Best dressing gowns and bathrobes for men
Matthew Broderick’s grey waffle and cotton weave in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Bill Murray’s satin kimono in Lost in Translation or Brad Pitt’s coffee mug embroidered in Fight Club - the humble robe has a role in cinematic history.
A timeless staple of men’s fashion, robes can take your lounging to the next level from early mornings reading the papers sipping on cofee to cosy nights in front of the TV. These comfortable cover ups are true investment pieces that will stand the test of time, hung on the back of your bathroom door for years to come.
When choosing the perfect robe for you, it is important to consider the purpose of the piece as this plays into the choice of material and style. For duvet days and lazy Sundays on the sofa, you will likely prefer something sumptuously soft in jersey, cotton, cashmere or even luxe satin or silk variations. Whereas to wrap up straight from the shower, you need your robe to be absorbent, plush and likely crafted from a towelling or waffle fabrication.
Up your robe game with our selection of the best soft and stylish options worth splurging on.
