Pillow Talk

A.P.C. Plaid Pillows

Plaid conjures painful images of the past: Seattle circa 1992, ginormous lumberjacks, groomsmen at a Scottish wedding.

Thankfully, Japanese label Sophnet has mastered a more appealing version of the design. And you can head to A.P.C., the herald of everything effortlessly sleek, to stock up on the pretty throw pillows.

It’s a totally acceptable way to indulge in the hunting lodge trend without mounting a bunch of creepy taxidermic animals on the walls. The tartan pillows come in three square sizes (13.7, 17.7, and 21.6 inches) and colors (red, yellow, and violet).

They are made of soft, washable cotton and might just match your favorite grunge-era relic. Plus, at under $75 a piece, you can afford to stock up on all three colors if you feel so inclined.

They’re only available for preorder at the moment, but you best get them now before they sell out.

You know, like those Temple of the Dog shows back in the day.
