No, a Victorian sofa and a fainting couch are not the same thing. A Victorian sofa is a type of seating with a specific design style typical of the Victorian era, while a fainting couch is a specific type of chaise longue with a raised back and one raised side. Fainting couches were designed for women to rest on if they felt faint during the Victorian era.
