Your Guide To The Softest Bouclés In The Market

Best of Bouclés

Since Covid-19 hit, people have been drawn towards comfort more than ever before. After all, once you’ve spent your days working from your couch in pajama pants, the thought of skin-tight jeans and hard office chairs feels almost unimaginable. This major shift towards comfort has influenced the way we shop, from clothing to furniture.

Among the many industries embracing comfort, fabric manufacturers are at the forefront of the cozy-chic aesthetic as teddy-bear like bouclé fabrics are rising in popularity. Distinguishable by a series of looped fiber, bouclé is derived from the French word boucler, which means “to curl.” Ranging in size from small loops to large curls, bouclés are most commonly made out of wool. Both versatile and durable, Bouclés offer a unique range of benefits that makes this fabric ideal for adding softness to sofas, chairs, rugs, pillows, window treatments, and more. With this fabric, you can enhance the coziness of your home while also maintaining a chic and refreshing textural element.
