Why it's on GiftsFeed

A floor-length silk robe that drapes without clinging

Most robes are built for warmth or absorbency, which means thick terry, fleece, or quilted cotton that traps heat and clings when damp. This one is cut from mulberry silk, so it does the opposite: it breathes, it drapes, and it stays dry against your skin. The fabric wicks moisture without soaking it up, so you can wear it straight out of the shower or through a warm night without feeling sticky or weighed down. The trade is that it offers no insulation, so it works only when you want coverage without added heat. If you run warm, sleep in air conditioning, or just want a robe that moves like fabric instead of a blanket, the difference is worth the hand washing.

Good gift when

  • People who run warm and want a robe that breathes
  • Anyone who prefers natural fibers over synthetics
  • Those who already know they like silk against their skin
  • Buyers willing to hand wash for the sake of fabric quality

Skip it if You need a robe that insulates or keeps you warm, or you prefer machine-washable fabrics that tolerate heat and tumble drying without special care.

The details

This robe is cut from 100% mulberry silk in a wrap-around silhouette that falls to mid-calf or lower on most wearers. The design features an adjustable silk tie at the waist, a relaxed fit through the shoulders and sleeves, and fifteen-inch splits at each side seam for ease of movement.

The fabric is the same slipsilk used in the brand's pillowcases: smooth, breathable, and cool against the skin. Unlike cotton or synthetic robes, silk wicks moisture without absorbing it, so the fabric stays dry and comfortable through the night or after a shower. The surface won't tug at hair or press creases into skin the way terry or fleece can.

The robe is offered in a single size with the following approximate measurements: 53 inches from shoulder to hem, 26 inches across the chest measured underarm to underarm, and 22-inch sleeves measured from the collar seam. Because each robe is handmade, individual pieces may vary slightly from these dimensions.

The wrap design means you adjust the fit at the waist rather than relying on closures. The tie is long enough to wrap and knot securely, and the overlapping front panels provide coverage without bulk. Side splits make it easier to move, sit, and lounge without the robe riding up or restricting your stride.

This is a warm-weather robe or a layering piece for air-conditioned spaces. Silk regulates temperature well but offers no insulation, so it works best when you want something between you and the air without added warmth. The black colorway hides minor marks and ages more gracefully than lighter tones.

Care requires hand washing or a delicate machine cycle in cool water, then air drying flat or on a padded hanger. Silk shrinks in heat and weakens in harsh detergents, so plan for gentle handling and longer drying times than you would with cotton or synthetics.

Questions

What size does this robe fit?
The robe is offered in one size with a wrap-around design that adjusts at the waist. It measures approximately 26 inches across the chest underarm to underarm and has a 53-inch length. The wrap style accommodates a range of body types, but there are no additional size options available.
Can I machine wash this robe?
You can use a delicate machine cycle with cool water, but hand washing is gentler and extends the life of the silk. Air dry flat or on a padded hanger—never tumble dry or expose to heat, as silk shrinks and weakens when subjected to high temperatures or harsh agitation.
Is this robe warm enough for winter?
No. Silk is breathable and temperature-regulating, but it provides no insulation. This robe works best in warm weather, air-conditioned spaces, or as a lightweight layer. If you need warmth, a fleece or quilted robe is a better choice.
Does the black color show water spots or marks?
Black silk hides minor marks and ages more gracefully than lighter colors, but water can leave temporary spots until the fabric dries completely. The surface is smooth and non-absorbent, so most spills bead up rather than soaking in.
How does silk feel compared to cotton or terry?
Silk is smooth, cool, and drapes without clinging. Unlike cotton or terry, it wicks moisture away from your skin without absorbing it, so it stays dry and comfortable. The fabric is lighter and more fluid than most robes, but it requires gentler care.
