We all have one, it is probably the most well worn and perhaps the oldest garment of clothing that is hanging in our closet, the style has remained consistent and has changed little since its introduction to the western world in the mid 17th Century. However, dressing gowns are starting a new wave of fashion frenzy. Not only are dressing gowns bringing warmth, style and comfort to your lounging attire- they are also inspiring a fabulous outerwear look that is emerging as one of the hottest trend this season.It is official... dressing gowns are hot property! The reliable, timeless dressing gown that we all know and love seems to be generating a new wave of excitement and hysteria amongst fashionistas. It appears that dressing gowns are inspiring designers this season from Aquascutum, MaxMara and Chloe to name only a few. During the latest New York fashion week, Jessica Biel made a big impression. The tabloids went into a frenzy, not because Jessica arrived fashionably late to the Oscar De La Renta show, but because Jessica looked stunning. Her coat of choice grabbed the headlines in US and UK tabloids who claimed that whilst it might easily have been mistaken for a dressing gown, the wrap around coat oozed elegance and sophistication. This look is a style that you can expect to see much more of in the coming months.This winter season, in their Autumn/Winter 2010 collections, nearly every fashion house included coats that cut the shape of dressing gowns. The result is a timeless, effortless, elegant look.For more reasonably priced alternatives there are plenty of different styles to chose form on the high street so keep your eyes peeled for a dressing gown inspired coat in a store near you. Alternatively, you could try wearing your favourite belt on the outside of your favourite coat for a unique, yet cutting edge look that will be bang on trend this season!
