I have always disliked housecoats. Full disclosure: I live in rural Maine in an off-the-grid (for real) stone house on a small mountain with only wood heat. It’s cold but not when I’m next to the wood stove. When I was working and had to leave before the house was really warm, I would put an oversized, cozy, peppermint pink fleece robe over my clothes. It did the trick. I’ve had that robe for at least two decades. It was a gift from my parents who knew my situation and wanted to add a little comfort to my life. I love the robe. Though I don’t think it’s that attractive, I love the color. It’s also funny - a bonus - and warm. Short of having anything else, my down jacket and a winter hat also work well. Fleece robe verses housecoat? I know what I would pick.
I love the idea of bringing the housecoat back to life. I recently discovered the joy of working in a warm bathrobe with my regular wfh clothes underneath. I want that feeling, but stylish.
