Dressing gowns for elderly ladies
Brushed cotton, warm without the synthetic feel
Warm and breathable at once — the combination fleece cannot manage, because the base is still cotton
Soft from the first wear — no breaking-in period: the nap is raised at the mill, not by use
It looks like clothing, not like loungewear — which is what makes it wearable when someone knocks at the door
A full-length zip — faster than a belt and it stays shut, which matters most on a child who will not stand still

Overview
keyboard_arrow_downEverything below is why this flannel dressing gown is worth the hook it hangs on. Woven cotton brushed on both faces, so the nap holds warmth without a synthetic feel. In use: warm and breathable at once — the combination fleece cannot manage, because the base is still cotton. Made for the hours either side of sleep.

Start with what the garment is for: a dressing gown is for the hours either side of sleep: the kettle at seven, the sofa at ten. Flannel is a woven cotton brushed on both faces. The brushing raises a soft nap that traps warmth, without the synthetic feel of a fleece. That is the difference between a flannel robe and one that only looks the part.
In use it shows up as one thing: warm and breathable at once — the combination fleece cannot manage, because the base is still cotton. There is more of this in our dressing gowns for elderly ladies range.
Women ask about the cut through the shoulder and where the belt sits at the waist before anything else, and they are right to — it is where most robes fall down. That is also what our ladies dressing gowns zip up range is for.
Flannel pills slightly at the cuffs over a couple of winters. A fabric shaver takes care of it in two minutes, and the fabric is otherwise very long-lived. Machine wash at 40°C, tumble dry low. Treated that way, a flannel dressing gown lasts five winters rather than one — the difference between a robe you keep on the back of the door and one you replace every autumn. That is also what our zip up dressing gown range is for.
The three traps of a badly chosen dressing gown
What size should I take?
keyboard_arrow_downTake your usual UK size. It is cut loose so it goes over nightwear without pulling, and the belt takes up the rest. If you are between sizes, or if you want to wear it over a jumper, take the larger one. Full measurements are in the size guide above the buy button.
What is it actually made of?
keyboard_arrow_downBrushed flannel. In the hand it is brushed, warm and quietly smart. In use that means it is warm and breathable at once.
How do I wash it?
keyboard_arrow_downMachine wash at 40°C, tumble dry low. Wash it inside out and the nap lasts longer.
Will it be too warm indoors?
keyboard_arrow_downFlannel is warm and still breathes, which is the combination fleece cannot manage. It is comfortable indoors all winter.
