Butterflycore esthetic

Butterflycore decor uses whimsical colors and patterns to add life to small spaces.

Metamorphosis symbolism

Butterflycore draws from life changes and leaving the past behind.

Mariah Carey's connection

Mariah Carey linked her 1997 album Butterfly to personal transformation.

“When I made that album, I was leaving a point in my life that was extremely stifling and I had to go through an actual metamorphosis to become a grown woman who was strong enough to get out of that situation”

Barbara Taveres' view

Jewelry designer Barbara Taveres says butterflycore preserves dreamlike vision.

“We are drawn to things that lift us mentally and emotionally, in my opinion, this is not even about following a trend; this is about maintaining dreamlike vision for your life, and that is always worth preserving”

Style expert's advice

Style expert Caralyn Mirand Koch recommends subtle butterflycore elements for personal spaces.

“I wouldn’t start with butterfly prints everywhere, I’d focus on creating the feeling first. Think soft botanical-inspired colours, fresh flowers or branches, natural textures like rattan, linen, and wood, vintage-inspired artwork, and delicate lighting.”
