Great selection but she does not take credit cards! Also, lack of qualified help! You are on your own!

Very disappointed with my recent visit. I've shopped here before without issue, but this experience was completely different. First, Google listed the opening time as 10 a.m., but the store did not open until 11. We had driven from Baltimore to get ahead of bad weather, tried calling multiple times, and found the voicemail full. There's no website to confirm hours, so we were left guessing whether to wait. Once inside, we spent nearly two hours selecting eight fabrics for multiple projects. Many fabrics were not priced, and the single employee cutting fabric had to repeatedly walk to the front of the store to ask the owner for pricing or answers to basic questions, which made the process extremely slow. The final issue was a large-print fabric that had deep slashes running several yards into the roll, along with visible black marks. I asked that the damaged portion be cut off or that cutting begin from the other end of the roll. The owner refused and told me that if I didn't like it, I didn't have to buy it, stating multiple times that they are a "for profit store." I have over 50 years of experience buying fabric and have never been expected to pay for clearly damaged yardage. We ultimately walked out without purchasing anything, leaving eight rolls at the cutting table--well over $1,000 in sales lost. It's disappointing to see how much this store has changed. It was once staffed by knowledgeable, helpful people who wanted to assist customers. I won't be returning. read more

Haute Fabrics - Fabric Stores Near Me - Chantilly, Virginia

Huge selection piled up in a big mess with an obnoxiously arrogant, rude, and unhelpful owner clearly not wanting to be there running the store. Walked in and walked out two times thinking that that the owner was having a bad day the first time but no, they're like this every day. Clearly they don't care about their customers or their own business. Shame. To the owner: sell the business and free yourself from the misery. ZERO stars. read more

I want to stop in here when i don't even need fabrics b/c their selection is that good. I just love to see what they have - they do have a great workroom and can deliver if too large to pick up yourself - and finally, you just can't beat the prices. Added plus, The owner is charming! read more

I have had a terrible experience with Haute! The owner is problematic to deal with. She rarely returns calls. Although the selection of fabric is abundant, never order more than a sample of current stock from a swatch if you are trying to match another fabric. I was disappointed twice! Buyer beware... read more

I read the reviews and knew store didn't open until 11. Tried to call but no message and messages full. SILLY me--I still went to the store. No sign-no one there to open. Again silly me waited for an hour hoping someone would come open the store as it was a Thursday--but my hopes were dashed, I wasted an hour to go out there --LEAVE A NOTE ON DOOR at least if you can't open on time--OR LEAVE a message what hours will be. That is just courtesy. I won't go again--a waste of time--and obviously she doesn't care. I don't care who is sick-if there is one person then they can open on time or leave a note. read more

I am not sure what is happening at Haute Fabrics but customer safety and service is not a priority Z It has always been an untidy store. Now is is chaotic and frankly dangerous to move around. It is understaffed and they are overwhelmed . They also need to put prices on their fabrics. Would save everyone a lot of time. So sorry to see the store go down like this read more

Haute has an enormous selection of beautiful, designer fabrics. They are understaffed so you must fend for yourself. I was told one of the owners, the friendly one, is having health issues and cannot work - that is why the store is going downhill. It's definitely still worth a visit ;-). read more

If you are looking for upholstery fabric, this is the place. There are bolts upon bolts in several rooms. Staff is pleasant. Was greeted by an older lady who asked if she could help me. I told her I was looking for apparel fabric which she said she doesn't carry But since I made the drive out there I looked around. Glancing at some of the prices, they were in line with the few remaining fabric stores. Plus, there was a large selection of trims . If I decide to reupholster anything this is where I am coming for the fabric. read more

Haute Fabrics! What a wonderland of options! I never could have bought the fabrics that I chose in a retail shop. The fabrics are well organized and the staff knows exactly where everything is. Also, very helpful in finding just what you are looking for. With a business mind and the artistic vision, this is the only place I found to be competent as well as very well stocked. The options of fabrics, trim, tassels, etc. is almost overwhelming! With so many choices, who can decide without their helpful advise? It is well worth the trip to the business just to look at the art that is in the fabrics and notions! I have found it the only place to find designer fabrics at a reasonable price.

Drove 30 minutes, arrived at opening time, 10:00. Finally left at 10:45. No one answered phone or opened shop. Heading to Calico Corners now. All the shopkeeper had to do was post on IG or their Google page that they were unexpectedly closed. They do t have a website. Very disappointing. read more

As promised, I returned since it was time to redo my couch. I was on the mailing list so I went when they had a fabric sale. They were helpful in choosing a fabric. I showed measurements and we arranged pickup and potential delivery dates when done. When they came to pick it up we had some challenges getting it out the door. But I promised to take the door of when it was delivered back to me. The workmanship on the couch was EXCELLENT! Not only did they cover it, but they changed the foam, updated the tacks, and touched up the wood frame. It was an A++ job!! The covering was so professional and they matched the pattern perfectly. Before, during, and after there was a lot of communication about the job and how it would be done. I liked that. I mentioned I wanted the arm covers when I placed the order but somehow that got lost in communication. They quickly rectified the situation. The made them and sent them by mail. Communication was a bit of a three-way the whole time. I'd call the store and miss him. Then they would talk to their guy and he would call me but I'd miss him, etc. but all worked out. Highly recommend this place if you are recovering your couch. A lot of love, pride, and workmanship goes into what they do. read more

Haute Fabrics - Fabric Stores Near Me - Chantilly, Virginia

Walked in walked out, not friendly at all. I don't know if it's for a "specific" reason or just generally not welcoming. I will never visit again. The person in the store didn't speak. The sad part is that I saw a fabric that would have purchased for bed to be refurbished with. Oh well I'll find another store. read more

Absolutely I would recommend Haute Fabrics to anyone!! The service is amazing, their selection is beyond anything I've ever seen. Their prices are outstanding. I have been going to them for 20 years. read more

I had a laughing fit over these yelp reviews. It was likely because of my husbands narration in his best Karen voice, but I could not wait to go to this store. Y'all we had the best time in there! We were planning to pick some boring fabric for our chairs and wound up with this super funky/cool fabric. We love it! The woman helping us was so great. She was so into the whole process and we had such a good time. It is overwhelming in there but what isn't? We jumped in and just started going through it all. It was a good time. Sure wasn't cheap but literally nothing is anymore so yolo. Would def recommend. read more

Huge selection - give yourself plenty of time. Staff was fantastic. Be patient with yourself and explore.

First and foremost I waited to see if I was less angry so this was 6 months ago and I still think this was some of the worst customer care I have ever experienced. Went in to find chair fabric. Had to ask for help after being ignored. Explained what we wanted down to the rub count and blend. Was then told the fabric in front was "too expensive" for us. We were taken to the large warehouse area had the very clear color areas pointed out, told they didn't know what the fabrics were made out of, and then abandoned. Needless to say we did not buy anything here. read more

The staff are extremely cordial and accommodating. I needed to select material for my dining room chairs that would not only compliment the new color of the walls but stay resistant to my cat trying to claw the seat. This dining room set belonged to my mother and I wanted to get as close as I could in a design material without having to give up the claw resisting factor. It was a great success and they recommended places to get the foam padding for the chairs. They recovered the bench seat at the end of my bed last year and did a beautiful job. read more

I'm glad I came here to read the reviews, because I certainly thought the shop owner was rude to me specifically. Turns out, as shared in many of these reviews, she's just rude period. That said, this place has a great selection of luxury home decor fabrics and the prices, while high, are less than many of the online fabric sources I have trade accounts with. Just expect the shop dog to be the friendliest being you encounter there and you'll be fine. read more

There is so much fabric to choose from, it's over whelming. But after going to all the usual places to find upholstery fabric, only to find a paltry and disappointing selection at Hobby Lobby and Jo Ann's, I gave this place a try. Glad I did! Walking in, there is every fabric that was ever made in this store. If it's not here, it doesn't exist. I rarely need fabric, so didn't know where to go. I was designing a home theater and needed some fabric for audio panels. This place made the difference in the outcome of my theater! I bought the most gorgeous fabric ever created by the hand of man from this place. They gave me a fair price too. read more

Find a larger selection of fabrics and you're really done some work. They also do very good reupholstery work....

Had read the reviews and even tho many were negative, it was closer than anywhere else and was on my way to CostCo! :) Gotta say, either they've hired new people or just changed their attitude, the staff and owner couldn't have been more helpful. Prices are fine, and nearly everything was marked. Hard to see everything they have, but it's organized as well as can be expected with THAT much fabric. I took longer in the store than I thought I needed to, but Pam (I think) was with me every step of the way helping me try and find just what I was looking for even tho I had no idea. Will definitely come back for my next project! read more

Haute Fabrics - Sooooooooo much fabric. This is a long row of it, but not ever a tenth of what is there. - Fabric Stores Near Me - Chantilly, Virginia

Little hard to find in a mixed industrial/retail area, but worth the effort. Don't go in w pre-existing ideas of fabric you want. When you go into the back room, selection can be overwhelming! And don't expect help with anything. You just paw through the bolts. But gorgeous upholstery and decorator fabrics. Can't wait Togo back! read more

Went today for the first time to check it out, I was immediately greeted by a small dog in a sweater and both ladies working in the front of the shop. Headed to the back room where we were again greeted and delighted to see the enormous amounts of fabric. I didn't purchase anything today only because I didn't have my swatches or measurements. Chatted with the dog and ladies in the front for a few minutes, overall very impressed with the staff and shop. read more

Haute Fabric has the most amazingly beautiful fabric with great pricing. The staff is very nice and helpful. But I spent about $1000 with Haute to have them make me custom chair cushions. The material they used inside the cushions are sub-par. After sitting on the cushions just a few times, they feel like I have had them for 20 years; they feel flat and provide little comfort. And I specified I wanted a firm cushion. I am very disappointed. read more

Get Over It! This is an amazing store that you would expect to find in NYC. Best prices Best Selection and they DO NOT tolerate idiots. But it you approach and ask for guidance they are amazingly helpful. The rude reviews are from people who should shop at lesser places. This is a high end interior fabric store not a carpet warehouse. read more

Too much fabric, piled sky high. I just don't trust it not to be old and shop worn. I don't know how anyone decides on any fabric. Also, I found the prices higher than I expected. The lady that works there is very nice and friendly. The owner, IMHO should just stay home. It would help her business. read more

After reading the comments about the rude owner I still decided to give this store a try. I arrived at this store 20 minutes prior to closing. The lights were dim, but not off and there was a car parked in front of the store. I noticed a woman parked with glasses half off her face angrily staring at me. I waved and asked if it was her store, she proceeded to lock her doors and started her car...I went to the door to see if the store was still opened, it was locked. On my way back to my car she asked me what I needed (at a fabric store). I told her I needed leather and linen fabric, she asked what I was using it for, what color I need. After interrogating me for wanting to spend my money at her store I told her not to worry about and I'd shop somewhere else. FYI, I'm a black male, I pulled in driving a recently released escalade and dressed in business casual. Not sure why I got the treatment I did, but definitely my first and last time attempting to buy something at this store. read more

I felt very welcomed and love the selection. So many upscale options at great prices. Just the kind of place you find that special treasure. Go there. read more

I just visited this store for the first time. The customer service was amazing and what a delicious selection selection of high end textiles. Elizabeth Spent lots of time with me explaining how their design services work. As soon as my new home is built I I will be calling on them for many design service. read more

This store has a huge selection of high-end fabrics and trims. You have to work to find what you need, but if you have the patience they have an amazing inventory. read more

Unbelievable! This is a fabric lovers dream for everything for your home! I haven't seen such a great collection of designs, textures and notions in a very long time. The prices are unbeatable..They are super friendly and eager to assist. The place is clean and organized, and if they don't have it, they will help you find it. The most incredible trims I have ever seen! Yes, they also do upholstery work, and curtains, pillows etc... I have no idea what the other ladies were saying about organization..If you want it all on the racks, go to Calico Corners, but expect to pay three times the amount. Go check it out! read more

This place is a gold mine; especially if you're a textile lover and get excited about climbing over rows of bolts to find the PERFECT print. The staff is amazing and the prices are amazingly hard to believe. I would consider this a warehouse; a supply of end runs at great prices without the fluff. They do have the extras, such as upholstery services, but they are true fabric hounds. Haute is the place where you scour mounds of material until your heart is happy! read more

I love this place! The only reason I didn't end up buying anything was because there were so many options that I had to go home and think about it. Customer service is amazing and they're all very nice and helpful. The lady helping us had her three adorable little dogs sleeping right next to her desk which I think adds to the whole experience :). It's a little hard to get to but once you get inside there are rows and rows of fabrics and trims to choose from, I will be going back! read more

Haute Fabrics - Just a few of the rows of fabrics available. - Fabric Stores Near Me - Chantilly, Virginia

I drove 30 miles to go to this fabric store. The woman and her helper were so unfriendly that after waiting 20 minutes to get a sample of fabric I walked out. There were no other customers in the store at this time. Yes, they do have fabrics and trim. Customer service is more important. read more

This store is NOT for the faint at heart. It's for people who want GREAT fabrics for a fraction of what they'd cost retail. Yes, you have to sort through STACKS and STACKS of bolts of fabrics. As an interior designer, I recognize many fabrics and know they're being given away compared to what you'd pay at a design center. HOW and WHY? Because they are overruns and some colors may (or may not be) slightly off. Even the best mills need to make room for more production. Be prepared to come, buy and TAKE what you want with you. No need to wait for the fabric to arrive or not. I'm sold. Haute can recommend workrooms for curtains and upholstery. Do not be put off by its sometimes chaotic feel. It's wonderful. read more

Always a fantastic selection with a knowledgeable staff ready to help you choose just the right fabric for your project. Great prices. Have been a customer for fifteen years and they are the best! read more

Tons of fabrics. Literally. Good quality. Staff was very helpful. I went on a Saturday and they told me they have designers available for questions a couple days during the week so next time I would go during the week and try to catch them. However I am really happy with the beautiful fabric I picked out. There are so few good fabric stores left so I really appreciate this store. They also have upholstery and sewing services. If you haven't been here you should go. read more

i have been a customer for about five years. I have spent a few thousand and saved a few thousand. I have to drive nearly an hour to get there but we'll worth it. Heather, Roxene, Romeo and Elizabeth are always ready to help. I have highly recommendEd Haute to several friends. read more

Love this store!!!! Wonderful discount quality home decor fabrics. Shopped here for years and have followed the store through many Location. Huge selection of upholstery, drapery, trims and cording. Larger store than the past stores!!!! Stocked rolls of fabric to purchase at the store and take with you. Be ready to dig through rolls of fabric. It is a treasure hunt, but you will find that jewel. Found high end designer fabrics: Romo, Kravet Couture, Robert Allen, Scalamandre, Brunschwig and Fils, Clarance House etc. They will give decorating advice and pulled together a room for me. Their upholster and seamstress helped complete my living room. Now working on my dining room. Small staff so have patience but they do wonderful design work and suggestions. Prices you will like!!! Great store since there are no more fabric stores around. Don't like to shop on line, because you can't feel and see the fabric. Here it is all here. Linen, velvets, mohair, silks, cotton twill, wool, blends, indoor/outdoor, high performance fabrics, leather hides, decor pillows, pillow inserts and trims!!! read more
