Wool Mens Robe, Red and black checks (S,M,L,XL)
***THERE IS A WAIT ON THIS GOWN BEFORE I POST (Earliest dispatch is May 31st). I will need time to do all the hand sewing of hems. I have been sewing around the clock to replenish supplies, but these gowns take time. Thank you for your patience.
The wool is a classic combination of black and cobalt blue. It is 80% wool and 20% nylon and has a really soft hand feel. It's mid weight, ideal if there is some heating in the home. The fabric is new, made in Korea from New Zealand wool, ex-designer fabric.
The lining is 100% cotton sateen shirting in black. The gown is fully lined including the back of the neck so the wool does not touch you. Sleeves can also be worn folded up or not. If extra length is required, there is an extra 6cm in the sleeve hem for alteration.
If you are confused or are unable to work out your size, please email me and I will help you. My sizes are cut very generously, so you will be in a smaller size than you normally are. These measurements are of the garment laying flat on the table and with buttons done up, NOT of the person wearing it.
They are all limited edition and bespoke pieces. I do not have any of this fabric left and cannot make to order. Proudly 100% Australian made by me.
*The robe is fully lined in 100% cotton sateen shirting fabric.
*Even the back of the neck is lined so the wool does not touch your skin.
*There are two hidden pockets in the side seams.
*All buttons are hand dyed vintage buttons from the 1940's-50's.
*The sleeve hems and bottom hem are both hand sewn so that if you need to alter the length of either, this can be done very easily if you are handy, or by your alterationist.
*The entire length of the front edges of the robe and around the collar is top stitched by hand, similar to a mens hand made suit, so that the collar edges do not roll and always lay flat.
*Measurements: Click on the link below. Measurements are of the garment laying flat on the table and with buttons done up, NOT of the person wearing it. Contact me with questions if you are unsure.
*The overlap in the front of the gown is 6" or 15cm on all gowns.
*Shaping at the waist can be achieved with the tie belt and the buttons are there so there so the gown does not gape open.
SHIPPING:
In Australia, the gowns will be shipped Express Post with signature so that they arrive safely.
