I’ve adored these Samantha Chang robes since the very first day I saw them. There’s something so opulent and indulgent about silk anyway. It’s the perfect fiber – warm in winter, cool in summer, soft, light, breathable. And the fact that the print on the robes is hand-painted makes them all the more luxurious.
