What's the difference between a towelling robe and a bath robe?
A bath robe is the general name for a robe worn after bathing or while relaxing at home, while a towelling robe refers specifically to its absorbent fabric. Our organic cotton towelling robes feature soft, looped terry fabric that helps absorb moisture after a shower or swim, with a plush feel that's especially lovely on cooler mornings. Other bath robes may be made from lighter cotton or linen, offering a more airy feel for lounging and warmer weather. It all comes down to how and when you love to wear yours.
Are towelling robes too warm for summer?
Not necessarily! Our organic cotton towelling robes are naturally breathable, but their plush, looped pile gives them a thicker, cosier feel than lightweight cotton or linen robes. They're lovely for wrapping up after a morning swim, shower or a dip in the pool, even during the warmer months. If you're looking for something to lounge in on particularly hot days, a lighter cotton or linen robe may feel more comfortable. It all comes down to the season, the temperature and how you love to wear yours.
Will the robe shrink in the wash?
As our towelling robes are made from organic cotton, some natural shrinkage may occur during washing, particularly when exposed to high temperatures. To help maintain their shape, softness and fit, we recommend a cold, gentle machine wash with mild detergent, followed by a low tumble dry as directed on the care label. Avoid hot washes and high heat when drying, and always follow the individual garment care instructions to keep your robe looking and feeling its best.
Which size should I choose?
Our women's towelling robes are designed with a relaxed, comfortable fit, giving you room to wrap up and unwind. If you're between sizes, consider how you prefer your robe to feel. Choose the larger size for a roomier fit with extra coverage, or the smaller size for a closer feel. We recommend checking the individual product measurements and our sizing guide to find the best fit for you.
