Best Textural White Stain-Resistant Upholstery Fabrics (2025 Edition)

Not all white fabrics are created equal. Some are crisp. Some are soft. And some… steal the show. Enter textural white upholstery fabrics—those slubby, chunky, bouclé-style beauties that make a room feel instantly more interesting (and more inviting).

Historically, these fabrics were high-maintenance stars: gorgeous, yes, but prone to pilling, snagging, and staining. But the new generation of white stain-resistant performance fabrics? They’re durable, family-friendly, and still wildly good-looking.

We reviewed over 300 fabrics in our 2025 white upholstery deep dive and pulled together our favorite textural picks—each one offering a unique weave or tactile personality that’s as practical as it is plush.
