Trends come and go at a pace that's pretty hard to keep up with. Between viral TikTok videos, fast fashion, an influx of influencer-generated content, and "core" being attached to the end of pretty much every word known to man (enter: cottagecore, goblincore, cluttercore, etc.), it can be tough to predict exactly what's going to stick. But there's one thing we know for sure: Bouclé is here to stay. This nubby, cozy, ultra-chic texture has been making itself known on everything from couches and chairs to pillows and blankets. It's very of-the-moment, yet simultaneously timeless, and we simply can't get enough of it. In fact, you all have shopped our bouclé chair roundup more than any other shopping piece this year, and it doesn't appear to be slowing down anytime soon.
