“Menswear was definitely the word at Fashion Weeks around the world this season. Designers covered apparel and accessories with plaids, tartans and houndstooth checks of all sizes and shapes on everything from knits to furs to silks,” Lauren Parker of Accessories magazine reports.

 

In fact, Tommy Hilfiger put houndstooth in the forefront at New York Fall Fashion Week with an entire, cohesive collection in the pattern.

And just like on the runway, houndstooth is being applied in creative ways in the design world as well. Here, for example, houndstooth drapes are paired with a zebra rug to add a sophisticated splash of stylish glamour to this contemporary home office.

Houndstooth is seen in different hues besides classic black and white. I love these beige houndstooth accent pillows. They add the perfect dose of style in this sophisticated space.

Now this is my kind of nursery! A large scale, teal houndstooth sets the stage for a chic and modern nursery. That’s quite a way to make a stylish start!

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen houndstooth in the spotlight, and it’s safe to say it won’t be the last. What’s your favorite designer houndstooth look on the runway or in an interior space?  I’d love to hear about it in a comment below!
