You asked for it, and we delivered!
This week, we introduced three new velvets as part of our Rouge fabric collection, bringing the total to 5 contemporary colours for you to choose from. Our velvets are made of 100% polyester fibers and have a short pile which contributes to the smooth, even tone of the fabric, instead of the streaky look that’s common with many velvets out there.
Why velvet? In your mind maybe you’d think that velvet is difficult to maintain, or isn’t as durable as many of the cotton/polyester blended fabric out there. While the latter is true, the former isn’t necessarily always applicable! Our Rouge velvets can be handwashed with cold water so you don’t need to stress yourself out if you drop some food on it. Just drip dry in the shade and run your hands over it to smooth out the velvet pile and you’re as good as new!
Here’s a quick rundown of our 3 new fabrics and some images sourced from Pinterest and around the internet which inspired our choice to offer each colour:

Which brings us to slipcovers – instead of getting a whole new sofa, just get a velvet slipcover for an instant (okay, it takes a few minutes) makeover! Whether it’s custom sofa slipcovers for any sofa type or templated IKEA sofa covers, we’ve got something for every home.
If you aren’t quite ready to commit to jump aboard the velvet train and transform your couch into a *velvet* couch, dip your toes in the water with a few custom cushion covers in these fabrics instead! A few luxurious throw pillows can really uplift your living room style, and Comfort Works can make cushion covers in a variety of sizes.
