In conversation dh dropped the info that he's bought himself something I was going to get him... He desperately needs a new dressing gown. He is a big lad (6'4") but mainly I am looking for a really lovely luxurious gown for max 30 quid Any recommendations?

my brother is 6 foot 7. i bought his dressing gown in primark and he adores it, its thick, fluffy, black and the perfect size for him. cost me £12. alternatively, they have some lovely dressing gowns in sainsburys, for about £16, they are so soft.

I've just got one for DH from the King of Cotton website. Their prices are really good and it arrived in no time.

It blows the budget but the Jedi Knight/Darth Vader ones on Play.com are huge - it would be very close to the floor even on a man over 6 feet. They are thick and soft and luxurious - and a great laugh too!

emsyj, I looked at those ones. Hmm - but the play.com ones are 144cm long, that's the length I'm looking for. I'm just not sure about the sleeves - aren't they a bit flappy, wouldn't they go into your cereal?

My DH is the same height as yours and has a lovely warm, long enough for him dressing gown from Debenhams (I'm currently wearing it!). He has had it a few years, but I just checked the website to see how much they cost now and similar looking ones are about £40. I can highly recommend this dressing gown as I wear it more than he does. I do have my own but his is much warmer and thicker.

Sorry, the dressing gown is wrapped and delivered now so I can't check the sleeve width. We got one for my SIL's boyfriend. He is v tall and broad and is a massive Star Wars fan. We got him a light sabre to go with it of course!
