From the Red Carpet to the Sofa, Blankets Are a Fall Essential
Staying at home for extended periods is difficult, as we all know by now. But, with the right blanket, a day at home needn't be spent longing to go outside. Hunkering down with your work, a book, a good film, or anything for that matter, becomes a completely different prospect when you're wrapped in the perfect woolen counterpart.
What's more, with icons like A$AP Rocky and Rihanna hitting the red carpet wearing — essentially — high-fashion blankets, it seems that the blanket is becoming a genuine style piece, too.
Not only is a great blanket a valuable asset when the mercury drops, but it can also be a great addition to your interior design. We’ve rounded up selections spanning from the heights of luxury by Rick Owens and Acne Studios to fuss-free pieces from Snow Peak and Gramicci. Whatever your interior style or desired comfort level, there’s a blanket to match.
