Very soft and beautiful fabric. I got the mustard yellow that with go beautifully with the navy leather wingback chair that I also purchased on Wayfair. . Corduroy is a fashion forward look but unfortunately it is extremely expensive when buying a sofa. Check out how reasonable this sofa is in comparison. I am thrilled to be able to own such luxury for so little. Don’t hesitate, jump in and purchase for yourself you won’t be disappointed. The cushions are comfortable yet ultra supportive especially if you have an overnight guest to accommodate. This is definitely a 5 star buy.
