The french word 'ombre' literally means shadow or shaded. This trend has been popular in fashion for quite some time, but has recently been popping up everywhere in interiors. In design, it is gradation and shading of color (typically going from light to dark) on fabric, walls, furniture or any other surface. I adore this trend and it's probably because it reminds me of tie dye! Although it is a little more sophisticated than tie die, but striking none the less. Take a look of some examples of ombre;
