The retro revival is here – this is how to shop it
The retro revival has been casting its nostalgic glow over interior design trends all year, and it feels especially at home come Christmastime.
Rooted in memory, ritual and the festive traditions of yesteryear, it’s no surprise this warming trend has become one of 2025’s most sought-after ways to decorate for the season. Drawing on the kitschy colour, characterful pattern and references from days of old, this look captures the comfort and familiarity we crave in the depths of winter.
While its spirit is delightfully old-school, our take is distinctly modern: playful motifs, reimagined classics and thoughtful details that bring a sense of joy, intimacy and gentle whimsy to your space. Read on to shop our favourite retro treasures to adorn your home this Christmas.
