My “Super Plush” Bathroom Gem Made It onto Oprah’s Favorite Things (It’s the Perfect Luxe Gift!)

I’m going to go out on a limb and say Oprah Winfrey and I probably don’t have a ton in common (she’s an iconic talk show host … and a billionaire). Nevertheless, I eagerly await the release of her Favorite Things list every holiday season. It’s a great source of gifting inspo, and if I’m being honest, I usually end up finding a little treat for myself, too. 

While reading through this year’s edition of the list, I was surprised to discover that Oprah and I actually have something in common after all: Brooklinen’s Super-Plush Robe. Turns out, she’s a big fan of the ultrasoft robe (that’s hanging in my bathroom while I type this!), saying it’s “one of life’s underrated luxuries.” This is a claim I’ll proudly cosign, and as she suggests in her list, I think the Super-Plush Robe would make the perfect holiday gift. I’ll explain why. 

The Super-Plush Robe is made of the same 100% Turkish cotton as Brooklinen’s editor-loved, Super-Plush bath towels, so you can experience their soft, fluffy pile long after you’ve left the shower. And despite the robe’s lofty texture, it’s quite lightweight at 380 grams per square meter. This means it’s rich enough to cozy up in during the colder months, but light enough to wear year-round without overheating — constant comfort. 

The Super-Plush looks like a fancy robe you’d find at a five-star hotel (and be more than tempted to stash in your suitcase). It features a foldover collar and lapel, two cozy pockets, and thick, folded cuffs. It’s also available in 15 colors, so there’s a look for every lounger, whether you’re partial to spa-like white or the new vertical stripes that just dropped for the holidays. 

As someone well-versed in the art of lounging, I’ve had my fair share of robes over the years, and the Super-Plush is the best one I’ve had yet. I can’t stress enough just how comfortable it is (it’s essentially replaced all my other at-home loungewear pieces!). The plush cotton feels so dreamy against my skin, and what’s really impressive is that its luxe texture hasn’t diminished after numerous washes. 

The material also absorbs any moisture left over after a shower, so I can throw it on damp skin if I need to get ready in a hurry. I haven’t noticed any loose fibers sticking to my skin, either, which I can’t say about other robes I’ve tried. 

I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention all the fun print options, too. You could always get your giftee a solid, neutral color, but the new vertical stripe and checkerboard styles are a playful way to appeal to your recipient’s personality. I personally adore my Striped Aloe robe. The light green looks so serene. 

Whether you’re shopping for a self-care aficionado or a friend that’s tricky to shop for, the Super-Plush Robe will make them feel warm and fuzzy right out of the box. Shop yours while it’s 15% off!
