There is no British Standard for piping/braiding....many are not colour fast and some will bleed with water

Care is always required

 could you 'paint' the braiding with a bleach solution? with an artist paintbrush you could treat the braiding without touching the fabric.

A good upholsterer could replace the damaged braiding.

But he may have to do other areas to match colour in.

I once ripped a cushion on one side and was able to just have that side recovered.

Looked fine, custy happy.
