18 best women’s dressing gowns and robes to buy in 2025 – from luxury to affordable finds
It's officially cosy season 😍
Electric blankets, cosy dressing gowns, and snuggly pyjamas at the ready — we’re officially approaching the season where it’s appropriate to relish the chance to stay swaddled in fluffy layers all day. Whether you're settling down for a movie marathon, working from home, having a pamper sesh, or embracing JOMO, a dressing gown or robe is the cherry on top of a night in or lazy day.
But let's be real, the best dressing gowns aren’t just for the cold weather, they’re a year-round loungewear staple that completes your capsule wardrobe (and looks so cute with your slippers). On warmer days, wrap yourself in a lightweight waffle or satin robe during your morning beauty routine, or use it purely for the pre- and post-shower dash. As temps drop, a snuggly sherpa or super-fluffy, hooded robe is exactly what you need to snuggle on the sofa with the latest TV series. The bottom line? Dressing gowns and robes are fashion’s MVPs.
Where to buy the best women’s dressing gown
Browsing department stores like Selfridges and Net-a-Porter is always a good idea if you want to explore a range of different brands in one go. But if you really want the scoop on our personal fave dressing gown, it has to be Loungeable's "Cuddle me" dressing gown. I mean, with a name like that and a £52 price tag, who can resist?
If we really wanted to treat ourselves, though — perhaps for a hen weekend or birthday sleepover — we’d certainly entertain the idea of the gorgeous Eberjey, lace-trimmed beauty we found over at Selfridges. She may be expensive, but she’s a lifetime investment.
Whatever you’re looking for, we’ve searched long and hard for the best women’s dressing gowns on the market, ranging from designer and premium robes from The White Company to independent picks like TBCO and affordable picks from your classic high street heroes like H&M and Lounge. Plus, if you’re quick, you might even be able to bag yourself one (or the lucky person you’re shopping for) at a mega discount in the Black Friday sales!

Lounge might have started as a lingerie brand, but it’s now branched out into cosy sleepwear and loungewear, too. This full-length hooded dressing gown is exactly what we want to slip into after a long day.
Kim Kardashian knows a thing or two about loungewear if the success of her SKIMS line is anything to go by. We’re eyeing up this super-soft modal ribbed short robe, perfect for shrugging on over the top of whatever outfit you're wearing around the house.
This ultra-cosy, super-plush robe will make you feel (and look) as toasty as a giant marshmallow. We are obsessed with the look and price point.
Want to feel glam AF while you're lounging at home? This satin dressing gown (made from a breathable lyocell fabric) with wide sleeves is the answer. We love this chic beige shade, but it also comes in khaki green and classic black.
Boux Avenue Waffle Cotton Dressing Gown Robe
When it comes to dressing gowns, there are two camps: the plush, fluffy types or absorbent post-shower wraparounds. You can't go wrong with one of each in your arsenal. This waffle style is as chic as it is practical as you can wear it straight from the shower.
This 100% Terry cotton bathrobe is soft to the touch and 100% snuggle-approved. Layer it over cosy PJs in the depths of winter or on top of your cute cami set during spring-summer.
Desmond & Dempsey is beloved for its fun prints that span from tigers and cacti to wild botanicals.
Wolf & Badger stocks a host of cool, indie labels — conscious brand, Timeless Collection being one of them. If you don't want to feel bulky, just covered (and snuggled up), this lightweight, silk design is one for you.
From bridal to holiday-ready gowns, a short, slinky dressing gown is a piece to consider for all seasons. Don't sleep on Eberjey's offering. Pun intended.
Chelsea Peers master home longewear like no other brand and its pyjama offerings are outstanding, so it's no surprise that the brand offers equally impressive dressing gowns. Notable points are awarded for the folded collar and (you've guessed it) the pockets.
Cool girl brand Djerf Avenue was envisioned by social media influencer Matilda Djerf Avenue and her deliciously fashionable offerings extend to snuggly dressing robes awash with adorable motifs. We're sold.
Kai Collective has garnered a loyal fanbase committed to celebrating the joy of saturation and the brand's spirited designs don’t stop at apparel. One of the most coveted items is the unisex Gaia robe (hooded, no less) awash with bold swirls of bold colour. It’s guaranteed to bring some light to your winter nights. Take your pick from the purple, forest green and orange colourways.
For a sophisticated offering, opt for a streamlined fit. Mango's vertical pinstripe will put you in good standing (or sitting).
Who's to say you can't wear your duvet around the house? With this White Company style, you can remain as toasty as you are under the covers whilst you're pottering around the house. Win win!
When it comes to dressing gowns, designs are getting more and more creative. This raised jacquard style is classic and unique. It looks incredibly cosy too!
We strongly believe that everyone should be making more conscious choices and Nudea is an independent brand spotlighting loungewear and pyjamas.
It doesn’t get more glam than this stunning lace-trimmed robe from Gilda & Pearl. With a cute kitten heel and LBD underneath, we'd even argue it’s appropriate for dinners and dates — lingerie as outerwear, right?
Imagine a dressing gown that feels like a warm hug as soon as you slip it on... this style provides exactly that. The waffle-knit texture and faded colour blocking totally make it a sartorial nod to the mid-century modern aesthetic.
