The first thought that comes up immediately after the idea of making studied clothes for yourself is about the best material. Therefore, it’s not enough just to want a bathrobe, you also need to figure out what it is for. And this is already pushing us to determine the model of the future gown.
The traditionally studied product is divided into two types: home and bath. And actually, this explains their purpose. But if you delve into the topic in more detail, it will become clear that the robes are also of other types:
- Warm - a long product of a direct silhouette, characterized by a large smell. Patterns of gowns for men, women and children are discussed below.
- Kimono - a thing that reaches almost to the heels, has wide sleeves and is most often made of silk or satin.
- Summer is a wardrobe item suitable for home, summer house, and even for a trip to the light. The main thing is to choose the right material.
- Wrap dressing gown is another very remarkable version of the studied product. It may also be suitable for the role of a “decent” outfit, in which it is not a shame to go out into people.

Patterns of bathrobes will be offered next. But first, it’s important to deal with one more question. It consists in choosing the right material.
What fabric for a dressing gown should I choose?
Earlier it was mentioned that bathrobes are traditionally divided into two main types: home and bath. The former are suitable for everyday life; they are summer, demi-season, and winter. Therefore, they are sewn mainly from warm fabrics. The second put on only after water procedures. For this reason, their primary tasks are to perfectly absorb moisture, protect steamed skin from injuries and allow it to breathe. Sewing such a product is necessary from natural fabrics, because others (artificial or synthetic) will not justify the purpose of the dressing gown.
Recommended fabrics for bathrobes: satin, knitwear, fleece, waffle fabric, microfiber, polyester, viscose.
Recommended fabrics for bathrobes: terry (necessarily natural), cotton, velor, bamboo.
In addition, for both types of gowns, the use of combined materials consisting of natural and artificial or synthetic is permissible. This will combine the advantages of each type of fiber. That is, to provide good absorbency, respect for the skin and low creasing, as well as make the product much more attractive and significantly extend its life.
