Fabric sofas

Fabric sofas buying guide

When it comes to making the right sofa choice, we’re a little fussy. Buying a sofa is a big decision, and finding perfection takes time. It’s important to make sure the style, size, and material are a good fit for you and your space, because it’s a place you’re going to spend countless hours on catch-ups, boxsets and cuddling with the family. Fabric sofas are popular due to their tactile appearance, comfort and longevity, but we like to offer a range of fabrics to make it easier for you to find ‘the one’ - and each has different properties and benefits.


Whether you’re looking for chic, traditional or life-proof, our guide will help you to choose the right fabric sofa for your home.

Boucle sofas

Boucle sofas

Soft and warm, bouclé is a fabric you’ll love to curl up on, with a range of chunky and delicate tactile finishes available. From subtle micro curls to oversized loops, bouclé adds depth and character to your space. Its textured surface catches the light in unique ways, making even neutral tones feel bright and dynamic, offering on-trend sophistication to any home.

Chenille sofas

Chenille sofas

Chenille fabric has a rich texture which is soft to the touch and super comfy. Like velvet, chenille is a textured pile fabric that reflects light in different directions for a beautiful sheen. Luxurious, cosy and plush, this fabric is ideal for those who love sofa snoozes, with a tactile feel that cuddles you in comfort with every sit.

Velvet sofas

Velvet sofas

Velvet is a chic and comfortable choice. Luxurious and sleek, it’s a surprisingly durable fabric if you look after it properly; with its flat pile, dirt or pet hairs can be easily wiped away. Available in a wide range of shades from navy to terracotta, our velvet sofas are expertly handcrafted and designed to offer you and your family amazing comfort for years to come.

Got a question?


Let’s see if we can help. You’re stuck on a few details and need a helping hand, why not check out our FAQs for help and advice.

  • The best fabric is the one that feels right for you and suits your home. For example, if you love a touch of easy elegance and a soft, sumptuous feel, velvet is always a stunning choice, while a durable and cosy chenille could be the perfect fit for a relaxed, family-friendly home. It’s all about finding a fabric that you’ll love sinking into, every single day.


  • Your sofa should be a welcoming spot for the entire family – and that includes your furry friend. That’s why we created our range of Lifestyle fabric sofas. They’re designed to be durable, easy to clean, and resilient enough to handle the happy chaos of life with pets, without compromising on style or comfort.


  • With the right care and maintenance, our fabric sofas can last for more than a decade before needing to be replaced. That’s because we focus on quality craftsmanship and only use durable materials to build out stunning sofas.


  • We wouldn’t typically recommend it. Steam cleaning can be too harsh for many upholstery fabrics and could damage the fibres or cause the colour to fade. The best way to care for your sofa is to follow the specific advice for its material. This gentle approach will protect your investment and keep the fabric looking its best for years to come.


  • Not at all. Keeping your fabric sofa looking fresh and beautiful is simpler than you might think. A little regular care, like weekly vacuuming, goes a long way. For any unexpected spills, the trick is to act quickly and only blot the affected area, rather than rubbing it deeper in the fibres. For tailored cleaning guidance, head over to our Help Centre.
