Sometimes we’re in the mood for irony. Something so ugly it’s chic, or so old it circles back to cool. Hence the return of the slipcover sofa: self-aware, a little nostalgic, and somehow… fabulous. Most of them cost thousands – and I am not ready to commit that hard to this sofa trend just yet – so when I found a $41.08 hack? Just the slipcover, on sale? I immediately added to my cart.
'It’s the marriage of casual and couture – and I’m here for it,' says North Carolina-based interior designer Grey Joyner of Grey Joyner Interiors. 'I think the slipcover’s revival is part of the larger return to people wanting cozy homes,' she continues – large in part why we’re all oogling over Nancy Meyers living rooms. ‘People want homes that feel expressive, layered, and livable,’ Grey adds.
