Bride reading wedding invitation in floral robe

It’s probably been a minute since you’ve matched with the MVP missies in your life, right? Yet another thing that COVID has stolen away from us. But as we move forward into spring and summer wedding season, with vaccine availability revving up across the country 🙌, we’re hoping that it means we’ll be seeing tie-the-knot teams (i.e. a bride and her bridesmaids) twinning hard again! After all, it’s one of those things that turns a best day ever vibe up X10000 – just like superheroes throwing on their capes before they go out and do their thing, when a bride and her maids strut into the bridal suite in beautiful robes, they’ve assumed their roles, dressed for the part and ready to rock. Are you getting married some time soon? If so, Fung Textile is where you’ll want to go to take those getting ready photos from “Uh yeah, fun” to “Oh, yes, fire.”

Reasons you’ll want those robes.

Because it feels like a sleepover party throwback. 

Nothing like taking a nostalgic trip down memory lane and embracing a comfy uniform that’s straight out of a Limited Too playbook. We all were there, we all lived for the opportunities to slip on matching satin pjs and pretend we were Spice Girls, members of S Club 7, or anyone remotely as cool as Lisa ‘Left Eye’ Lopes. Well, in 2021, it’s still a girl-group dress up, it’s just under more adult circumstances. Which means mimosas, Bloody Marys, and a game of MASH that actually ends up with you married to the guy or girl you hoped you’d circle by the end of it.

Because the outfits are a lot more inclusive and flattering. 

I mean, were the ensems back then anything you’d ever want to extend an offer to your mom or little sis to wear? Nope, if you weren’t a tween, then you’d best not be seen tbh! Nowadays, though, we welcome times where we can do the mama-and-me thing and we make sure that our baby cousins can join in on the fun and not look like a 20 or 30-something or like pipsqueaks who we asked solely to please our Aunts. All of Fung Textile’s robes are age-appropriate, flattering, and size-inclusive, because they’re in the business of protecting female friendships 🙂

Because they bring in a thread of consistency, all while letting each girl shine. 

Have you seen the pics of those robes in a row, though?? It’s just wedding-day-delightful, from the floral to the fringe, pastel shades to the bell sleeves. And not that you want to diminish any of your girls’ own sparkle by asking them to put on a robe – as a great ‘equalizer’ – you just want to ensure your photos aren’t a hodgepodge of hoodies and yoga pants or a look that’s more fitting for a boudoir shoot green room. It’s a clean and gorgeous aesthetic, but no one just ‘blends in.’

Because as the bride, you need an entourage that’s on your level. 

It’s absolutely your day and, of course, no one would fault you for wanting to be the center of attention in your photos – but when your crew looks as 😍as you do, everyone ends up hitting a new level of photogenicity. Plus, we’d be telling a TOTAL lie if we said that a stunningly-dressed clique wouldn’t naturally hype up their headliner (aka, the bride-to-be herself). Pretty girls taking selfies and popping bottles in the background = just the right amount of festive to pump up their friend #MrsXComeOverHereandSmile 📸.

And lastly, if it wasn’t clear already, these robes personify ‘friendship, but make it fashion.’ So, if you’re ready to swap out some pandemic-fueled athleisure with getting-ready-gold wardrobing, then you’ll want to visit one of Fung Textile’s retailers (Blossom & Syrup or Totally Brides) or go through their own website to place a bulk order.
