Silk vs. Satin robes - why choose a 100% silk robe?
First things first, let's tackle a common question that often arises about whether to buy a silk or satin dressing gown. A 100% silk dressing gown is undoubtedly an investment as a real silk robe tends to have a higher price tag compared to robes made from artificial and synthetic materials or blends. This is because of the high quality mulberry silk fabric being used to make real silk robes.
Here at The Silk Collection we design and create 100% silk pieces as we truly believe that this high quality and natural material is what our customers should use as part of their daily routine, and especially for special occasions like weddings. In the Bridal industry in particular, there are many 'fake silk' or artificial satin alternatives, which often come at a lower price point, however they do not provide the benefits that natural silk will provide for your skin. They also do not have the same luxurious and timeless feel that a real silk robe will have. By investing in a real silk robe rather than artificial silk fabrics that do not have the same longevity, you are also supporting slow fashion as our pieces are timeless and made to last for a lifetime.
Our Silk robes for women are made from the highest quality 100% mulberry silk fabric with a luxury thickness of 22 momme. This means that the silk will feel especially luxurious against your skin and provide ultimate comfort.
Why Silk Robes Are Perfect Gifts for a Bride
1. The perfect accessory for the wedding morning
A silk robe is the perfect piece of clothing for a bride to wear while getting ready for her wedding to feel pampered at the start of the day. A silk dressing gown is both practical and functional, as it can be worn in the morning while the Bride has her hair and makeup done to add a touch of luxury to the wedding morning, and it can easily slip off without disturbing her hair and makeup when it's time to put on the wedding dress. It will also provide a beautiful addition to any pre-wedding photos.
Add matching silk scrunchies or our best-selling silk headband to accompany the Bride's silk robe for the ultimate timeless look as she is getting ready on the wedding morning.
2. Silk provides ultimate comfort
Mulberry silk fabric is a 100% natural and breathable fabric, making it perfect for weddings in any season. Silk is soft and smooth against the skin, and the lightweight fabric allows for easy movement. Silk's natural thermo-regulating properties also means that it will help to keep a Bride comfortable whatever the season: whether it is helping to keep a Bride cool on a hot summer wedding day, or provide comfort during a cooler winter wedding morning.
3. Silk benefits for skin and hair
Wearing a silk dressing gown is not only a luxurious experience, but mulberry silk also has a range of benefits for skin, hair and the quality of your sleep.
Mulberry silk's natural properties help to keep skin hydrated, as it is significantly less absorbent than other materials like cotton. This means that it absorbs less moisture from your skin and hair compared to other materials, to help keep both your skin and hair healthy and hydrated. Mulberry silk is also naturally hypoallergenic which means that it is suitable for all skin types including sensitive skin.
