Looking for a LONG white dressing gown!

12 replies

amazonianwoman · 21/01/2008 11:14

Am I just not looking in the right places? Have tried M&S, John Lewis, Next etc

The one I have at the moment is down to my ankles (I'm 5ft10), white terry towelling but not too bulky or heavy, hooded, perfect, except it's over 10 yrs old and very grotty. As DS is (still) going through a not-sleeping-at-night phase and I spend half the night in it, I think I'm justified in buying a new one

Except I can't find one that is long enough, or doesn't have hideous embroidery on it, or isn't so bulky I'd look like an elephant in it??

Anyone know if the White Company ones are really long?

Help please

The White Company ones are really long - they remind me of hotel robes!

White Company ones are fab, but may be too short? I have 2 and they are long on me (not too long, just the right length) but I'm only 5ft 2.

I got mine (white and long) from Rosebys of all places.

MissingMyHeels · 21/01/2008 21:49

Ahh yes, I am only 5ft3, forgot that!

Womba1 · 21/01/2008 21:50

I'm 6ft and i have one from Long Tall Sally which almost touches the floor!
My Auntie bought it for me so i have no idea about the cost etc... but it's gorgeous, plain white and has a kind of 'waffle like' patternation to it.

I have a very long white one with a hood. It is gorgeous and quite heavy....got it from the White Company.

WHy not email the WHite CO and ask them which is their longest? Their robes are def longer than the average, but you are taller than most so bit hard for us shorties to comment
