The Love Frankie Soft Shade Collection – Plus Win £500 To Spend at Love Frankie

Thursday, 23rd October 2025 – Posted in: Just Launched

Introducing the Vintage-Inspired Soft Shade Collection from Love Frankie — handmade in the UK, dripping in fringe, velvet, and personality. From bold leopard prints to natural hessian textures, each tasselled lampshade is a true statement piece. Perfect as a ceiling pendant or table lamp, these fringed soft shades bring retro glamour to modern homes.

Well, well, well… look who’s finally gone soft.

We’ve been teasing tassels and flirting with fringe for a while now, but it’s official — Love Frankie has launched our first-ever collection of Vintage Inspired Soft Shades, and we’re just a bit obsessed.

This new collection is a glorious nod to the golden age of interiors — all curves, scallops, and fringe — but with that unmistakable Love Frankie twist. Think: vintage glamour meets modern mischief. Handmade right here in the UK, these fringed lampshades are our love letter to the bold, the beautiful, and the slightly bonkers.

Meet the Girl Gang

Every Love Frankie lampshade has a personality — and these new girls are no exception. They’re dramatic. They’re flirty. They’re dripping in tassels and confidence.

Made from our signature Leopard print velvets, and the all new hessians, each shade is designed to make a statement — whether it’s centre stage above your dining table or stealing the show as a table or floor lamp.

Each Vintage inspired shade is available in six sizes, so whether you’re going for subtle vintage charm or full-blown fringe fantasy, there’s a shape and size for every mood (and every room).

Meet The Leopard Lovers

If you’re the type who believes more is always more, meet your match. Our leopard print soft shades are unapologetically bold — the kind of lighting that makes a room gasp before it glows.

Introducing Trixie — the sultry showstopper of our fringed velvet soft shade collection. Draped in our Leopardess Velvet Fabric, she’s pure feline finesse — a timeless leopard print reimagined in bold, moody tones with a velvety sheen that catches the light (and plenty of attention).
Then there’s Betty, the neon pink leopard with black fringe and braiding, serving full retro sass. And Sadie, drenched in colour and energy, with her Electric Leopard velvet bursting with pinks, yellows, blues, and oranges. These velvet statement lampshades are handmade to stand out — not blend in.

Perfect for those who live by the motto: subtlety is overrated.

The Natural Beauties

Prefer something with a softer, more organic vibe? Say hello to Birdie, Wilma and Delilah – our hessian goddesses.

Birdie pairs her neutral textured hessian with a pop of bubblegum pink fringing — the perfect blend of calm and chaos. Light glows through her beautifully, giving off the dreamiest ambient lighting — she’s chill, but with a cheeky vibe.

Then there’s Wilma, crafted from pickle green hessian and finished with antique gold trim and tassels. She’s vintage to her core — elegant, understated, and only a little bit smug about it.

And finally, there’s Delilah, our ray of sunshine. With her sunburst yellow hessian and matching fringe, she’s pure joy in lampshade form — warm, glowing, and impossible not to love.

Why You’ll Love Them (Besides the Obvious)

Aside from being FABULOUS, our Vintage Inspired Dome Shades are as versatile as they come. Every design can be fitted as a ceiling pendant or used on your favourite table or floor lamp — we’ll include the correct fitting based on your selection, no faff required.

Each one is handmade to order by our small-but-mighty UK team, ensuring every curve, braid and tassel is absolute perfection. No factory fluff, no mass production — just beautiful, bespoke lighting made with love (and a little attitude).

These aren’t your gran’s old-fashioned lampshades. They’re vintage-inspired statement lighting pieces designed to add warmth, texture, and personality to your space. Whether you’re after a cosy reading nook glow or a bold centrepiece above the dinner table, these fringed soft shades deliver instant atmosphere — no mood lighting degree required.
