Cotton velvet is the epitome of luxury. That’s why it’s no surprise that velvet robes are the most sought-after pieces in our shop. Let’s take a closer look at the fabric: what is cotton velvet?
Cotton velvet is a type of velvet fabric that is made primarily from cotton fibers. Velvet is a luxurious textile known for its soft, plush feel and its distinctive texture. Cotton velvet combines the desirable characteristics of both cotton and velvet, resulting in a fabric that is both comfortable and elegant.
Key characteristics of cotton velvet:
- Cotton velvet is composed of cotton fibers, which are natural plant-based fibers known for their breathability, softness, and comfort.
- Like all velvet fabrics, cotton velvet has a dense pile. The pile refers to the soft, raised surface of the fabric that gives it its distinctive texture. The pile of cotton velvet is created by weaving two layers of fabric together and then cutting the top layer to create the pile.
- Cotton velvet can be dyed in a wide range of colors, and it retains color well. The fabric’s rich texture often enhances the depth and richness of the colors.
- Cotton velvet is warm and heavy, making it a perfect choice for cold temperatures.
How much does a velvet robe weigh?
Customers often ask us, what is the heaviest robe? Of course, it is velvet! A size Medium weighs around 3.5 lbs or 2.5 kg, making it a perfect choice even for cold temperatures.
What is a dressing gown used for?
Historically, a robe has been worn in cigar lounges and was known as the iconic short smoking jacket. And before central heating was available, robes were meant to keep warm around the house. Some believe that you must live in a mansion (or castle) to justify wearing a dressing gown, but luckily that is not mandatory. A comfortable robe seamlessly fits into your everyday activities. Whether you’re sipping coffee in the morning, catch some fresh air on the balcony of your apartment, or respond to emails late at night, a cozy robe makes life much richer. This informal type of garment is a unique addition to your wardrobe and is designed for your privacy, convenience, and well-being.

The term “smoking jacket” is often associated with the Victorian and Edwardian eras when smoking tobacco was a popular social activity among gentlemen. “Dressing gown” is more general and associated with various lounging and relaxing activities around the house.
From tobacco smoking robe to symbol of sophistication
The smoking jacket has been associated with a sense of sophistication, leisure, and opulence. It has appeared in literature, films, and television shows, often worn by suave and debonair characters. These portrayals have contributed to the mystique and allure of the smoking jacket. The smoking jacket has been worn by iconic figures in entertainment and pop culture, further adding to its popularity. For example, Hugh Hefner, the founder of Playboy magazine, was often seen wearing a red smoking jacket, contributing to its association with luxury and a glamorous lifestyle.
