Style Showdown: Upholstered Headboards

Upholstered headboards have been around forever, but they’ve increasingly grown in popularity over the past several years. They come just about any shape you can imagine and are literally the perfect canvas for experimenting with color, pattern, and texture. We got the Pondicherry Headboard with Nailheads from Serena and Lily last year and we absolutely love that it’s a statement-making piece. Because there are so many fun ways to express your design style through upholstered headboards, I’d love to know which approach is most in keeping with your personal style.

{This bedroom by Martensen Jones interiors features a classic upholstered headboard with a clean, simple shape and luxe details like linen upholstery and nailhead trim. This look is ultra-versatile, lending itself to any type of bedding or environment.}

{Linsdsay, of The Pursuit of Style selected a custom-made headboard with graceful, feminine lines and Quadrille’s fabulous Kazak fabric in the orange and pink colorway for the upholstery. The look is super feminine and glamorous.}

{This headboard is upholstered in leather and features button tufting and nailhead trim. It’s rich in details and the leather adds texture to this bedroom designed by Jarlath Mellett.}

{This bedroom, featured in ELLE DÉCOR brings the drama, in great part because of the headboard. It is made in a custom, large scale, glamorous silhouette and upholstered in sumptuous Bordeaux-colored velvet. It’s perfect in this eclectic room!}

So, which headboard is your favorite? Which is most representative of your own style?
