Florals in your living room: Here’s how you can make this trend work for your decor

Floral prints are making their presence felt in the world of decor like never before. Here’s how you can give your home a flowery, fairytale-esque makeover.

Floral prints have always enjoyed fame in the world of decor, thanks to their timeless appeal. Transcending trends, these classics never really go out of favour among style junkies. Be it the statement-making fauna embroideries, centuries-old Chintz prints or floral wallpaper, it’s hard to miss their all-pervading appeal this season.

Case in point being the runway showcase of designer Rahul Mishra, which saw a panoply of artfully embroidered floral ensembles. And this wasn’t a flash in the pan. A melange of decor and fashion brands have sparked off a maximalist movement of sorts.

Hence, one sees an array of vibrant collages of flora and fauna prints to enliven the ambience of living rooms, foyers and bedrooms.
