The warmest winter robe I have ever worn came from L.L. Bean. I've worn out a few in my lifetime and I keep going back for more. There's just no comparison when it comes to the warmth they provide and I need that in my cold house this time of the year.

Joan Rivers hooded velour lounger is my favorite, I have several of them that I bought on QVC & eBay...I thought Q might restock them before before the Holidays but it's no longer available.


I think I have that robe in navy.  I do like it but it's not the robe I put on first thing in the morning when I'm cold because the silky feel of the inside of the robe does not warm me up.  However, it's a great looking robe for hanging out in before I get dressed.

I bought this on clearance recently and it's great for the weekends when I don't want to get dressed out of bed! Keep in mind I live in Miami so this works out well all year long

It's Rhonda Shear from HSN and it comes in black and fuscha also and worth every penny of the $23.99

My favorite robe for cold weather is from PJ Salvage and when it gets really cold I put on my down robe from The Company Store.  Nothing warmer than down.

My favorite is a leopard print Joan Boyce robe from 5 or 6 years ago, with matching slippers. I regret not getting another at the time, because the quality is impeccable. It launders well and looks almost as good as it did when it was new. I will miss Joan.

I only like snap front robes and they aren't the easiest to find.  I have on from Blair and another from a now defunct company which is almost worn out.  I think snap front ones are just so easy -- no buttons to lose, no zippers to break!

Blair is great for around the house fleece. Myfavorite robe is the popover lounger with the kangaroo pockets. I also have the zip up bathrobe and the snap bathrobe. the price is great and they wash and wear on and on.

I also have a couple of their fleece jackets which are really very light and great for around my cold house in New England. also they are long on me -they do carry petites.

Just look for sales and free shipping. 

the drop needle robes are great for summer/warm climates

I seem to do a lot of thinking about robes. Probably because I can't wear the tie around the waist style (makes me look like a rolled up sleeping bag) and I want a high real fabric content because the polyester fabrics carry static electricity which I don't need in the winter, and because they are not warm. The ones that fasten up the front almost always look like nursing home styles. (and I am not young) I think back to the 1930's and 40's when design was so flattering. I wonder why robes cannot be good looking, flattering, stylish and warm. Why is that so hard?

I like the winter robes at Kohl's. This is the Good for Life French Terry Short Robe. It comes in 12 colors. There's also a long version. These make good Christmas gifts. They're thick and soft. The short one is on sale right now for $17.

I'm in the market for a new robe.  I'd like something soft, cozy, and warm going into winter.  I've looked at the malls, but passed on everything because they didn't pass the touch test--not soft enough or cozy enough.  I'm sure it's out there somewhere.
