The robe de style describes a style of dress popular in the 1920s as an alternative to the straight-cut chemise dress. The style was characterised by its full skirts. The bodice could be fitted, or straight-cut in the chemise manner, with a dropped waist, but it was the full skirt that denoted the robe de style.
