Robes
Robes are the layer that goes over everything else. Sheer mesh long robes, marabou trimmed glam robes, iridescent kimonos and printed wraps, in short and full lengths, cut to be seen rather than to keep you warm.

A lingerie robe is not a bathrobe. It is cut light and made of things that fall open: mesh, chiffon, feather trim and soft wovens. It ties at the waist instead of wrapping closed, and it is built to show what is underneath rather than cover it. Warmth is not the job and never was.
This is the piece that makes everything else easier to wear. A set you feel too exposed in on its own works with something over it, and a robe is what carries you from the door to the bed, or from getting ready to being photographed. It is also the least demanding thing in lingerie: it goes over what you already own, it does not have to fit anywhere in particular, and it is the only piece that improves an outfit you have already decided on.
Two practical things. Marabou is feather down sewn along the cuffs and the hem, and a new one sheds a little: shake it out over a bin before you wear it and it settles down after that. And the tie decides everything. A thin self-tie belt works loose over an evening, a wide sash stays where you put it, and an open kimono cut has no tie at all because it is meant to hang.
Grouped by fabric and length, with the rest of each one next door.
If it is going over something you already own: check the tie, not the size. A wide sash holds all evening and a thin self-tie belt does not. That single detail is the difference between a robe you keep closed and one you keep retying.
On sizing: this is the most forgiving thing in lingerie. There is no cup, no waistband and nothing that has to land in a specific place. One size genuinely covers a wide range here, which is not true anywhere else on the site.
If you want the feathers: marabou, and expect a little shed at first. Shake a new one out over a bin and it settles. What is left behind on the first wear is normal and it stops.
If it is for photographs: long and sheer. Full length mesh moves when you do and catches light through the fabric, which is the whole reason it looks the way it does on camera. A short robe reads as an outfit instead of as a moment.
If you are buying it for somebody else: a robe needs no measurements at all. Nothing has to fit, so there is nothing to guess wrong, and it still arrives looking like an occasion. It is the safest thing in lingerie to buy for a person whose sizes you do not know.
On care: hand wash cold, hang to dry, keep feathers out of water. Mesh and chiffon lose their drape in a machine, and marabou clumps permanently once it gets soaked. Spot clean around the trim instead. See all lingerie for the rest of the range.
