Catwalk to Commercial Interiors

Design Threads Between Momentum & 2025 International Fashion Shows

Fashion continues to shape the future of interior design, and we love exploring where those parallels emerge. After reviewing the global Fall/Winter 2025 Fashion Weeks that took place this past February and March, we spotted runway trends that align with what we’ve been designing—and where we’re headed next.

From bold statements to modern takes on timeless classics (and yes, event the slow fade of quiet luxury), these moments on the runway echo through our materials, palettes, and sustainable innovations. Read on to discover how 2025 fashion influences surface in Momentum's newest designs and materials.

Femininity & Vintage Revival

Hourglass shapes and stunning silhouettes dominated the catwalk made possible through the use of statement, figure-enhancing belts and powerful shoulders (seen in the Caroline Herrera Fall '25 runway pictured below, featured in Harper's Bazaar). These designs illustrate the trend of celebrating feminine influence and embracing a revival of vintage aesthetics across both fashion and design.

The Rebecca Moses x Momentum wallcovering collection takes inspiration from Moses’ “The Queen” painting which debuted at the White Shirts gallery exposition showcasing groundbreaking women who embrace their beauty and diversity. Reflection features The Queen’s eye-catching portrait while Deco Dreams is inspired by her vintage broach.

With a nostalgic maximalist feel, both wallcovering designs pay homage to vintage aesthetics and regal influences—a trend Harper’s Bazaar described as “opulence meets effortless grace.”

Statement Animal Prints

Subtle dashes of extravagant elements took the runway by storm this winter—including the ever-popular animal print trend. This aesthetic was spotted in the AKNVAS Fall 2025 looks (featured below at right, from WWD)

These ingenious techniques create impact without excess, showcased in the zebra-stripe-like Zara (seen above), part of our Glint & Glimmer collection—its velvet two-hued pattern intertwines with matte and sheen elements, adding unparalleled depth and intrigue.

Feminine feline influences are also making their way into hospitality spaces—the Rebecca Moses wallcovering collection again fits this aesthetic. Patterns like Kimono Untamed II prove that statement animal prints remain timeless—eye-catching yet elegant, and full of personality.

‘Vegan’ Sustainable Solutions

Although sustainable practices are growing increasingly popular in the fashion industry, the demand for eco-friendly alternatives that achieve similar aesthetic appeal has risen dramatically. The Ready-to-Wear Collection from KHAITE2025 (from WWD, pictured below) put this tailored leather look to the forefront.

PVC-Free textile Cordovan EPU (seen above, available in 24 colorways) takes inspiration from natural leather, boasting an organic blend of subtle tone variations and fine graining, a solution that some might call ‘vegan leather’.

Other leather-like options from our Better By Nature Collection, like biodegradable vinyl textiles TerraLeather and TerraPebble, also offer sleek aesthetics and spill- and stain-resistant beauty for workplaces, hospitality settings, and restaurants.

Earthy & Expressive

Tactile dimension and organic drama took center stage on the Fall/Winter 2025 runways, from sculptural folds to mineral-inspired finishes. Think Dries Van Noten’s molten metallics and rich textures or Issey Miyake’s flowing geometry—earthy, elevated, and full of movement.

The Essentia Collection echoes this shift with upholstery like Tsumiki and Wavelet.

On the vertical side, cork-inspired PVC-free wallcovering designs like the metallic foil effect of Sardinia Cork or the curvy rhythm of Rossio add a grounded, glinting finish to commercial spaces—a reminder that raw beauty can have its glam moments, too.
