I know it sounds crazy to be talking about autumn in the middle of summer – especially given the heat we’ve been having across the UK lately. But Dunelm’s autumn 2026 collection of homewares is already dropping online. And the best pieces famously sell out even before the start of the new season – so to avoid disappointment, these are my 12 top picks available now I recommend snapping up fast.
Last week, I got an early first look at the new Dunelm autumn/winter collection ahead of its launch. I was able to see, feel and try some of the best bits of the range in person and I made a mental note - and also took pictures - of my favourite pieces. Many of these, as well as the newly debuted Dunelm x Yinka Ilori collaboration, have now been added to the new-in section of the website for eager shoppers like myself to peruse and bag asap.
