Dunelm's £99 'chair of dreams' launches in 'gorgeous' new print perfect for autumn
The Elsie Cocktail Chair is now available in an eye-catching new floral print in striking autumnal colours, with a matching footstool available too
by Catherine Addison-Swan · ChronicleLiveOne of Dunelm's most popular pieces of furniture has landed in a "beautiful" new print perfect for giving your living space a sophisticated autumn refresh.
The Elsie Cocktail Chair went viral at the start of the year after being branded the "chair of dreams" by shoppers, with its compact size and range of colours and fabrics making it suited to any area of the home. And now it has just been released in an eye-catching new Ditsy Floral Print, featuring a delicate floral design in autumnal orange and golden shades on a soft red background that makes it look worth far more than its £99 price tag.
Finished off with wooden legs and piped detailing for a vintage look, the accent chair is ideal whether you need an extra seat for hosting duties over the festive season, a place to put your shoes on in the hallway, or a dresser chair in the bedroom. And with several other styles to choose from, whether you love luxurious velvet or striking stripes, the Elsie chair has earned hundreds of rave reviews from Dunelm shoppers.
Fans have previously praised both its "very elegant" look and its "super comfortable" feel, saying it "really pulls the room together" and describing it as "excellent quality" for the price tag. Other fabric options for the chair include velvet in classy grey, 'mushroom' beige, 'lilypad' green or 'thistle' purple, as well as a bold orange velvet option perfect for brightening up a room in the dreary winter months ahead.
Another cheerful option for the Elsie chair is a striped fabric in pink, green or beige, or for a cool retro look you can go for this oval print - which currently has 30% off in the Dunelm clearance sale, bringing its price tag down to just £69.30. The Elsie Linford Stripe Cocktail Chair has also seen its price slashed down to under £70, with eye-popping pink or green to choose from.
But if you can't get enough of the newest print, a matching Pumpkin Ditsy Floral Print Footstool is also available in Dunelm's Special Buys collection for just £39. Or for a larger seating solution, the popular Beatrice Snuggle Sofa now comes in the same fabric with a price tag of £399, with shoppers already hailing it as "beautiful" and "gorgeous".
The fabric is reminiscent of the iconic Strawberry Thief print from designer William Morris - a pouffe in this print at John Lewis is priced at £140, making Dunelm's collection a great way to bring a high-end look to your home without the price tag. If you're after a plainer look, there are similar options elsewhere for the same price, including the Habitat Eppy Fabric Accent Chair at Argos for £99 which comes in four colours and the HOMCOM Sofa Chair in blue or grey for £99.99 on Amazon.
