wild side is making its way into our homes.

And what better way to embrace the trend than with a brand-new statement chair?

We've just launched a new collection of accent chairs, each bringing its own personality to the room. Think sculptural silhouettes, rich textures, retro influences and fashion-led designs that deserve a little attention.

But why stop at the chair? Taking inspiration straight from the runway, we're pairing our latest arrivals with some of fashion's favourite prints, proving that great style doesn't stop at your wardrobe.

From subtle spots to statement stripes, here's how we're styling four of our new accent chairs this season.

Four Chairs, Four Ways to Style Animal Prints

The Chantal: Bambi Print

Bambi print is having its moment, and we're completely here for it.

Softer and more understated than traditional animal prints, delicate white spots against warm caramel and chocolate tones bring a playful yet sophisticated feel to interiors.

Paired with Chantal's warm timber frame and neutral upholstery, the combination feels effortlessly considered.

Think spotted cushions, vintage wooden accessories, warm lighting and earthy textures. Layer with natural materials and antique-inspired details for a look that feels nostalgic, timeless and full of character.

The Gabby: Leopard Print

If there's one print that never goes out of style, it's leopard.

And Gabby's softly gathered Luxe Chenille upholstery in Warm Sand makes the perfect neutral backdrop for fashion's favourite animal print.

Taking inspiration from leopard-print coats and accessories, introduce the pattern through a statement cushion, rug or upholstered footstool.

Pair with warm browns, soft pink accents and vintage-inspired accessories to create a look that feels effortlessly put together.

The beauty of leopard print is its versatility. Whether used as a subtle accent or a statement feature, it adds instant personality to a space without overwhelming it.

The Marie: Cow Print

Cow print has been making its way into our wardrobes, from statement footwear to accessories, and now it's finding its place in interiors.

With its rich Amber Bronze upholstery and sculptural silhouette, Marie is the perfect partner for this bold, graphic pattern.

Think chocolate-and-cream cow-print rugs, statement artwork and warm wooden furniture. The contrast between Marie's rounded shape and the organic markings of cow print creates a look that's equal parts retro and contemporary.

Layer with rich brown tones, natural textures and vintage-inspired accessories to create a space that feels warm, inviting and effortlessly styled.

The Piper: Zebra Print

Bold, graphic and effortlessly cool, zebra print brings instant personality to a space.

Paired with Piper's rich Cocoa Powder upholstery and polished chrome detailing, the striking monochrome pattern creates a contrast that feels modern and fashion-forward.

Take inspiration from monochrome street style and introduce zebra through a statement rug, cushion or piece of artwork.

Keep the surrounding palette simple with chocolate browns, creams and black, then layer in chrome accessories and deep burgundy accents for a more elevated finish.

The combination of soft bouclé, metallic detailing and bold pattern creates a look that feels contemporary with a subtle nod to retro styling.

The Art of Styling Animal Prints

The beauty of animal prints is their ability to bring personality into a space, whether your interiors lean towards minimalism or something a little more maximalist.

And you don't need to completely redecorate to embrace the trend.

A spotted cushion, zebra-print rug or cow-print accessory can instantly refresh a room, adding interest and texture without overpowering the space.

The key is balance. Let your accent chair anchor the room, then introduce your chosen print through smaller styling details.

Consider the colour palette, too. Warm browns, creams, soft neutrals and rich autumnal shades work particularly well with animal prints, creating a look that feels cohesive rather than overly coordinated.

And don't forget texture. Bouclé, chenille, timber and chrome all bring their own dimension, helping to create a layered, considered interior.

Most importantly, choose prints that reflect your personal style. After all, the most interesting homes are the ones that feel individual.

A New Season of Statement Seating

This season, we're taking styling inspiration straight from the runway and bringing it into our homes.

Whether you're drawn to the subtle charm of Bambi print, the timeless appeal of leopard, the graphic contrast of cow print or bold zebra stripes, there's an animal print to suit every interior style.

With our new accent chair collection, there's never been a better time to introduce a statement piece into your space.

Because great style doesn't stop at your wardrobe.

New season. New chairs. Endless ways to style them.
