What is gingham?

A rich history that dates back centuries, gingham was originally a symbol of rustic simplicity and was often seen in farmhouses and the like. Generally in a stripy, check pattern, gingham usually uses two or more shades to present an aesthetic design.

In recent years, gingham has experienced a comeback and has been successful in taking over the fashion world, home décor and more, with a slight nostalgic nudge for our collective yearning for comfort and warmth.

A completely versatile print, gingham is perfect if you’re opting for a country-themed bedroom, a preppy/polished theme, or an overall sophisticated, eclectic look. It comes in an array of colours and stripe thickness, allowing it to add depth and character to any room.

How to style gingham:

Firstly, choose a colour scheme that is relevant to the print. If the print includes neutral shades such as browns and greys, try and compliment with similar shades to work harmoniously with the aesthetic.

Then utilise this scheme within furniture and décor. If the print is more rustic, opt for vintage-inspired furniture and one-of-a-kind pieces to tie the whole look together.

Try mixing and matching the print with similar styles, or be bold and add different textures, with some throws or cushions, to create a simply unique style.
