Do you like Corduroy?

posted in House and home |

Welp no, I’m typically not a corduroy lover unless it’s these shorts from Savvy? (which I heart and wore lovingly especially for this) - but I always like this kind of corduroy. That’s the kind from Corduroy the funky home store owned by Alan Wijaya. He recently got fully up and running so while I typically stick to fashion, I wanted to bring your attention to a great new store run by a very fashionable man :) If you know Alan or his main squeeze, Puma Jie, then mayhaps (damn you Jelly!!) you’ll agree, Corduroy is making a comeback.

Alan has a small, but growing, number of items currently for sale. The main pieces so far include corduroy seating (surprise!) - incredibly low prim and super quality. There are clever poses tucked into every nook of each seat and armrest, so you can literally pack a party of 11 with just the loveseat, armchair and ottoman. There are also colorful lights, intricate beaded screens in loads of textures and colors, and original artwork made by Puma that you can see below.

My favorites are the prettyful Twinkle Lights that come in many colors and twinkle subtly as you get your retro on. (click on any snap below for full size - though better seen in world)

Prices range from $100L for the bead screens to $400 for the armchair (seats 5 with 5 animations) and $450L for the loveseat (seats 5 with 11 animations).

Check out Corduroy if you’re in the market for fashion for your home.

    I *REALLY* love how Alan’s furniture has all those seating anims on both the seat cushions AND on the armrests, how you can control the the current anim on some of them, and I also love the animations he chose… you can tell he puts a lot of thought into his work!
