Selena Gomez's pink sofa is setting interior trends on fire. The dusty rose furnishing, debuted in an Instagram post cuddling with boyfriend Benny Blanco, looks absolutely perfect against her textured white walls. Fans and interior design experts alike are in love with the look.
'A pink sofa isn’t just a piece of furniture; it’s a statement,' says Natane Boudreau, the founder and interior designer at Studio Boudreau of the pink room idea. She continues, 'It brings a fresh, vibrant energy into a room and can serve as a focal point around which the rest of the room can be styled. Pink, often associated with warmth and comfort, can make a living room feel more welcoming and lively.'
Furthermore, Selena's couch color is a huge sofa trend for 2024. 'I do see pink sofas becoming a trend, particularly in modern and eclectic interior styles. As more people embrace bold colors in their living spaces, pink can become a favored choice for those looking to express their personality and warmth through their decor,' Bourdreau tells Homes & Gardens.
However, despite its popularity, the pink couch color trend is more than a passing fad. Joyce Huston, Lead Interior Designer at Decorilla states: 'I think pink sofas are definitely having a moment, but they're also a timeless piece that can evolve with your style. So, if you're looking to add a pop of personality to your living room, I say go for it! Just make sure you choose a shade that makes you smile.'
The primary reason for the enduring popularity of the sofa color is its versatility. Huston says, 'A soft blush pink can create a really dreamy, romantic vibe, while a hot pink is pure, unapologetic fun.' As we can see in Selena Gomez's space, the look pairs well with a modern living room, but it would be just as effective in a diverse range of styles of space.

Even if you aren't planning to purchase a pink sofa, you can get the pink living room look with smaller accessories that are easy to swap out. Pink decorative pillows can be layered on any sofa to bring the warmth of the color into your space. Pink ceramic coasters are the perfect coffee table accessory, and we love these handmade ones by Charlotte Manser Ceramics. Pink candlesticks can be used in existing holders to bring a new color into the space.

If you are hoping to recreate this look in your own home, the good news is, it's highly versatile. There's no single 'right way' to do it. Huston states: 'I've paired pink sofas with everything from deep navy to olive green. It's amazing how versatile they are. And I also love to play around with different textures like velvet, linen, and boucle, they all look amazing in baby pink.'
As for living room styling with a pink sofa, Boudreau recommends: ' Incorporate different textures through throws or rugs to add depth and interest. Soft, plush fabrics can enhance the comfort factor, while smoother, shiny textures like leather or metal accents introduce modernity. Use wall art or cushions that include hints of pink to create a cohesive color story throughout the space. Wood and plants can soften the overall look and keep the room from feeling too saturated with color.'
Selena Gomez may not be the first celebrity to choose a pink sofa, but the look is the ultimate chic choice in her space. As the trend grows ever more popular, we can't wait to see more.
