Has everyone lost their minds? People are actually putting WHITE fabric on sofas, sectionals, and chairs? The first thing that comes to mind with white upholstery is stains\u2026 however with incredible advancements in stain resistant fabrics, you can finally get that white sofa you\u2019ve always admired without worrying about stains. These fabrics are soft, beautiful and red-wine proof. They don\u2019t look or feel like outdoor fabric but they perform like them. At Walter E. Smithe, we call them Worry Free fabrics because there is no need to worry about stains.<\/p>\n
