I absolutely love West Elm and their modern, minimalistic and mid-century design aesthetic. I have been buying pieces here and there from their collections for years – and also finding incredible lookalikes of their designs, too.
One thing I love, love, love at West Elm is their rugs – from the fan favorite Colca Rug to the gorgeous and neutral Braid Stripe Rug that adds so much texture and warmth to any space.
But, rugs can have a fairly short life span if you have a busy household and/or pets, so saving on something like a rug is a great way to get the look you want for less. A rug is going to get a lot more wear and tear than something like a media console, so it’s easier for me to justify spending the bulk of my design budgets on things that I won’t need to replace very often.
So, to kick off my West Elm dupe series – I’m bringing you 5 of their gorgeous rugs and more affordable lookalikes that will make their high style accessible for almost any budget. This are not sponsored by a brand, but I do use affiliate links, which means I’ll receive a small commission at no cost to you if you choose to buy a rug through my links. Also, keep in mind, that prices can change at any time. It’s impossible for me to update this often enough to reflect the constant change in pricing/deals.
Let’s go!

1. West Elm Colca Rug Dupe:
Ahh, one of my favorite rugs from West Elm EVER. The Colca rug with it’s chic palette of colors, a pattern that is interesting without being overwhelming, and loads of texture, is a total room- maker.
But, the price tag of $840 for an 8×10 (on sale for $672 at time of posting) might make you reconsider. It’s still a really reasonable price for a beautiful rug that will last, but sometimes you just need to get the look for less. Here is the most similar rug I have found yet:

2. West Elm Braid Stripe Sweater Rug Dupe:
I love the braided rug look for adding texture without any visual distraction. These are perfect for rooms where you want something soft underfoot, like a living room or bedroom. The braided pattern makes it interesting and the ivory color keeps it neutral and soothing.
The West Elm Braid Stripe Sweater Rug in 8×10 is currently retailing for $840, on sale at time of posting for $672.
Guess what, you can absolutely have the look for less – just check this ivory braided rug out.
Yup, yup, yup. Love. Adds so much. I have ordered from Rugs USA and felt the delivery and customer service were excellent. The one comes in a million sizes and 6 colors. The 8×10 in ivory retails for $408.50. Score. This rug is also similar to a more expensive Serena & Lily rug. If you’d like to see more Serena & Lily rug dupes, check out this post.

3. West Elm Wool Souk Rug Dupe:
I’m a huge fan of the Moroccan style rug. I even wrote an earlier post where I scooped the dupe for the Lulu & Georgia moroccan rug and there’s another one for the Anthropologie Cross rug.
I’m super excited to bring you the dupe for the West Elm Wool Souk – easily one of the best rugs ever designed. The original is $840 for an 8×10 (currently on sale for $672).
I spy a dupe with my little eye! Here here, y’all! Currently priced at $255 for an 8×10, fringe and all – BAM! The West End Moroccan Trellis Shag Rug.

4. West Elm Almond Valley Rug Dupe:
I love the WE Almond Valley Rug – the neutral colors and use of a geometric pattern is both classic and interesting.
You can snag the look for less, though, with another Rugs USA find – the Faya Geometric Rug. With a similar look and feel, this one will only cost you $160 for an 8×10, and it’s available in a lot more sizes than the West Elm option.

5. West Elm Faded Floral Rug Dupe:
The West Elm Faded Floral Rug is a beautiful, soft design in a light beige. It’s no longer available, but still a rug people are looking for, because it’s so good. Just as great in a living room as a baby nursery.
But, then there is the lookalike – and with the fringe and the three color options – I really think side-by-side, the Fading Floral Fringe Rug is the winner – and not only because a 5×8 will only cost you $104.50. I do think the color is off a bit in the image above – because when you look at more of the pictures, you see a clear beige option and a clear silvery gray option:
