Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a dressing gown and a robe?

The terms dressing gown and robe are often used interchangeably in the UK, with both referring to a comfortable layer worn over nightwear or around the home. Dressing gowns often focus on warmth and coverage, while robes can include lightweight satin and shorter styles designed for getting ready or lounging.

What size dressing gown should I buy and do Boux Avenue offer plus size dressing gowns?

Choose your usual clothing size for a standard fit, or size up if you prefer an oversized dressing gown or want room for layers underneath. Boux Avenue dressing gowns come in a range of XS-L, although availability varies by style and the collection may not include dedicated plus sizes, so check individual product pages for exact sizing and fit information before ordering.

Long or Short: Which Dressing Gown Length Should You Choose?

You should choose a dressing gown length based on your personal preferences, the coverage you want and when you plan to wear it. Long and full-length dressing gowns offer extra warmth and coverage, while midi styles provide a cosy middle ground; short dressing gowns are versatile, lightweight and suitable for year-round wear. Explore our short dressing gowns for an easy-to-layer style, or choose a longer design when you want extra cosiness.

What is the best fabric for a dressing gown?

Always check your dressing gown's care label first, as washing instructions can vary depending on the fabric. Where the label permits, wash at 40°C with a gentle detergent and avoid using more detergent than necessary. For more advice, read our dressing gown care guide.

What can I wear with a dressing gown?

Dressing gowns pair beautifully with pyjamas, chemises and cami sets, whether you prefer a matching nightwear set or a relaxed combination of your favourite pieces. Add cosy socks and slippers for extra warmth and comfort around the house.

What is the best fabric for a dressing gown?

The best fabric depends on when and how you plan to wear it. Satin is lightweight and elegant, making it ideal for warmer weather and special occasions. Modal offers breathable, year-round comfort and is perfect for everyday lounging. Towelling is best for post-bath or post-shower wear thanks to its warmth and absorbency.

Do Boux Avenue dressing gowns have hoods and pockets?

Yes, selected Boux Avenue dressing gowns feature practical details such as hoods and pockets for extra comfort and convenience. For example, the Fluffy Striped Short Dressing Gown features an integrated hood and side pockets, making it ideal for cosy evenings at home.
