FAQs

What is the primary material of this dressing gown?

The Ted Baker Clara Silk Dressing Gown is made from 100% silk.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to standard UK women's dress sizing. The gown is available in UK sizes 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, and 20.

Can I machine wash this silk dressing gown?

Machine washing is not recommended as it can damage the delicate silk fibers. Hand washing or dry cleaning is preferred.

Is the wrap front secure?

Yes, the wrap front is designed to be adjusted at the waist with a tie for a secure and personalized fit.

Will this dressing gown be too hot for summer?

Silk is a breathable natural fiber, but its insulating properties might make it feel warm in very high temperatures. It is generally comfortable year-round but ideal for transitional weather or cooler evenings.

How should I store my silk dressing gown?

It's best to hang it on a padded hanger to maintain its shape and prevent creases, ideally in a breathable garment bag.

What is the length of the dressing gown?

The description indicates it has a fluid, full-length drape.

Troubleshooting

Gown feels stiff after washing

This can sometimes happen with silk. Try ironing it on a low heat setting with a pressing cloth, or consider a professional dry clean to restore its softness.

Visible wrinkles or creases

Hang the gown in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or iron on a low heat setting on the reverse side with a pressing cloth. Avoid direct heat.

Gown doesn't feel as soft as before

Ensure you are using a silk-specific detergent if hand washing and that you are not using fabric softeners, which can damage silk fibers. Professional dry cleaning can often rejuvenate the fabric.

Care Instructions:

  • Dry Clean Recommended: For best results and to maintain the silk's integrity, professional dry cleaning is advised.
  • Hand Wash (Optional): If hand washing, use cool water and a mild silk-specific detergent. Gently swish the garment, do not wring or rub. Rinse thoroughly with cool water.
  • Drying: Lay flat on a clean towel away from direct sunlight and heat. Do not tumble dry.
  • Ironing: Use the lowest heat setting ('Silk' mode) on your iron, preferably on the reverse side, or use a pressing cloth. Avoid spraying water directly onto the silk.
  • Storage: Hang on a padded hanger to prevent creasing and store in a breathable garment bag.
