The vibrant tie-dye patterns of the 60s hippy-era are back… with sophistication!
There are several dying techniques which have come back into fashion recently and not just tie-dye, but dip dye and ombre too. There are some variations in the techniques, but the overall feel is the same. The blended graduation from light shades to dark give a sense of a calm and relaxed style. It’s a real boho-chic look for your home and a great way to inject some fun and colour into any room.
Anthropologie tie dye sofa
My top tip for this style is to stick with just one tonal colour for a clean and fresh tie-dye interior look. This bedding range from Designers Guild pulls off the look fabulously. Plenty of white, a block of colour and just a touch of dip dye with the pillows works really well.
Saraille bed linen (from £20)
Add a statement tie-dye rug to your living room with this subtle and stylish rug from Designers Guild. Each rug is hand woven, pure wool and authentically dyes making each one unique. Also available in fuchsia.

We love this ombre-effect wallpaper from Digitex Home, it certainly takes the hard work out of creating your own dip-dye paint effect!
Designers Guild have some fantastic ombre fabrics and dip-dyed cushions. Fabric doesn’t just have to be used for curtains, and can add some wonderful texture and softness to a room if used as a backdrop.
