Two Dressing Gowns Inspired by the Iconic Style of Sherlock Holmes
Sherlock Holmes has been a cultural icon for over a century, captivating audiences with his sharp intellect, unorthodox methods, and impeccable sense of style. In modern adaptations, two portrayals stand out: Benedict Cumberbatch’s cerebral, high-functioning detective in BBC’s Sherlock and Robert Downey Jr.’s bohemian, rough-and-tumble version in Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes films.

While these portrayals differ, both share one element that embodies the character’s mysterious charm—an iconic dressing gown.
At Baturina Homewear, we’ve created two robes inspired by these distinct versions of Holmes. Each piece brings out the personality and unique qualities of the detectives, allowing fans to channel the timeless elegance of the world’s greatest detective.
The BBC Sherlock Robe: Sleek and Sophisticated
Benedict Cumberbatch’s Sherlock is a study in contrasts. Cold and detached in moments, yet capable of incredible focus and warmth when it comes to solving mysteries, his character’s wardrobe in the BBC series reflects this balance. Our BBC Sherlock-inspired robe captures that sophistication and cool elegance.
Men’s Navy Blue Velvet Robe with White Piping and Polka Dot Lining
$290.66 excl. Sales TaxThis lightweight robe is crafted from luxurious navy velvet with a crinkled texture. The deep, rich blue has an understated sheen, creating a refined yet modern look. The white contrast piping around the edges adds a crisp, clean touch, echoing the sleek lines of Sherlock’s iconic coat.
Inside, we’ve lined the robe with smooth navy polka-dot viscose jacquard. The lining adds a subtle layer of complexity to the design, just like Cumberbatch’s Holmes—elegant and simple on the outside, with depth and intrigue beneath the surface. Not only does the viscose jacquard feel amazing against the skin, but it also enhances the luxurious appeal of the robe, making it perfect for lounging in style.
The Guy Ritchie Sherlock Holmes Robe: Bohemian Luxury
Robert Downey Jr.’s Sherlock in Guy Ritchie’s films is quite different from the BBC version. This Holmes is gritty, unconventional, and more rough around the edges—but still retains a charm and depth that’s hard to ignore. Our Guy Ritchie Sherlock Holmes-inspired robe embraces this bohemian spirit, combining old-world elegance with a contemporary twist.
This dressing gown is a tribute to the vintage-inspired wardrobe of Downey Jr.’s Holmes. The robe features an iridescent jacquard with a gray base and a maroon antique floral design. What sets this fabric apart is its subtle emerald green shimmer, which catches the light in different ways, adding an element of mystery and flair—perfect for a detective who’s always one step ahead.
The rich texture and complexity of the pattern speak to Holmes’ unconventional style, while the intricate weaving is a nod to his attention to detail. It’s a robe that feels like it belongs in a luxurious Victorian study, yet it carries a modern edge that makes it timeless.
Inside, the robe is lined with a warm, burnt-orange cotton that contrasts beautifully with the cooler tones of the exterior fabric. This not only adds a pop of color but also ensures that the robe feels as good as it looks. The cotton lining is soft and breathable, making it an ideal choice for cooler months or cozying up on a chilly evening. Just like Downey Jr.’s Holmes, this robe is both stylish and practical, offering comfort without sacrificing personality.
