Does a stylish dressing gown exist?

Or does everyone look like a fat flump in one?

Is it possible to be warm and stylish?

I have a hooded velour one from the White Company - very warm.
It’s difficult to find dressing gowns which are warm and stylish, without spending £££. They tend to be cashmere, or cashmere mixes.

Bown of London have some colourful ones.

I have several 100 Stars ones and they are very beautiful but not very warm.
I eschew style on a daily basis for my warm, ankle length towelling one with a hood (from John Lewis') that I wear straight out of the shower or bath in place of a towel. I replace it every Christmas because by December it's looking ratty with every day use.

Santa Claus is hopefully bringing this beautiful Meng creation for me. Always wanted a silk hand painted creation, not warm though!

I like the Hundred Stars ones but they aren’t warm.

I just buy warm pyjamas instead.

Gosh those shibumi ones are stunning!

I have been eyeing this Bombshell one for a while but it's in the shibumi price range:

@Glitterbaby17 - Shibumi sizing is generous, I'm a 20 and the XL is a nice wrap size. They are quite long - I'm 5'6" and it's just above floor length. Too long when going up the stairs, although I'm notoriously clumsy Blush. You have to hitch it. I bought www.shibumistyle.com/collections/all-casual-wear/products/reversible-dressing-gown-in-dragonfly-green
It's actually quite warm although not thick and it's soft and gorgeous and green or purple as it's fully reversible. I love mine and I wear it every day and feel like I'm a glamourous 1920's lady of leisure (when in reality I'm a frazzled wreck)Grin
