About this product
Women's Silk Dressing Gown
A wrap robe in real mulberry silk at 19 momme, which is the weight where a silk gown hangs and moves instead of floating.
Four sizes, and unusually for this range the listing publishes what they correspond to: UK dress sizes 10 to 12, 12 to 14, 14 to 16 and 16 to 18.
It arrives wrapped in a gift box, which is why it is bought as a present more often than for the buyer.

Got questions?
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this real silk?
Yes, 100% mulberry silk at 19 momme. The satin robes on this site are a synthetic weave at a much lower price.
What does 19 momme mean?
Momme is the weight measure for silk. At 19 the fabric has enough body to hang properly, which is the difference between a silk robe and a flimsy one.
What sizes are there?
S, M, L and XL, corresponding to UK dress sizes 10 to 12, 12 to 14, 14 to 16 and 16 to 18. That mapping comes from the listing rather than from us.
Which size should I pick?
It is a wrap robe with a belt, so it is more forgiving than a fitted piece. If you are between sizes, take the larger one, particularly if you plan to wear it over something.
What colour is it?
It is sold in a single colourway on this listing. The satin robe comes in white, black and pink if you want a choice.
How long is it?
It is a full length robe rather than a short kimono.
Does it have pockets?
The listing does not specify pockets, so we are not going to promise them. Ask us before ordering if that is the deciding factor.
Does it come with a belt?
Yes, a matching belt.
Does it come in a gift box?
Yes. It is supplied wrapped in a box, which is unusual in this range and is why it is bought as a gift so often.
Is it good after a shower?
It is a lounging robe rather than a drying one. Silk absorbs very little water compared with towelling.
Will it keep me warm?
It takes the chill off. Silk sits close to your own temperature rather than insulating, which is why it works in both summer and winter.
Does silk relieve skin irritation?
The old listing said so and we have taken it off. Silk is smooth, so it catches less than a rougher fabric, and some people with easily irritated skin prefer it. That is a preference rather than a treatment claim, and we are not making one.
Is it hypoallergenic?
We make no such claim. Anyone with a diagnosed silk allergy should avoid it.
Can I machine wash it?
Cold on a gentle cycle with a silk detergent, in a mesh bag, or dry clean it. Never bleach it and never wash it hot.
Can it go in the tumble dryer?
No. Hang it on a wide hanger away from heat and direct sunlight.
Does it need ironing?
Occasionally, on the reverse at a cool setting. A hot iron glazes silk permanently.
Will it shrink?
Not if you wash it cold. Hot water is the risk with any natural fibre.
Will the colour fade?
Slowly, and from sunlight rather than washing. Dry it in the shade.
Does it snag?
It can, on rings, watch straps and rough nails, as any silk does.
How long will it last?
Years with cold washing and shade drying. Heat, bleach and direct sun are what age silk, in that order.
Has the price changed?
Yes. This line carried an odd price for years, EUR 143, and we have brought it onto the same ladder as everything else on the site at EUR 139. It went down, not up.
How does it compare to the men's silk dressing gown?
Same fibre and the same 19 momme weight. The men's version is one size and EUR 239, this one is sized and EUR 139.
How does it compare to the satin robe?
The satin robe is EUR 59 and is a synthetic weave. This is real silk, and it handles heat and moisture in a way satin cannot.
Can I have it embroidered?
Yes. Embroidery and monogramming is a separate item on this site and goes on the same order.
How much is delivery?
Free. This robe is well over the EUR 75 threshold.
How long does delivery take?
Allow 5 to 7 days across Europe once your order is on its way.
Might it arrive separately from the rest of my order?
It can. This line ships from a different supplier to the rest of the range.
Can I return it?
Yes, 14 days from delivery to change your mind under EU consumer law, unworn and in resaleable condition with the box.
What if it arrives faulty?
Tell us and we will replace or refund it. There is no 14 day limit on a fault.
Do you sell matching silk pyjamas?
Yes. The women's mulberry silk pyjamas are a long set in the same fibre, and there is a silk camisole and shorts set for summer.

Buying Guide
6 min readSilk Pyjamas Europe
Real silk, and sizes you can actually check
This is a full length wrap robe in 100% mulberry silk at 19 momme, with a
matching belt. Nineteen momme is the weight at which silk stops floating and
starts hanging, which is what you want in a gown rather than a scarf.
It comes in four sizes, and this is one of the few listings in the range that
says what they mean: S is a UK 10 to 12, M a 12 to 14, L a 14 to 16 and XL a 16 to
18. A wrap robe is forgiving, so if you are between sizes take the larger one,
especially if you will wear it over pyjamas.
What we have taken off this page
The old listing said silk relieves skin irritation and carries skin benefits.
Those have gone. Silk is smoother than most fabrics, so it catches less, and
people with easily irritated skin often prefer it. That is a preference, not a
treatment, and it is as far as we are willing to put it.
One other honest note: the listing does not mention pockets, so we are not
promising any. The price has moved, from the EUR 143 this line carried for years
onto the same ladder as the rest of the site at EUR 139. It went down.
Living with it
Cold gentle wash with a silk detergent in a mesh bag, or dry clean it. Never
bleach it, never wash it hot and do not tumble dry it. Hang it on a wide hanger
out of direct sunlight, which fades silk faster than washing does. A cool iron on
the reverse if it needs pressing.
It arrives in a gift box, which is why most of these leave here addressed to
somebody other than the person who paid. If you want the matching sleepwear, the
women's silk pyjamas are in the same part of the
shop.
A women's full length dressing gown in 100% mulberry silk at 19 momme from Silk Pyjamas Europe at EUR 139, in S, M, L and XL corresponding to UK dress sizes 10 to 12, 12 to 14, 14 to 16 and 16 to 18. It is a wrap kimono robe with a matching belt and it arrives wrapped in a gift box. This is real silk rather than the satin robes elsewhere in the range. Silk Pyjamas Europe makes no skin irritation, medical or hypoallergenic claims for it; those were removed from the original listing. Pockets are not specified by the listing and the page says so. Cold gentle wash with a silk detergent or dry clean, no tumble drying. This line ships from a separate supplier so it can arrive separately. Free delivery across Europe, 5 to 7 days, with the full 14 day EU right of withdrawal.
