With Bridgerton back on screens, you may find yourself yearning for a tasteful touch of bygone elegance in your home. 

Bridgerton is back on screen, and the allure of Regency-era dramas is impossible to resist. Beyond the corsets and courtship, one of the show’s real draws is its interiors. Not only do the opulent sets and period buildings provide a suitable romantic backdrop for the show’s epic love stories, but they also serve to inspire modern-day homeowners looking to embrace the ever-popular trend of ‘Regencycore’.

Regencycore is the contemporary interpretation of 19th-century interior design, drawing from the styles popular in Britain during the Regency period, under the influence of the Prince Regent. Rooted in Neoclassicism, Regency interiors looked to ancient Greek and Roman architecture for proportion and symmetry, softened by richer colors, bolder ornaments, and a sense of theater. At the time, the style marked a move away from Georgian restraint, hinting at the more expressive interiors that would follow.

For those looking to incorporate Regencycore into their homes, design experts say today’s approach is all about selective referencing. Esra Kumbasar, senior design director at Accouter, recommends a deliberate but restrained approach. “While Regencycore naturally lends itself to period properties, it translates just as effectively into modern homes when approached with intention,” she says. “Contemporary properties benefit from carefully-curated Regency nods that sit comfortably within a modern framework, rather than replicating the style in full.”

Lara Clarke, founder of Lara Clarke Interiors, echoes this more subtle approach, affirming Regencycore is not about grand remodeling, but selective, thoughtful additions. “In a modern space, it is less about historical accuracy and more about capturing the atmosphere,” she says. “You don’t need high ceilings to add a touch of romance or grandeur; it’s about how you dress the space you have.”

Color is often the most effective entry point. “People are no longer afraid of color; in fact, they are craving it,” says Clarke. Traditional Regency palettes – and some of Bridgerton’s most memorable rooms – lean towards light blues, greens, and pinks, offset by deeper jewel tones, creams, and soft neutrals. “Pink and green is a classic Regency combination that works beautifully today,” Clarke notes. “Think soft pistachios or sage greens paired with a dusty rose.”

Art also plays a central role in dressing a more modern space with a Regency-era edge. Stuart Geddes, managing director of The Lanesborough, one of London’s Regency grand dames, echoes this sentiment, noting the value of curated pieces in bringing historical context and a visual story to a space. 

“When selecting art, look for works that reflect the tastes of affluent households of the early 19th century,” he suggests. Speaking to his own experience dressing the luxury hotel, he recounts, “at The Lanesborough, a 2,000-piece collection was developed in collaboration with VISTO and Alberto Pinto Interior Design, reinforcing the feel of an English gentleman’s home from the 1830s and elevating the Regency character throughout the hotel.”

Texture and detailing are where Regencycore really comes into its own. Interior designer Katharine Pooley suggests introducing period-inspired accessories such as tassels and trimmings on curtains, cushions, or upholstery. These softer details, she notes, add depth and warmth, particularly as light moves through a room. 

To build on these softer accents, subtle gilding or muted gold elements can be incorporated to highlight architectural features or period accessories. Kumbasar suggests antique gold, brass, and bronze finishes to add warmth and a sense of heritage “without feeling excessive.”

Bedrooms are particularly well-suited to Regencycore makeovers. Clarke points to bed canopies and half-testers as surprisingly easy ways to introduce drama, height, and a focal point in a more plain, contemporary room. Layering fabrics is key here: Pooley recommends silk or cashmere bed curtains with embroidered edges, alongside generously-sized, plump cushions to build softness and depth.

While Bridgerton fever may not last forever, the Regencycore interior aesthetic seems to be moving with the times, as experts see shifts away from the beige-ification of interiors. “We are most certainly moving away from pared-back minimalism,” says Kumbasar. “There is a renewed appreciation for spaces that feel considered and lived-in rather than stark or overly restrained.”

She notes a shift towards spaces that celebrate character, in whatever form that may be. “After spending so much time in our homes recently, there is a renewed desire for spaces that express personality and spark joy.” And Regencycore certainly ticks those boxes.

From Scandinavian classics and performance luxury, these are five menswear brands shaping how men will dress in 2026. 

The menswear world has often been touted for its slow pace, favoring more timeless silhouettes, traditional and artisanal techniques, and less trend-led collections over womenswear. 

But the sheer number of catwalk shows – let alone the 750 stalls at trade fair Pitti Uomo – undertaken across Milan and Paris last month proves that the menswear industry is a bustling one, and shouldn’t be dismissed as any less buzzy.

While new brands may spring up all the more regularly in the sister sector, new collaborations, pop-ups, and brand expansions mean there’s plenty of reason to keep your eyes on what’s happening in menswear. On that note, find the five brands we’re watching this year for good reason.

Rubato

Since launching in 2018, Rubato has quickly established itself as the brand to shop for Ivy League designs instilled with Scandi sensibility. The founders, Oliver Dannefalk and Carl Pers, take inspiration from 1920s to 1960s workwear for their refined, timeless collections, which are gaining momentum outside of the brand’s Swedish homeland via pop-ups in London and New York. 

Unfortunately for the menswear heads who like to gatekeep, the brand’s growth in international retail guarantees plenty more fans. Quality and desirability are confirmed when trying their products for the first time; lambs wool crewnecks or classic cut chinos are the type of garments you’ll become addicted to wearing. 

Auralee

Despite a decade in business, only in the last few years has Auralee started to hit the mainstream – and by mainstream, I mean the style crowd that elevates IYKYK brands into international successes. 

Now, Auralee is one of the star events on the Paris Fashion Week calendar, as season after season, founder Ryota Iwai presents unpretentious clothes in a variety of wondrous pastel hues. Luxury retailers immediately put in their orders, and critics continue to marvel at Iwai’s talent for making simple pieces feel special. Such demand has seen Auralee partner with New Balance, Tekla, and Kith on sell-out collaborations. I suspect the brand’s popularity will be that of The Row within womenswear, garnering a cult-like following.  

Derrick

While you still could describe this brand as fledging, its traction is growing. The founder, Luke Derrick, graduated from Central Saint Martins in 2021, and has become a name on the London Fashion Week scene for his contemporary, practical, and utilitarian approach to tailoring. 

Despite training at the likes of Brioni, Dunhill, and Savile Row institutions, his suits have taken a gorpcore direction, designed for the man who wants to dress smartly but without too many traditional connotations. Celebrity fans come in the likes of Tom Hiddleston, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Matthew Goode.

Ghiaia Cashmere 

Sometimes, knitwear brands can feel a bit antiquated, as if their focus on exquisite craft has stopped them from remembering that they’re marking pieces for a contemporary shopper. That’s certainly not the case for Ghiaia. While pieces are still made in a family-run facility in Italy, Ghiaia knits have a touch of Californian flair. 

Davide Baroncini founded the brand in 2019, and it’s now stocked at luxury retailers like Mr Porter, has its own bricks and mortar store in San Marino, California, and has been endorsed by celebrities like Kevin Costner. The brand has expanded to present a full ready-to-wear offering, including cashmere blazers, suede hiking boots, and cotton sweatshirts.

Sease

In 2019, Franco and Giacomo Loro Piana decided to start a lifestyle brand that would combine the luxurious quality synonymous with their surname, with performance pieces made for the slopes and sea. 

Seven years later, and the brand is expanding into new sports. Last year, they unveiled a tennis-centred capsule at Milan Fashion Week, and last December, the brand was ​​the main sponsor of Automobili Amos at the historic East African Safari Rally race. That exploration of activities has naturally influenced the garments, too. Looks that were originally ski or sailing-inspired now also take notes from pieces worn on the courts and tracks.
