My husband was so excited for his new smoking jacket I got him for Christmas. Great quality and it’s lovely. The only thing is, one of the sleeves is sewn poorly and the fabric is billowy on one side.... See more

About Bown of London

Written by the company

At Bown of London, we believe that luxury is about more than just the products we offer—it's about the experience. For nearly 40 years, we have been dedicated to providing the finest luxury bathrobes, dressing gowns, and loungewear. While our products may not be for everyone, we take pride in our reputation for excellence, as evidenced by our outstanding ratings on Trustpilot. Our customers trust us for our commitment to high-quality craftsmanship and fair business practices. If you're seeking quality over mere affordability, you've come to the right place.

What Makes Us Special
Luxury, to us, is not only about the materials we use but also the experience we provide. That's why we go above and beyond to offer personalised options—whether it’s adding your initials, a special message, or creating bespoke custom-made shoes. These unique touches make each item special, whether you're treating yourself or gifting to someone else. Each of our products is handcrafted with the utmost care, using only the finest materials. We focus on comfort, style, and durability, ensuring that your purchase will last for years to come. When you choose Bown of London, you join a global community of individuals who value personal style, impeccable design, and the highest quality craftsmanship.

Our Legacy
For many years, Bown of London operated exclusively in Great Britain. However, in recent years, we have expanded our reach to Europe, the USA, and beyond, allowing customers worldwide to experience the luxury of our dressing gowns, smoking jackets, custom shoes, and pajamas—often with next-day delivery. We are proud of our reputation as the Rolls Royce of Robes and the choice of celebrities & aristocrats. You may be wondering about the origin of our name, "Bown of London." It traces back to our founder, Mr. Alan Bown, a successful businessman with a passion for British luxury. Having been unable to find a bathrobe that met his exacting standards, Mr. Bown decided to create his own brand. And so, Bown of London was born. Many of the designs we offer today were created by Mr. Bown himself, and we continue to honor his legacy with every item we produce.
Bown of London quality will be remembered long after the price is forgotten.

Sizing

Like a lot of garment makers, Bown assume everybody is 6’ + with arms to match so even in a small or medium size you still get a dressing gown too long in the arms and in length of gown. Height should be considered not just chest measurement. However, well made and nice materials.

I belived the negative reviews even though the positive outnumbered these.

Why I believed them and they were verified buyers.

The had unique case by case issues that not all purchases were.

But since buying the item and looking it over and also looking at the negative reviews, I saw that I did not have those same issues. So all in all I got mailed a great jacket. No tears or over sewn lines for the fabric.

I am good and happy.

I didn’t know I wanted one until a few weeks ago. But it took a few weeks of researching letting it sit settle in.

I asked of course my boss if I could get it, she said no I took a few more weeks, but I finally came around and pulled the trigger, but I also bought her one also to appease her bought a robe bath towel.

All in all it was a good purchase good receipt. It came in its white bag satin bag pretty neat. I washed hers. Hers was good. I’m overlooking mine how to wash it right now. I’m wearing it but when it comes out to washing it, I will review what I need to do to wash it properly.

My summer weight robe is perfect

My summer weight robe is perfect! It is as beautiful as the picture. The cotton fabric is soft and will give me lots of wear. The construction is high quality. I love it! Delivered very quickly

Made in China for that price?

At the price and with a name like …of London, I expected something much better made. The quality was unacceptable. I could buy this kind of Made in China pyjama on Amazon for a fifth of the price. I gave the pyjama to the salvation army.

Love my Bespoke Summer Blazer.

I just got my Bown of London Summer Blazer.
Wow!, it is every bit as fantastic as it appears on their website. A finely crafted quality classic Boating Blazer. You'd be hard pressed to find a comparison anywhere in the world, and for a very reasonable cost. Bown also delivers on first rate customer service and fast delivery as promised...
of course they do, they're a legacy British Company.

Hi
I am so sorry to read this review. I have checked on the shipping and the robe was shipped on time. It was send via UPS Ground which would usually take around 4 to 5 days to where you live. I can see it took a bit longer and will investigate why this happened.
