A robe should not hide. It should be seen. 

Jessica Linklater spent a decade in Paris designing for Lolita Lempicka and Tara Jarmon. Returning to London, she brought with her a respect for craft, shaped by years working alongside ateliers in Paris, Delhi, and beyond.

In India, she discovered Khadi—a fabric that is hand-spun and hand-woven without electricity. Breathable and light, it carries a quality of freedom you feel the moment you put it on. 

Jess launched Robe de Voyage in 2016.

The brand began with a photograph of Lauren Bacall and Humphrey Bogart, eating breakfast together in matching robes during the filming of The African Queen in the Congo, in 1951. They look like they belong right there—effortless, unposed and glamorous without trying. That image became the founding idea behind every piece Robe de Voyage makes: clothes that you reach for, on duty and off, for work, rest or travel.

Years later, life echoed the photograph that started it all. Watching an episode of Killing Eve, Jess spotted actress Fiona Shaw eating breakfast opposite her co-star, wearing a distinctive Robe de Voyage silk robe. Not styled, not requested, Fiona had simply reached for her own robe, and it found its way into the scene. Two breakfasts, decades apart, but the same idea: a robe at breakfast never goes out of style. 

The signature print, Scribble, began as a single continuous brushstroke—painted by hand in Jessica's London home—sunlight rippling on water, caught in one motion. 

Each design is cut in Paris and made by hand in Delhi. Every garment carries something of that journey—and in turn becomes part of yours: memories of home, of travels taken, and mornings that belong to you.
