Dressing Gown Ready to Step Out

"Our dressing gowns are not merely pieces to be worn at home. They represent what I call 'Indoor Black Tie': an attire that ennobles your morning coffee, yet is equally at home following you into the night.

Originally, 18th-century gentlemen wore what was known as a Banyan—a dressing gown inspired by Persian and Indian silks. It was a true status symbol: slipped on to receive guests at home or to be immortalized in a portrait. 

At Cinabre, we advocate for the liberation of the dressing gown. Ours tend to prefer hotel bars, late nights that bleed into early mornings, and the nonchalance of a belt left untied. Wear our dressing gown to a party, and you will lose count of the compliments.

Whether in wool gabardine, baby camel, Toile de Jouy, or velvet, each of our creations is lined with high-grade satin. Our linings, crafted from natural fibers, are breathable and pair as effortlessly with your pajamas as it does with a tuxedo shirt.

Crafted to endure, this is a piece designed to carry you through the nights and through the years."
