FLORAL AFFAIR ROBE

I bought this for getting ready on my wedding morning and the silk charmeuse feels cool and heavy in the best way. The button closure keeps it from slipping open, which I didn't expect to care about until I was juggling a curling iron.

The hand-sewn silk flowers along the collar are what sold me — each one is slightly different, which you can't tell from the photos. The charmeuse has real weight to it, not that thin slippery stuff, and the button closure keeps it from gaping. It's become the first thing I reach for after a shower.

I wore this over a silk slip for my anniversary dinner and my husband kept asking where I found it. The button closure keeps it from slipping open, which is exactly what I wanted. The silk charmeuse feels cool and heavy in the best way.
