Any white upholstery fabric is prone to getting grubby and bouclé is no different. However, most modern bouclés are made from high performance polyester and many are made stain-resistant.
The shades on offer tend to be ivory and cream rather than pure white. So unless you have young kids, mucky pets or tend to get giddy on Malbec it should be simple enough to keep it clean.
'Boucle is is a fabric made of looped yarns. Given its taller pile, the loopy fabric tends to hide crumbs a bit easier,' says Paula Cossarini, Product Design Manager at Article.
'However, you can vacuum up crumbs easily with the upholstery or crevice attachment. As with any upholstered item, you’ll want to treat spills quickly to keep your furniture looking new. The trick is to absorb spills with a microfiber cloth or paper towel instead of rubbing the spill into the fabric.'
