2. Gilda & Pearl Reverie Robe

Review

Founded in 2011, American brand Gilda & Pearl favours vintage-inspired designs and materials. Inspired by the costumes of Hollywoods classic ‘Femme Fatales”, their pieces are exquisitely designed, expertly crafted, and stunningly beautiful.

Made with the most delicate Leavers lace and trimmed with silk, this gown could have been conjured from the dreams of a thousand would-be 1950s Hollywoods starlets.

Entirely sheer and nude-toned with gold embroidery and a white silk sash, this piece is exquisite, opulent, and altogether indulgent. Although incredibly revealing, the subtle shimmer of the fabric will ensure you feel stunning!

Like the starlets of the silver screen, this robe is both bold and subtle; you can’t help but feel sexy while wearing it.

70% Polyamide, 30% Silk

3. Myla London Estelle Road Long Gown

Review

Myla London has a truly stunning range of lingerie that pays homage to its British roots with iconic range names like Covent Garden and Primrose Hill.

This boudoir dressing gown is a classy and beautiful fusion of Hollywood glamour and 70s design. The sheer, soft tulle is a delicate shade of peach which gives it a gently feminine look, while the silk trims and sash add a touch of luxury.

It’s the oversized, laser-cut embroidered flowers add such wonderfully eye-catching structure, especially as it nears the floor and kicks out the hem.

With a fresh and funky feel, this robe embodies youthful feminine sexuality. It feels fresh, innocent, yet empowering enough to put a spring in your step.

Composition:

70% Polyamide, 30% Silk

4. Carine Gilson Skyfall Long Robe

Review

Designer Carine Gilson began her career in the 1990s after graduating from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp. After studying fashion, she found a love of lingerie which fused with her passion for her craft; both endure to this day.

Her dedication to producing high-quality, beautiful lingerie has made her brand synonymous with luxury. The Skyfall robe is a perfect embodiment of Carine Gilson’s style.

Made of fine satin silk and Caudry lace it is emblazoned with a delicate, floral pattern and holds an exquisite silhouette. If you’re quite modest, this gown is for you. It is sensual, feminine, and attractive but not sheer.

The gown can be paired with a matching slip dress but needs no bolstering. When you pull this robe on, you cannot help but feel soothed, balanced, and empowered.

Composition:

100% Satin Silk

5. Fleur du Mal Cillis Lace Robe

Review

Inspired by powerful and empowered women, Fleur du Mal was founded in 2012 by Jennifer Zuccarini. The brand celebrates unashamed femininity, which is clearly demonstrated in the design of their stunning pieces.

The Cillis lace robe is pure Fleur du Mal – sheer, knee-length, and trimmed with silk. It is indeed very sexy and striking. Fleur du Mal note that this can be worn as a boudoir gown or as a gown worn over clothing when you go out. They also offer a matching short slip for a sultry after-dark look.

However you choose to wear this gown, it will make you feel every inch the sophisticated, sexy socialite with the world within your reach!

6. Agent Provocateur Sapphira Gown

Review

British brand Agent Provocateur has a reputation for breaking from norms to produce truly stunning pieces. Their vampy and unabashed approach to sexiness has often raised eyebrows. Still, no-one could deny the quality of the lingerie and clothes that they produce.

The Sapphira gown is no exception and a perfect example of how Agent Provocateur blends the expected with new, fresh ideas. Designed to resemble a dress rather than a classic dressing gown, this is an item which straddles both worlds.

This gown is made of shimmering striped Lurex in bronze and navy blue and could indeed function as a dress. The plunging neckline and slit in the front emit a provocative air, with lace-trimmed bottom adding a touch of delicacy. The overall result is delightful.

Composition:

100% Polyamide

7. Olivia von Hale Capability Envy Gown

Review

Perhaps gaining inspiration from living in Shanghai for over three years, designer Olivia von Hale returned to London to create the nightwear range that she always longed to see. Her collection inspired by 1920s icons such as Coco Chanel, boost her items with a character, making them look attractive are unique.

This robe is made of the finest silk and has simple elegance in both its form and silhouette. The design is intricate, bold and almost Versace-esque with the gold and navy pattern with its bold, block gold cuffs.

The matching gold nightwear set truly finishes the look, but this robe can stand alone with ease. In fact, if you are a fan of opulent luxury, there are very few robes which will serve you as well as this one.

Composition:

100% Silk

8. Pleasurements Amoralle Sumptuous Lace Robe

Review

Amsterdam-based brand Pleasurements is all about the power and pleasure of sensual underwear. Celebrating alluring female couture, they produce lingerie, nightwear, and lingerie-inspired fashion to die for.

This modern brand found a cult following among the young and fashionable. The Amoralle robe is a perfect example of their work. The soft lace that makes up this robe is a delicate shade of dusty purple that they dub ‘Cappuccino’.

The pattern of the lace gives it texture and movement, as does the lace fringe. Sheer and sleeveless, this robe is nothing like many of the boudoir gowns on the market right now. Nonetheless, it is feminine, delicate, and incredibly sensual.

The lace, in particular, feels lovely against the skin and will give you endless delight. In fact, it would be a challenge to take a twirl in this robe and not feel truly magical.

Composition:

100% Polyamide

9. Rosamosario Nuditá Ricca

Review

Italian luxury brand Rosamosario is being hailed as the new embodiment of Italian artistic talent. Led by founder Carlotta Danti, the brand follows in the footsteps of traditional sartorial Italian ateliers while still producing innovative and forward-thinking designs.

Unlike many brands, Rosamosario is very inclusive in its sizing (just one more reason to love them!). The Nuditá Ricca robe in deep red, finds a perfect balance between sheer and solid, giving it a warm, enchanting look.

Falling just under mid-calf with short, ruffle embellished sleeves and a silk belt, this boudoir gown is the perfect embodiment of feminine sexuality. Both delicate and bold, subtle and vibrant, it not only looks stunning but makes you feel stunning too!

When you’re draped in this boudoir dressing gown, you will delight in its light, ruffled, silky material.

Composition:

100% Silk

10. I.D. Sarrieri Midnight Delights

Review

I.D. Sarrieri’s mission is to champion a return to glamour and promote true femininity. They crave for the wearer of their garments to feel genuinely sexy and empowered. They do this by blurring the lines between lingerie and ready-to-wear fashion with stunning expertise.

Every single piece they produce is unique and designed to be truly special. The Midnight Delights robe is a perfect example of what makes this brand so unique.

Using cascading tulle and Chantilly lace (which is a staple of their designs) this robe is truly majestic. The tulle is so fine that it almost has no colour, and only the black seams and embroidered floral patterns make it appear solid.

The close-fitting body, flowing skirt, and bell sleeves add a touch of delicate femininity to the bold and sensual design to make this robe truly unforgettable.

If this gown were not made of such sheer material, it could easily be a vintage-inspired summer dress. If you wore a simple slip dress underneath, you probably could!

Composition:

51% Polyamide, 32% Viscose, 8% Elastane, 9% Polyester
