Why have Boden stopped doing Dressing Gowns????

[LaurieFairyCake]

They are missing a trick. I'm about to sell the fabulous one I got last year on ebay as it's way too big for me and I didn't wear it instead relying on the lovely one from the year before.

But of course I wanted to eye up the next one and they aren't doing any!

How many people under 60 wear dressing gowns though? I don't, neither does my sister or sil. Mil and my mu do though....

Living where i do a dressing gown of sorts is a must, but i prefer a cardigown in case anyone comes to the door, i notice Hush don't seem to have a cardigown this season but have a dressing gown albeit shortish.

[LaurieFairyCake]

It is a cardigown type and I wear it every day.

Last years was grey,knitted and calf length and very thick. The one from the year before was stripy knitted and knee length.

I think hikes in energy bills will have people wearing them again soon enough.

I wear one and I'm in my mid 20s. It's partly because of the way houses are designed here so the neighbours can see straight in and I tend to dash about nekkid otherwise and partly to do with warmth when it gets bloody cold.

What else do you wear when it's cold but you haven't dressed yet?

[ireallyagreewithyou]

they are ABOSLUTELY FANTASTIC

i got one in the sale a few eyars aho - stripey soft woolly

[ireallyagreewithyou]

i bloody love dressing gowns but the boden one is just lovely

[ColdSancerre]

I'm under 60 and I wear one. It's a waffley one from the white co.

I wear cardigans over my pjs though, love lounging around in the evening in M&S secret support pjs and cardi. Is a cardigown that type of thing?

OMG, Northernlurker, seriously? I'm 28 and everyone I know wears a dressing gown - my friends, my younger sister, everyone.

They keep you warm (esp when needing repeated pees throughout the night), keep you decent for the neighbours after a bath, or even when you don't want guests seeing you in a nightie first thing in the morning. I don't know anyone who doesn;t have a dressing gown.

Just for the record I adore my White Company one. It's so enormous it still does up now I'm 23 weeks pregnant, heavy towelling cotton and goes all the way to the floor. I love it and is essential when you're a cheapskate frugal like me and want to go as long as possible without central heating.

I'm 38 and I wear a dressing gown. I wear a nightie with thin straps so when I get up in the morning to make a cup of tea/let the dog out, I put it on to keep me warm. I also have a towelling dressing gown for when I get out of the bath/shower. We all wear them in our house and so does everyone else I know!

[Northernlurker]

Well you're all wronng and Johnnie and I are right

I wear a cardigan when it's cold. However I quite like the sound of a cardigown.....

[BikeRunSki]

I wear one, it is red and white stripey velour and has a hood.
Very handy for when DS (3) hauls me out of bed at some ungodly hour. I'm 40, but have always has one.
