Q: I would love to find the source for the pillows Kourtney Kardashian has in her living room. They look like the perfect, not overstuffed pillows that you could curl up with, especially if you have a couch with a less than great personality.

Commercial Flour Sa...
I've seen very similar pillow cushions on Etsy. It's worth a look for these or other pillow cushions.
That said, I don't ever want anything even remotely associated to the Kardashian monsters, no matter how beautiful. Becaust they uglify everything. Also, based on this pic (I don't watch the show) it seems they have someone come to karate chop all their pillow cushions... one of the gazillion people that follow them around filming, I suppose.
The karate chop seems to be sewn in--look at the one the guy is leaning on. (I think it looks silly, too.)
They're probably custom-made and ordered by the decorator the E! network hired to "decorate" that place. Get some inserts or "ugly" cushions in the size you want and make your own or get a friend to sew them for you. If you can't find the size you want, get some batting and sew custom pillows and stuff them. :) Having said that, I would not recommend taking style or any other advice from anyone associated with that "family".
JasmineIsDomestic, this: "Also, based on this pic (I don't watch the show) it seems they have someone come to karate chop all their pillow cushions" made me LOL into my tea!
I suspect the trick here is slightly under stuffed DOWN pillows. They Karate chop the best and are the nicest to lean on. You can get down bed pillows and make your own covers. (I know some people will be grossed out, especially in bedbug zones -- this was before the epidemic and I'd have to think before acting now -- but I got second-hand down pillows, washed them in the washing machine, and used them. Mine came from estate sales, essentially, so I had some idea of likely cleanliness.)
They are just down inserts vs fiber-fill to get that soft, malleable look and feel. The pattern looks similar to one I have by John Robshaw.
Guilty of watching this show. I've heard them mention Serena & Lily quite a bit. Either way, I'm sure they are custom made. She has a blog, I'm sure you could ask her.
If you're just wanting the size and shape and not these particular pillows, the other posters are right, down inserts give that non-overstuffed, squishable look. You can get the inserts in various sizes online. TJ Maxx/Home Goods has tons of down throw pillows, too. I got some from Target that were big like these and had a removable cover.
KARATE-CHOP PILLOWS! HAHAHAHA!
Down pillow inserts definitely can look like this, but I discovered by accident that using TWO of the IKEA $2.99 pillow inserts made my homemade pillow just like those!
I used the "5-minute pillow cover" tutorial from here on AT, but discovered I'd measured a little too big. So, they're slightly under-stuffed, even with 2 inserts. Which is a good thing.
Sorry I don't have a lead on those exact pillows...I spent a long time shopping for them online recently, but didn't see anything exactly like those. I'd say they're probably at least 20". Overstock.com has a really big selection of throw pillows, FYI.
The inserts look to be maybe 27x27? You can get down ones at fabric.com for $20, and the options for upholstery ikat-style fabric like that are pretty much endless. They're literally just two squares sewn together.
No matter how lovely something is I would pass if the item is owned by the any member of the Kardashian Klan.
Just buy a similar fabric and I am sure you will end up with nicer pillows.
etsy has great pillow sources, check this one out! It's my moms shop, even better :) she does custom orders too.

A big thank you to all the people who commented on the pillows (actual topic) and not whether or not the Kardashians are good people (who cares). I am simply looking for pillows and these caught my eye:) I love the mix of green and slate gray/blues, as I have a similar couch and color palate in my living room.
I really appreciate the info on the down-fill inserts as well as using Etsy and Overstock as a source. It's looking like 27x27 are the size of pillow to go for.
If anyone has any other great sources for fabic online, I would love to hear from you.
Thanks Again:)
West Elm has some great pillows too.
If you're looking for the fabric, just google 'taupe ikat fabric' or whatever color you want. Also, when you ask for help and post a picture to larger sites beyond a blog or your facebook, it's a given that people are going to give their opinions on whatever's in the picture. Take what you need and let the rest go. A simple uncritical thank you goes a long way
The pillows are probably custom made. They appear to be a neutral color in a geometric print, and you should be able to easily find something similar. Geometrics - trellis prints, Moroccan inspirted prints, etc. are popular at this time, and greys/tans/beiges are as well. I found this pillow at Z Gallerie, which has a similar look.

gbh - Elizabeth's thank you was indeed uncritical! All she asked for was information on the pillows, not an opinion on the Kardashians! Giving an opinion on "whatever's in the picture" and the topic of the request are two different things. Just sayin'.
Not sure why everyone is off topic on this readers question.
Anyway.
Chris Jenner's designer is Jeff Andrews. He is a wonderful and extremely talented designer. http://www.jeffandrews-design.com/index.html
I do know that Kourtney purchased many items on her own and assume that maybe Jeff helped her but don't know for sure. The fabric I am not familiar with but is probably from the PDC and is to the trade. Wish I could help out more.
They remind me a little of Aphrochic's ikat pillows http://www.aphrochicshop.com/collections/pillows
I have to say I am not a big fan of the karate chop. I love the silk pillows. The gray and white ones I see being used a lot in rooms with neutral palettes.
