I’ve turned into a robe person … crowd sourcing the proper wearing for a robe. Do you sleep in your robe? Do you wear clothes under your robe? Yes or no? |
No I don’t sleep in it. Sometimes I wear pajamas/loungewear under, sometimes just underwear.
While we’re on the topic, I’d love recommendations from the robe-wearers for a nice quality cotton robe for summer. I love my plush robe in winter but looking for something lighter. Bonus points if it’s a little flattering. |
I’m naked under my robe. I sleep naked. |
Never sleep in a robe! I wear underwear and a tshirt to sleep. |
I wear my robe over my pajamas, like a jammie sweater ![]() |
Bunch of old ladies… |
I have many robes.
Right now I am wearing a very soft robe with a sundress underneath. I also have a terry cloth one that's long and warm. I also have a short, absorbant, hot pink one and I used my husband's. I do not wear it to sleep. Sometimes I put it on over my clothes, like now. Sometimes I wear it naked like after a shower/while doing makeup and hair. |
Robe goes over lingerie, underwear, and nakedness before/after shower. Never wear to bed. |
Same. I have more than one. Heavy weight robes for winter and cotton or silk for summer. I never wear them to sleep in. |
I never sleep in my robes, but how I use them depends on the robe.
Robe #1-- full-length, terrycloth. This is for use immediately after exiting the shower/bath in the winter. Robe #2-- full-length satin. This matches a PJ set and is for lounging around while getting ready in the morning. Robe #3-- knee-length satin. This is for use after my shower/bath in the summer, or if I need to walk around the house before I am fully dressed. Robe #4-- mid-thigh-length satin. This matches one of my lingerie sets and is for intimate times. Robe #5-- crotch-length silk. This matches one of my lingerie sets and is for intimate times. Robe #6- crotch-length lace. This is for intimate times. Robe #7-- crotch-length satin and lace. This is for intimate times. |
You do realize that there are some robes that are quite sexy and are part of a lingerie set? |
I sleep naked and I put on the robe if I need to leave my room before I get dressed, or if a kid is up in the middle of the night.
Pre-kids I had more robe time. Some would say you need a winter robe and a summer robe. But I prefer a very thick terry, oversized, for all seasons. It’s so thick I’m not uncomfortable without a bra, which is key. |
Robe on over pajamas, or to cover my naked self after a shower or someone needs something in the middle of changing. I have a big fluffy winter one and a thin short summer one. Just thinking I would like a mid weight one for spring and fall.
Never sleep in a robe. Hangs n the back of the bathroom door. |
I have two robes. I don't sleep in either.
One is a silk robe that I wear after baths or shower. I don't wear clothes under it. Generally just a pair of underwear. I wear it when I'm planning on either getting dressed up to go out, or going to bed, but I am doing things around the house first. It's mainly so I can do things like apply makeup or skin products, do my hair or prepare it for bed, etc. without mussing up nice clothes or my pajamas. I also just really like the feel of the robe on clean, freshly moisturized skin. And it's a little sexy, so my DH likes it too. I also have a fluffy warm robe I wear in the winter when it's cold, usually in the morning when I get up. It goes with my slippers and makes it easier to get out of bed to feed the cat or make breakfast for my daughter when it's really chilly in the house. I wear it over my pajamas. |
Do you wear your robes to your mailbox? Is this just a tv thing? |
