Another fabric wich isnt that difficult to work with would be Moiré Antique,
its usually made of polyester these days, comes in many yummy shades. In one
of my catalogues there is a darkblue robe francaise in watered silk, very
nice and it would also have the right thickness and stiffnes for this kind
of robe.
But actually the cotton version i suggested you, looks very nice also. Its
an italian robe, used for summer wear.

Check out bridal fabrics.
They aren't all white and ivory these days, and some of the patterns are
surprizingly historical (in look anyway).
Plus, bridal no longer means just expensive silk :o)
