ANGELA hand printed cotton kimono robe

Dressing gown gifts for her: hand printed robes she will actually wear

By Home of Hammam

A hand printed cotton kimono robe is a dressing gown gift she will actually wear, because it works at home on a slow morning and on holiday as a cover up. Choose the print, check whether she needs the fits to UK 18 or the UK 20+ size, and add a matching towel if you want it to feel like a proper present. If you cannot decide, a gift card lets her choose.

What makes a dressing gown gift worth giving

The best dressing gown gifts are the ones that leave the wardrobe. A heavy robe that lives on a hook for most of the year is easy to forget. A lighter kimono style robe gets worn on more days, after a shower, over pyjamas, on a beach or beside a pool.

Home of Hammam robes are made from Turkish towel fabric in 100% organic cotton, and every one is printed by hand by artisans in Denizli, Türkiye. Our product pages describe them as soft and highly absorbent, and made to be worn at home or on the beach.

Getting the size right

Size is the part people worry about most with a gift. Most of our styles come in two fits. The "fits to UK 18" robe suits approximately UK sizes 6 to 18, and the "UK 20+" robe suits approximately UK sizes 20 and over. If you are unsure, email hello@homeofhammam.co.uk and we will help you choose. There is more on this in our FAQ.

Choosing a print

If you know her taste, pick the print to match. If you do not, these are good places to start.

  • The ANGELA robe comes in both fits, with an option to add the matching towel.
  • The ADDIE robe has an evil eye print. The evil eye is a symbol that many people give as a good luck charm, which makes it a natural gift print.
  • The TARA robe and LYRA robe are worth a look too, so you can compare the prints side by side.

You can see every print together in the kimono robe collection. Browse all our evil eye robes.

Full length or mini

Most styles come as a full length robe and as a mini. Full length robes are mostly £99 to £109, and minis start from £79. The length is shown on each product page. The ERICA Mini, for example, measures 100 cm from shoulder to drop. A mini is a good choice for someone who wants a robe for the beach or for warm weather.

Make it a set

A robe and a towel make a complete gift. The ANGELA robe is offered as a bundle with a towel at £126 in both sizes, and you can browse the full range of Home of Hammam towels. The ANGELA towel measures 90 by 180 cm and is described on its page as organic cotton, hand made and hand printed.

When you cannot decide

A Home of Hammam gift card is available in £50, £90, £100 and £150, and is valid for 12 months from the date of purchase. It is a sensible choice if you are not sure of her size or her favourite print. You can see them in our gift cards collection.

Christmas and Mother's Day

Orders to the UK are sent by Royal Mail and usually arrive within 1 to 3 working days of dispatch. Some robes in our Christmas collection are pre order items, which are dispatched as soon as they arrive with us, and the expected dispatch date is shown on the product page. Check the date before you order a pre order item as a gift. Mothering Sunday in 2027 is on Sunday 7 March, so a robe bought now will not be stuck in a gift cupboard for long. Our shipping policy has the full delivery details.

If it is not quite right

You can return an item within 14 days of delivery. It needs to be unworn, unwashed and in its original condition and packaging, and the customer pays return postage. Contact hello@homeofhammam.co.uk with your order number to start a return. If you are buying for someone else, it helps to keep the order number handy so she can do this herself.

How she should look after it

Hand printed textiles fade gently, and our Product Care page says to expect it. Wash only when necessary, use a cool wash at 30°C or below with non bio detergent, hang dry, and iron on a low heat from the inside if you need to. It is worth passing this on with the gift.
