A high-fashion sofa

Cassina's page calls Dress-Up! a sectional sofa envisioned as a custom garment, with sophisticated details reminiscent of bespoke tailoring. The seam around the backrest and armrest forms a dart, and a zipper runs from it down to the base of the sofa, just like on a dress.

Elements to combine

The range includes a corner element in two lengths, a higher backrest cushion with an extra bolster, an integrated chaise longue, matching ottomans in two sizes, low tables and coordinated cushions. They can be combined in many arrangements or used individually.
