The level of distressing can vary and is a matter of personal taste. The term was coined by The World of Interiors magazine in the 1980s and became extremely popular in the US in the '90s with the revival of cult boho films such as Chocolat, Moulin Rouge! Shabby chic caught on in the UK with television programmes such as changing rooms and numerous others who followed in their footsteps. Whilst many interior designers will argue that shabby chic has had its day, it's a look that remains popular and let's face it, whether it's an original antique or a reproduction piece of furniture, if you like it then who cares what's in or out! One thing for sure, shabby chic furniture is timeless.
