So, who here has on or wears one?

I have bee looking around, and have noticed the Derek Rose models, do people know of any other good makers? Anyone care to share their experiences of owning one?

the closest ive ever gotten to a silk dressing gown, or any sort of gown, is a caftan, which i totally rocked with an imported fez lol #goodtimes

but since you are in the market, heres the first link from google which im sure you've already seen:
http://www.us.thehouseofsilk.com/sho...gown_1529.html

hope it helps and best of luck on your quest!

Yes, I have seen those, but I was looking more towards to the Hermes or T&A end of the market, I would have some reservations about the quality at those sorts of prices, but the quilting is a nice detail.

Derek Rose offering, though unlined, I was hoping to get something quilted and with a lining.

Ideally, something in paisley, more like this one, worn by Noel Coward

Also, link to the Hermes gown if you would be so kind?

Am I the only person who thinks the concept of a silk dressing gown is out-of-this-world ******* ridiculous. No shots, natch.

I had this made for myself. Would you buy this if I sold it for $250?
