The Souks design plaids

At The Souks, we love vintage, of course. But a few times a year we design our own, new line for The Souks, in which we respond to the seasons and draw inspiration from all the beautiful things around us. Nature often plays a major role in this, but also contemporary art, museums, music, friends and family. Of course everything combined with the authenticity, craftsmanship and traditional production processes of our beloved Morocco. In this category of plaids you will find the blankets from our design collection. Want to know more about a special collection or shop the entire line? Check it out via the menu.

INSPIRATION FROM ART AND NATURE

Self-designed design plaids

Of course we love vintage at The Souks. But a couple of times a year we design our very own, new line for The Souks, in which we respond to the seasons and draw inspiration from all the beautiful things around us. Nature often plays a major role in this, but also contemporary art, museums, music, friends and family. Of course everything combined with the authenticity, craftsmanship and traditional production processes of our beloved Morocco.

Frequently asked questions

Is your question not listed? Feel free to contact us!

ARE THESE ITEMS VINTAGE OR NEW?

While the majority of The Souks’ items are vintage, we regularly design our own collection that we have manufactured ourselves in Morocco, using the same craftsmanship you’ve come to expect from our other products. These blankets and plaids are new and made from fabrics woven specifically for our designer collections.

DO YOU DESIGN EVERYTHING YOURSELF? HOW DOES THAT WORK?

Yes! And that is what we like best. A few times a year we design a new line for The Souks. That always starts with a good dose of inspiration and brainstorming sessions. We usually work out a concept textually and visually, creating a story and mood board. Then our designer sketches, design choices and technical drawings are made for our craftsmen in Morocco. Our team of artisans then carefully goes to work making samples of the designs. Once the samples are ready, we determine if we will release the products. Then, together with our creative team, we create images of the products during our ever-inspiring photoshoots, and finally the moment comes when we can share our new baby with you. So we think the entire collection from A to Z, from idea to product.

IS THERE SOMEWHERE YOU CAN SEE THE COLLECTION IN REAL LIFE?

We do not have a physical store or showroom. However, we regularly organize pop-up shops where, in addition to carpets and textiles, you can also view items from our design collections. Subscribe to our newsletter or follow us on Instagram to stay informed about pop-up shops and collection launches.

WHAT IS THE DELIVERY TIME FOR THE NEW COLLECTIONS?

For the new collections that we design ourselves the same delivery time applies as you are used to, unless otherwise stated on the product page. Sometimes we work with a pre-order principle, but this is always clearly stated.

IF A PRODUCT IS NO LONGER ON THE SITE, WILL IT STILL COME BACK?

In principle, our design collections are temporary, but it sometimes happens that we are so fond of a product that we bring it back. Sometimes slightly different than before, but with the same meaning. If you are looking for a specific item from the design collection, please send us a message, so we can check with you if there is still something available.

CAN I HAVE A BLANKET FROM THE DESIGN COLLECTION MADE TO MEASURE?

When it comes to a new item, there are often possibilities. We like to think along with you. Send us an email at info@thesouks.com.
