Need Button Front Robes

LogoFan — Fri, 13 Dec 2019 17:24:57 GMT

Everything listed is mostly a tie front robe or zipper. I have always opted for Carole Hochman 3 piece sets with button front robe that were a practical length below knee but not to the floor, Lately, her robes have been more like a jacket.

Someone please bring at least a few button front robes. Much easier to manage.

Thanks to anyone who is listening.

I dont like buttons or snaps on robes, only zippers, Buttons and snaps tend to open up when sitting down, no issues with zippers. I pull them down about 3/4 of the way and step in and out of them, so no need to actually insert the zipper every time. I really dislike the robes with ties.

I only purchase robes with button or snap closures. I can usually find them at Macy’s or Lord and Taylor.

@LogoFan I'd bet if you do an internet search for "womens robes that button" you'd find some sources. Good luck!

Thanks for the suggestions ladies. I have ordered sleepwear from some department stores and sizing is not great.

I am asking QVC because I am at least familiar with sizing on certain brands like Stan Herman, Carole Hochman, etc. Sometimes Stan does buttons but then the robe is down to the floor on me. Only 5' tall and plus size.

Will check out suggestions though. Thanks again.

I can't wear robes with a tie - they never stay shut so I only buy robes with a zipper. Bigger problem is finding one in shorter sizes bc I'm only 5'2".

You might try Shop National dot com. I love that store and they have great sales and name brands. I'm with you, don't love zippers and prefer buttons or snaps.

I always had good luck at Kohl’s and Walmart. My mom liked button and short sleeved robes. I used to have good luck at K-Mart too.

I don't like zip front robes, either, as they tend to be scratchy with the big, heavy zippers and no facing along the zipper on the inside.

Shop National dot com has a lovely snap front robe in a sweatshirt-comfy material that I purchased about a month ago. Really like it. It is a long robe, but I think that they should be stocking shorter robes in the coming months. For those who like zippers, they have a cute terrycloth robe in a shorter length, in pretty pastel colors.

But what I really want is a pullover style lounger/robe. I bought the one that Coldwater Creek has but it also has a hood, which I do not like. (I might cut the hood off.)

I don't like 100% poly, I need at least 60% cotton blend material with NO SPANDEX so this makes robes that I like even more difficult to find.

I wish the Q would bring back more Carole Hochman and Stan Herman items. Until then, I'll be shopping and buying elsewhere.
