Custom Oversized Armless Sofa Slipcover

📏 Measuring Guide

Before selecting your slipcover, you'll need to measure your furniture carefully. Taking accurate measurements will ensure you choose the right size slipcover. For any piece—whether sofa, chair, or ottoman—you'll need three basic measurements: width, depth, and height.

 

📐 Basic Measurements

• Width: Measure the entire distance across the seat from left to right, including both arms.
• Depth: Measure from the front edge of the front leg to the furthest point of the back leg.
• Height: Measure from the top of the backrest to the floor.

 

✏️ Additional Measurements

 Depending on your furniture type, you may need these additional measurements:

• Cushion Width: Measure from the outer edge of the leftmost cushion to the outer edge of the rightmost cushion.
• Cushion Depth: Measure from the front of the cushion to where it meets the back of the sofa.
•  Recliner Length: For recliner slipcovers, fully recline the chair and measure from the top edge to the bottom of the footrest.
• Dust Ruffle: For slipcovers with a dust ruffle or skirt, measure from the top of the legs to the floor.

 

👍 Once you have these measurements, you can easily match them against slipcover specifications to find the perfect fit.

 Form Fit Slipcover

A form fit slipcover is a type of sofa or furniture cover that's designed to fit snugly around the furniture piece, creating a tailored, clean appearance. Unlike loose-fitting slipcovers, form fit versions provide a more custom look by following the contours of your furniture.

 Key Features

Form fit slipcovers offer several advantages over traditional loose-fitting covers:

Custom-tailored Appearance

 Provides a clean, tailored look that fits perfectly to your furniture's shape.

Stretchy Material

Typically made from elastic fabrics (like Premium Stretch Chenille with 89% Polyester and 11% Spandex) that can adapt to various furniture shapes.

Secure Fit: 

Often includes elastic bands or other reinforcements to keep the cover in place without shifting.

Easy Installation:

 Despite the fitted appearance, these covers are designed for straightforward installation.

👍 Form fit slipcovers are an excellent solution for refreshing furniture appearance while maintaining the original shape and style of your pieces, offering both protection and aesthetic enhancement.
