Models for teens
Teenagers, no less than adults, like to wrap themselves up in a cozy robe, but it must meet a number of requirements. First, to be comfortable, practical and, preferably, made of natural fabric. Secondly, to meet the requirements of the teenager about the appearance of clothing.

Fashionable styles
In the field of homewear this season, a number of fashion trends can be traced, one of which is retro. Robes made of printed fabric in a small flower with a trapeze silhouette are more popular than ever. Also in trend is a reference to the East - robes made of natural or artificial silk, embroidered with dragons and having wide sleeves.
Not boring styles are in fashion: asymmetry, a torn cut, a dropped shoulder line, even a dressing gown, where the back hem is longer than the front. Loose, slip-on robes and double-sided robes, the color of which change in two movements, are also in trend this season.
Length
In the matter of the length of the robe, each woman acts at her own discretion. If the season allows and the family does not mind, you can choose the provocative option "mini", which, of course, goes only to ladies with long slender legs.
A knee-length dressing gown is a classic option, appropriate for both relaxation and active pastime - cleaning, cooking, fiddling with children.
If the desire to wrap yourself up in a soft and comfortable robe from head to toe prevails, then you need to choose the "maxi" model. However, such a dressing gown cannot be called uncomfortable - the floors in any case form a cutout that will not constrain either when walking or when trying to sit in a chair.
Colors
The collections of this season are dominated by rich, deep colors, even when it comes to home clothes.A dressing gown made in shades of dark blue, purple or deep red will look great, black will look rich and mysterious.
At the same time, the dressing gown does not have to have the most trendy color, the main thing is that it matches the color type of its owner.
Both blondes and brunettes are equally suitable for blue and pink, regardless of the intensity of the shade, a calm beige, nutty, golden color. Young ladies with copper hair color will go with shades of green. Robes with prints look good: animalistic and geometric. Variants that match the overall color scheme of the house, living room or bedroom look advantageous.
Robe fabric
A classic is a knitted robe, which is suitable for any season. The knitwear looks pretty, it is a wearable and practical material that stretches easily and washes well. Another favorite among robe fabrics is the makher.
These cozy options can be of different thicknesses and densities, but the hygroscopicity, hypoallergenicity and high wear resistance of this fiber remain unchanged. Velor is a kind of terry, but it is a more solid and expensive fabric. The velor robe looks rich, it is soft and delicate, it is pleasant to walk in it.
Dressing gowns made of cotton fabrics are good for the summer or if it is hot at home. Calico, calico and cambric dressing gowns do not irritate the skin, breathe well, and absorb moisture.
Silk has the same properties, which at the same time looks many times more aesthetically pleasing. A silk robe pleasantly cools the skin and gives even a homely look a certain bohemianness.
Robes made of brocade, cambric, chiffon or satin look great, which translate this piece of clothing from simple and slightly casual into a real haute couture product.
Bathrobes, which contain bamboo fiber, serve for a long time and absorb unpleasant odors. Bamboo is a natural antiseptic and wearing such clothes is not only pleasant, but also healthy. Microcotton also has similar properties, so a robe made of such material is good for active pastime.
A chic option for cold weather is a cashmere robe. Thin, but warm and soft, cashmere warms up wonderfully and creates a cozy feeling. For young ladies who are often cold, robes made of wool are also suitable - for example, merino, camel, angora.
There are even fur robes that will be appreciated by the owners of country houses.
Sizes of women's robes
When purchasing a bathrobe, it is important to choose the right size. This is especially important with thin models, because a terry dressing gown can be taken one size larger, but a silk one should emphasize the figure. It is especially important not to miss the size when buying a thing without trying it on. Here you may need to take measurements of the figure.
Russian women's sizes 42, 44, 46 and 48-50 correspond to European XS, S, M and L. As a rule, men's sizes 50-52 (XL), 52-54 (2XL) and 54-56 (3XL) follow. The “onesize” feature means that the item will fit any lady in sizes 42-48.
The size of the women's dressing gown will also depend on the manufacturer. If the manufacturer is China or Japan, it is better to take the item one size larger than usual. To calculate the optimal size, you need to measure the most protruding points of the figure: chest and hips, for young ladies with a non-standard figure it is better to take a larger option if the choice is between two.
Stylish trends
The set looks stylish, which has something in common with the robe in color or fabric. It can be a dress, as well as trousers with a top or tunic. Having put on such a set, the robe does not even need to be fastened. There are options where the robe is in tandem with nightwear - pajamas, light chemise or nightgown.
One of the fashion trends is shoes that are matched to the robe. As a rule, these are slippers, flat, platform or even heels. There are more sporty options - rag sneakers or jazz shoes, which go well with a sporty robe.
Extraordinary personalities can take a look at vintage robes, which are very trendy this season. These are luxurious models, often made of quilted fabrics, imitating the home clothes of great people - from empresses to stars.
Popular brands

Producing countries
Which manufacturer to give preference to is a matter of taste and a financial issue.
Budget models can be purchased from Chinese brands, inexpensive knitted robes of very high quality are also sewn in Russia (factories in Ivanovo are especially worth noting), Belarus, and Poland. It is better to buy silk models of Japanese or Turkish production, while in Italy they sew luxurious robes from velor, wool and cashmere.
How to choose?
Be sure to run your hand over the fabric with pressure - no lint should remain on the palm of your hand.
Separately, you need to pay attention to the seams of the robe - they must be soundly processed, threads cannot stick out of them - this is also evidence of the poor quality of the product. Self-respecting firms always sew a loop for a hook to the robe, this small detail must also be done neatly.
