Runway trends often forecast the styles that show up later in our homes.

Click through to get some stylish ideas that will transform your home into one that’s Anna Wintour-approved.
Spring 2017’s bohemian cool girl is as far from the Coachella stereotype as they come; think earthy tones, organic fabrics and an eclectic edge. At Acne, piles of oversized knitwear exudes a sense of comfort.

For the home, take cues from this trend by mixing textiles in different patterns and muted tones. Here, a ticking stripe bench is offset with exotic prints, while a rug hung over a curtain rod makes for a unique window treatment.

If there’s one trend that always makes an appearance during fashion month, it’s stripes! This season, designers went bold in bright primary colors that channel a Mondrian-inspired vibe, like at Proenza Schouler.
Channel this easy-to-mimic trend by displaying a selection of vibrant wool blankets across your railing for an instant hit of color and pattern that works perfectly in a white space.

Pink is the “it” color for spring/summer 2017. While we saw a ton of blush pinks earlier on in the month, deep fuchsias and magentas dominated the runways in Paris.

For a fresh jolt of energy, mix lighter tones of pinks with electrified ones. Here, a bubblegum pink flat-weave rug plays off the more vibrant artwork, vase and accent chairs.

Splashy florals never die and this season they came in small nostalgic sprigs at Dolce & Gabbana, where they put a ’50s spin on the trend with feminine frills.
A fresh take on the floral trend, tiny blossoms are a departure from the large-scale moody blooms we’ve seen as of late. In this bathroom, the blue and white mini flower-print drapes are not only unexpected, but add a sweet spin to the modern space.

Typically, yellow isn’t the most wearable color. But that didn’t stop designers across all four fashion capitals from creating looks in shades from mustard and marigold to saffron and sunflower.
While muted yellow can offer a French country vibe, bright tones like lemon are best left for accessories. In a neutral space like this light-filled kitchen, displaying the sunny color on stools brings energy to its clean design.
