Give Your Loved One the Gift Celebrities Crave
If you’re looking
for something to wrap your loved one in luxury with
on Christmas morning, an innovative Colorado clothing
manufacturer offers an unlikely alternative.
Until now, the common robe wasn’t likely to
evoke images of indescribable delight and sex appeal.
But now you can give the gift of the same sumptuously
soft robes that have seduced the likes of George Clooney,
Jennifer Lopez and Leonardo DiCaprio. Colorado’s
Clothing’s best-selling microchenille robe wins
praise from stars, spa-goers and everyday consumers
like Erin Autrey of Denver.
“My husband gave me a
Colorado Clothing robe for my birthday and I just
love it,” Autrey says. "The robe is the
perfect weight. It feels so light, you barely know
you’re wearing it. And the cashmere-like feel
is so soft against my skin it really makes me feel
pampered.”
Colorado Clothing microchenille
robes come in unisex sizes and a variety of colors
for appeal to both men and women.
Softer still is Colorado Clothing’s
newest version of the robe made with two familiar
yet unusual ingredients. Soy and bamboo fibers woven
into the microchenille result in a robe that still
feels like cashmere but has the benefits of being
extremely durable, naturally anti-microbial and easy
to care for.
Another advantage of the robe
is that soy and bamboo are very earth-friendly renewable
resources. For textile production, only organic soy
can be used, explains Shannon Myers, Colorado Clothing’s
director of merchandising and product development.
Using the dregs from the processing of soybeans for
food production, the resulting soy protein flakes
are spun into fiber married with bamboo fibers to
create a proprietary blend, called SoyBu, which is
added into the microchenille.
In addition to celebrities,
the robe is in high demand in some of this country’s
toniest resort spas such as the Hotel Del Coronado,
Ritz-Carlton Laguna Nigel and the St. Regis in Aspen.
The robe will also be available in time for holiday
shopping at FrontRunners and Fred Segal stores as
well as the Early Winters mail-order catalog. The
unisex robe in two sizes comes in a choice of five
colors: Wisteria, Alabaster, Guava, Petal and Daiquiri.
