Buying Guide

In order to determine the right slipcover size for your dining chair, you’ll need to measure the back’s height (from floor to back’s top), the seat’s height (from floor to seat’s top), as well as the seat’s width and depth. Once you’ve got the proper measurements of your chair, all you have to do is choose a modern cover size that matches it best.

Modern dining room chair covers are easy to make if you know how to measure the fabric correctly. Measure your cushion area’s length and width, and then add 3”-4” on all sides to allow room for folding under and stapling the upholstery neatly.

An average dining room chair cover measures 16” x 18”, so you should be able to make two chair covers out of ¾ yard of 54” wide fabric. If you’re dealing with a uniquely shaped chair, the easiest method for determining how much fabric you’ll need is to remove the old upholstery and use it as a template. If the edges get ripped or damaged during removal, add an extra inch to your measurement on each side.

Be conscious of the upholstery pattern you select and ensure that when you measure, any large or noticeable parts of the design are centered on the chair seat so that the fabric doesn't end up looking crooked once it’s on the seat.

The best fabric for dining chair covers will be durable, easy to clean, and resistant to stains. Choosing the right modern dining chair covers will also create an inviting and aesthetically appealing space. So without further ado, here are the best fabrics for dining chair covers.

Cotton blend is a strong fiber and, when combined with synthetic fibers like polyester and nylon, make a durable, wrinkle, and stain-resistant option. It's breathable but, on the other hand, absorbs moisture quickly.

Faux suede is luxurious, soft to the touch, and easy to clean, but lighter colors are harder to keep clean.

Tweed is hardier and contains lots of texture but is harder to clean. So we would recommend either cotton blend or darker faux suede chair covers as they are also child and pet-friendly making them worth every penny.
