Upholstered Furniture Fabric Trends – Summer 2025

Softness, Depth, and Performance Drive Material Choices in the Summer Market

In the summer of 2025, the upholstered furniture market in Europe and North America is embracing a clear shift in fabric preferences. Three types of materials are rising to prominence — Bouclé, Mohair, and a new generation of Textured Woven Blends — each reflecting a growing demand for comfort, texture, and functional design.

1. Bouclé: Soft Texture with Modern Character

Bouclé remains a standout fabric this season. Its signature looped surface creates a cozy, tactile experience that feels both comforting and elevated. With a matte finish and subtle texture, bouclé works well in curved shapes and minimalist silhouettes, adding warmth and softness to modern interiors. Its popularity continues to grow as more consumers seek materials that are not only stylish, but also touchable and inviting.

2. Mohair: Quiet Luxury Meets Practicality

Mohair, known for its natural sheen and soft pile, brings a refined touch to upholstered furniture. Its luxurious appearance is matched by its strength, making it an excellent option for high-use seating without sacrificing elegance. Increasingly seen in soft neutrals and deep jewel tones, mohair bridges the gap between sophistication and everyday livability — ideal for high-end accent chairs, lounges, and statement pieces.

We have also launched a Mohair-upholstered accent chair, shown below, which combines subtle elegance with comfort and practicality. This model has gained popularity among customers seeking a premium yet versatile piece.

3. Textured Woven Blends: A New Standard in Versatility

A third category gaining momentum in the market is textured woven fabrics made from polyester or polyester-cotton blends. These fabrics combine the look of natural fibers with enhanced durability, colorfastness, and affordability — making them ideal for family-friendly, commercial, and residential settings alike.

Our recent launches highlight this category:

Ruby Soft Chair: Upholstered in a breathable woven polyester or poly-cotton blend, this chair provides lasting comfort with a subtle grain and refined texture.

Theodore Storage Chair: Designed with tweed-style polyester bouclé, offering both structural appeal and hidden storage functionality.

Raphael Chair: Featuring a timeless polyester bouclé, ideal for creating sculptural shapes with a plush feel.

These fabrics are increasingly chosen by designers and buyers for their balance of softness, structure, and resilience — perfectly in tune with today’s preference for low-maintenance, visually appealing materials.
