An end of the support member is hooked over a receiving portion provided within the seat frame with the support member being disposed within the seat frame. A first portion supported by the support member and a second portion that is not supported by the support member are formed in the seat pad on the seat frame, and a reverse side of the vehicle seat at the second portion is covered with the seat cover extending from a seating side of the seat pad around to the reverse side of the seat pad. A distal portion of the seat cover is retained by a retaining portion provided on a second portion-side end of the support member, the distal portion covering the reverse side of the vehicle seat at the second portion.
