20+ Best Robes for Women—Shop Silk, Plush, and Terry Options

Bleary-eyed mornings and the frazzled ends of long days could do with a little elegance. While slipping on a plush robe won’t solve all your problems, it may make tackling them feel just a little more pleasant: Waking up at 6:00 to make breakfast and answer emails? Banal, tragic, ill-advised. Waking up at 6:00 to make breakfast, answer emails, and wear a fabulous silk kimono? Sophisticated, enterprising, possibly up to something.

The very best robes for women do just that: Whether made from silky sateen, sumptuous cotton, or airy linen, they’re a small way to elevate the mundane, rotate in some new loungewear, and make the quiet moments of your day just a little more comfy.

Our edit spans style and price point, with top picks from brands like Matouk, Petite Plume, Tekla, and Olivia Von Halle. All different in their varied fabrics and patterns; all equally lush to wrap up in. Below, 24 of our favorite women’s robes.

The Classic Bathrobes

If you’ve ever seriously considered making off with the plush robe in your hotel room, these picks are the second-best option to petty crime. Designed to be absorbent—and possibly even replace your bath towels—this post-shower category highlights cotton robes in a terry cloth finish; though Matouk’s soft waffle-weave is a notable exception. Minimalist piping from items at Hill House Home and Zara adds a nice finishing touch; the latter is even a hooded robe, for maximum coziness.

The Lightweight Picks

The call to be cozy while lounging without overheating is a tricky balancing act to master; enter, lighter-weight bathrobes in stretchy jersey, breathable linen, and crisp organic cotton. Within this category, the styling gets more flexible. Parachute offers up subtle texture in the form of a Turkish cotton robe aptly called The Cloud; Deiji Studios’s take on a kimono includes a contrasting waist tie and stonewashed French linen.

The Cozy Ones

Come winter, your robe has some heavier lifting to do. Stay warm and wrap up in something ultra-soft and, preferably, lined in plush fleece—Lake Pajamas makes a shawl-collar mini that fits the bill. For even more coverage (and the benefit of an extra-dramatic silhouette), opt for a longline style like this velvety plum pick from Natori or Arlotta’s creamy cashmere wrap that feels just like one of your favorite sweaters.

The Striped Prints

Squeeze some pattern into your everyday with a stripey robe. Classic blue-and-white picks from Brooklinen and Copenhagen brand Tekla come in super soft, absorbent cotton terry; for the maximalist, go the color-saturated route with options in deep ochre and emerald.

The Slinky Silk

If you’re the kind of person who prefers to be ensconced in luxury 24/7, a silk or satin option is the way to go. Whether you stick to the classics with a simple white option—also a great gift for any brides-to-be in your life—or pick up something printed, like this peachy Olivia Von Halle number, it’ll make a task as trivial as peeling boiled eggs feel indulgent.
