Saviours of tired and tattered chairs and chesterfields, staff here have been fashioning made-to-measure slipcovers for almost 15 years. They offer a reasonable alternative to replacing pieces that have been worn down by pets, toddlers and teens. Still hot are coverings in natural fabrics and synthetics that look like linen, textured cotton or faux suede. Though some clients bring in their own fabric, most make a selection from 100-plus textiles (pre-shrunk, Scotchgarded and machine washable). Pricing for covers (including fabric) without custom fittings starts at $300 for a large armchair, $450 for a sofa and $900 for a sectional couch. Custom covers, which require a home visit, are pricier; they come with tailored arms, piping and zippers.
