Bridal tradition: a bridal robe

The most popular bridesmaid gifts are undoubtedly robes from Wedding Robes Australia. Below you can find detail about Wedding Robes

  • Spa Robes: Spa robes are the undisputed champions of wedding parties. Made of soft cotton, they are oversized and comfortable — and one size typically fits all.
  • Wrap Robes: Wrap robes are a bit more tailored than spa robes, and they are typically made of a thinner, lighter material like polyester. You may find robes that bill themselves as made of silk, but that’s rarely the case. Just make sure you’re not getting robes made of rayon or acetate, as they require dry cleaning and they also wrinkle easily and are the best Lace Bridal Robe Australia.
  • Kimono Robes: Kimono robes have enjoyed a turn in the spotlight in recent years. They split the difference nicely between spa robes and wrap robes, offering the full sleeves you get with spa robes but also a more tailored fit through the body as with wrap robes.

LENGTH

No one wants a robe that is so long that it drags along the ground, and no one wants a robe that barely covers her backside. But, when in doubt, err on the side of lengthier rather than shorter. Remember also that robes shorten up when cinched with a belt. If they are too short, you’ll find that your bridesmaids wear stretchy pants or some other coverage under the robe — which looks strange in pictures.

So, make sure your robes are at least 32 inches as measured from the base of the neck to the bottom hem. A size small is 32-33 inches long on average when measured this way, so anything shorter is going to be problematic — especially as you get into larger sizes.

COLOR

It’s best to stay as neutral as possible when choosing robe colors, looking for colors that work within your overall wedding palette but that aren’t too unusual or off-the-wall for long-term use. And you’re not limited to just one color — some brides choose one color or print for bridesmaids, another for house party members, another for the maid and/or matron of honor, and yet another for mothers of the bride and groom.

WHAT MAKES BRIDE AND BRIDESMAID ROBES SO POPULAR?

There’s a reason why robes are such a popular bridesmaid gift leading up to weddings. Actually, there are several reasons why. Wedding day robes are:

  • Comfortable: There’s something about a robe that makes everyone feel comfortable and relaxed, and that’s exactly how you and your bridesmaids should feel on the big day.
  • Flattering: Robes can be incredibly flattering, too, especially spa robes. And it’s nice to be wearing something flattering when a professional photographer is on hand snapping pictures.
  • Convenient: You can wear your robe while getting your hair and makeup done, and you can easily slip your robe off without worrying about it messing up any of the hair and makeup artistry. It can be easily worn on Underbust Corset Australia.
