“You can’t be glamorous all the time!”…Said no Bombshell ever! A true Bombshell is effortlessly glamorous whether it’s the turn of a collar or a pop of lipstick.

However, whilst we love our dresses and the confidence that we feel the moment we step into our Bombshell; there are those times when one requires something a little more comfortable whilst still retaining the glamour and style. That’s precisely when the Bombshell Robe steals it’s style moment! Whilst we love looking fabulous in our Confident or Grace dress, robes are the perfect choice for keeping things effortlessly sleek at home. Looking to entertain or relax in style, a Robe is the perfect outfit.

From Mae West to Marilyn Monroe; robes were a firm fashion favourite of the starlets of Hollywood’s Golden Age. They provided them with a go-to wardrobe staple that gave them the style expected of a silver-screen siren, whilst allowing for comfort and ease in-between takes during filming. Indeed they featured heavily in recent Netflix hit “Hollywood;” where characters would lavishly lounge looking regal in their robes.

There’s a definite clear and defined nod towards the housecoats of the 1950s; when women would change into something just to wear around the house but still keep an element of formality and fabulousness.

One mustn’t dismiss or see a robe as a dressing gown. Whilst the humble dressing gown provides the cosiness of bed as we eat breakfast and get ready for the day ahead; a dazzling robe provides us with style and comfort and can be worn all day; and even dressed up for visiting guests! Indeed when Bombshell Founder Katya Wildman met burlesque beauty and Hollywood star Dita Von Teese after her sensational show at The London Palladium; the stylish star had opted for a stunning Jenny Packham sequin robe in a dark red to greet her fans.

Proving that robes are the perfect midpoint between the comfort of home loungewear and the glamour of a show-stopping dress.
