Repair sun damage?

my father gave me one of the arm chairs in our house. a really nice leopard print chair that i love. the fabric on the top of the chair and the arm coveres are faded from wear and sun damage. i know i cant restore the color to the fabric but it is also very dry, and i was wondering if there was anything i can do to fix the dry parts of the fabric.

 

thanks!

    I suggest you just leave the sun damaged area alone as anything you do could just damage the chairs further.  Sun damaged fabric is dry and brittle and any abrasion or rubbing could cause the fabric to fall apart.
