ABSTRACT:
A unitary slipcover for covering a seating-type piece of furniture having a base, a back, arms, and a cushioned seat portion. The slipcover includes a seat cushion covering portion with a rear edge. A cinching element terminating in first and second ends is secured therebetween to at least a portion of the rear edge of the seat cushion covering portion for reducing the effective peripheral dimension of at least a portion of the rear edge of the seat cushion covering portion. A main body covering portion of the slipcover is folded in a longitudinal direction and each end is sewn to itself to define arm covering portions. One longitudinal side of the main body covering portion of the slipcover is secured to the seat cushion covering portion and the other longitudinal side is preferably secured to a main body skirt covering portion, which conceals at least a portion of the base of the piece of furniture. A separate substantially planar front skirt covering portion is preferably integral to the seat cushion covering portion and extends therefrom over a front crevice defined between the front edge of the seat cushion and the base of the piece of furniture. The cinching element maintains the seat cushion covering portion positioned securely and neatly across the top of the seat cushion while the draped front skirt provides a slipcover draped appearance. Pairs of binding elements may be secured about the corners of the piece of furniture to further ensure that the slipcover remains properly positioned and to enhance the aesthetic appearance.
