Autumn Styling Trends for 2025

Autumn is a season full of warmth, rich colors, and coziness. It's the perfect time to style your events and dinners with seasonal elements that create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Here are the key autumn styling trends for 2025 that we've spotted at Mailra.

1. Earthy Colors with Metallic Accents

This season, we're seeing a return to earthy tones like terracotta, olive green, and ochre, but with a modern twist by adding metallic accents. Think gold cutlery on a deep green table runner, or copper candlesticks among autumn leaves.

This combination of natural colors with shiny elements creates a perfect balance between rustic and refined, ideal for both casual and formal events.

2. Sustainable Decor

Sustainability remains a key trend, and this season we're seeing a focus on reusable and natural decorative elements. Consider:

• Dried flowers and grasses that last long and can be kept after the event
• Seasonal vegetables and fruits as decorative elements that can be used later
• Handmade ceramics and natural materials like wood and linen

3. Layered Table Settings

Layering is a keyword for autumn 2025. By combining different textures, heights, and materials, you create a rich, visually interesting table. Some ideas:

• Start with a coarsely woven table runner as a base
• Add different heights with candlesticks and small vases
• Mix and match tableware with different textures but in complementary colors
• Work with different fabrics for napkins, such as linen and velvet

4. Dramatic Centerpieces

Large, dramatic centerpieces are back! Think of lush arrangements with:

• Branches with autumn leaves
• Dried pampas grasses
• Seasonal flowers in deep, rich colors
• Unexpected elements like artichokes, berries, and small pumpkins

For long tables, consider a 'runner' of flowers and greenery that follows the length of the table, instead of individual arrangements.

5. Personalized Touches

Personal details make every event special, and this autumn we're seeing a focus on handmade, personalized elements:

• Hand-written place cards on natural paper
• Small, personalized gifts for guests
• Menus with personal anecdotes or stories about the dishes
