The Ultimate Robe Buying Guide

How do I choose a good robe?

When choosing a good robe that works for your lifestyle, you may first determine when you’ll be wanting to wear the robe. Our organic cotton robes for women are ideal for layering over pajama sets, nightgowns, or sleep shirts, The crisp cotton is lightweight and breathable so it’s perfect for warmer seasons, but still plenty comfortable for colder climates. If you’re looking for something extra cozy, we suggest picking a flannel robe, velvet robe or sherpa robe. Our most lightweight style is our satin robe, a luxurious silhouette that is sleek enough to wear outside of the house as a fashionable duster. 

What is the softest type of robe?

Our women’s cotton robes are crafted from crisp organic cotton that gets softer with every wash. In many instances, people wonder why their cotton is not as soft after washing it, but our cotton poplin was designed to do the opposite. While we love our organic cotton, our robes also come in a variety of other fabrics. Shop our satin robes for women crafted from 100% eco-friendly viscose made from sustainably grown forests.
