People are realising they’ve been tying dressing gowns wrong for years & the right way means it’ll never pop open
MANY people like snuggling up in their cosy dressing gowns, particularly in the chilly winter months.
But did you know that you may have been tying your robe wrong for years?
A woman shared how she discovered a new method that prevents you from “busting out” of your robe.
Levi-Mariah uploaded a video saying: “I was today’s years old when I found out how to tie my dressing gown properly.
“Who else know this?”
On her @oneofakindlevi account she showed how she used to wrap the tie fully around her body and tie in a bow at the front.
However, her new method saw her using the belt only through the front of her robe.
She demonstrated putting the belt through the loops at the side but at the front of her dressing gown not around the back.
She was then able to tightly pull the gown shut and fasten in a bow, without the robe popping open.
Levi-Mariah added: “No more robe busting open.
“Who else knew this was the way to do it?
“Now I’ve done it this way I’m never going back.
“My dressing gown has never felt better.”
Her video has divided opinion among dressing gown wearers, who flocked to the comments to give their views.
One said: “Looks more comfortable this way but never knew this.”
Another added: “il try that.”
Many people also pointed out how her new method helped to cinch her waist in a flattering way too.
However, one wrote: “nah will stick to the old way.”
A second agreed: “what a faff.”
