Our removable covers on sofas offer a practical solution for customers with pets or children, and our pieces have been designed to combine functionality with aesthetics across various fabric types. Each fabric offers unique benefits while addressing common concerns such as spills, stains, and wear. The following fabrics are suitable:
Our Cotton-Linen Blend
Cotton-linen blends combine the durability of linen with the softness of cotton. This fabric is known for its resilience and ability to withstand the rough and tumble of daily life, making it an excellent choice for households with pets or children. Removable covers made from this blend are generally machine washable at home, ensuring easy cleanup after spills or stains.

Our 100% Linen
Pure linen is prized for its natural, textured appearance and its high durability. It's a breathable fabric that becomes softer over time. Linen's natural resistance to pilling and abrasion makes it a smart choice for families and pets. Linen naturally creases but this is part of its character. We have an incredible range of colours that can be seen here https://www.sophieconran.com/collections/designers-guild-brera-lino
Our 100% Cotton Stripes
Cotton is a versatile fabric that offers comfort and durability. Striped patterns can be particularly forgiving, helping to hide stains or wear. Cotton's wash ability is a key advantage, allowing for regular cleaning that keeps the sofa looking fresh. However, it's important to follow care instructions carefully to avoid shrinkage. https://www.sophieconran.com/collections/stripes
Our Velvet
Velvet adds a touch of luxury and depth to any living space with its plush texture and rich colours. We offer a 100% cotton velvet which is more delicate and is dry clean only https://www.sophieconran.com/collections/designers-guild-varese. However we also have a cotton/poly mix velvet covers are designed to be removed and is machine washable at home https://www.sophieconran.com/collections/designers-guild-arona, ensuring that they can still be a practical choice for homes with pets or children. Opting for removable covers means that even high-maintenance fabrics like velvet can be kept looking their best.
Our Floral Fabrics (Dry Clean Only)
Floral fabrics can introduce vibrant patterns and a sense of energy to a room. While these fabrics may be dry clean only, making them seem less practical, the availability of removable covers means that they can still be considered by those with busy households. Removable covers allow for professional cleaning, ensuring that the fabric maintains its appearance without compromising on hygiene or fabric integrity. https://www.sophieconran.com/collections/florals
