A bathrobe, also known as a housecoat or a dressing gown, is a robe, a loose-fitting outer garment, worn by people. Bathrobes may sometimes be worn after a body wash or around a pool.
It is a dressing gown made from towelling or other absorbent fabric and may be donned while the wearer’s body is wet, serving both as a towel and a body covering when there is no immediate need to fully dress.
Bathrobes can be categorized by the weave of their fabric:
1)Velour: Velour is a pile fabric where the loops woven into the fabric have been cut. Velour can make a bathrobe appear more luxurious, cosier, and makes the garment soft to the touch.
2)Waffle fabric: Waffle fabric has good water absorbency. These bathrobes are designed for their lightweight over their absorbency.
3)Flannel: Flannel is a soft woven fabric, made from loosely spun yarn, usually cotton or wool.
It can also be categorised for its fibre types;
1)Silk: Silk robes are very thin and lightweight, and are not particularly suited to wet situations because they lack absorption. They are popular because of how it looks and how it feels and are relatively expensive.
2)Wool: Wool bathrobes are common in colder climates.
3)Nylon: Nylon is a synthetic fibre occasionally used in inexpensive dressing gowns. It is valued for its ability to be cleaned easily.
4)COTTON: It absorbs water easily and is frequently used at the beach, pool, or following a shower. Cotton robes are especially suited to use in hot climates because cotton tends to absorb perspiration.
Most bathrobes are designed as a wrapped-front garment with belt loops and a matching belt, intended to be tied around the waist to hold the garment closed. It has different collar designs which are:
1) Kimono collar: the collar forms a thin strip of consistent width, wrapping around the front in a Y-shaped manner.
2) Hoodie: A hood is sewn into the neckline, which can be worn over the head to keep it warm and help to dry wet hair.
3)Shawl collar: So-called because the collar closes around the neck like a shawl.
