One-of-a-kind hooded terry cloth swim coverup handmade from reclaimed vintage towels. Designed for lake days, surf checks, sauna nights, and changing under after a swim.
Every Dolly Patchwork Surf Robe is completely one-of-a-kind, handmade from colorful reclaimed towels and patched together like a wearable quilt. Inspired by generations of lake life, sauna culture, and Dolly Parton’s iconic Coat of Many Colors, no two are ever the same.
The idea for these started with Teddy’s Finnish family cabin, a tiny lakeside sauna that’s been in the family since the 1950s.
“After a hot sauna and a jump in the lake, we’d sit around chatting in terry coverups my great-grandmother made.”
These coverups are a modern adaptation of that original 1950s silhouette passed down through generations. Redesigned for boat days, river hangs, paddle boarding, surf trips, and post-swim parking lot changes.
Made with a relaxed boxy fit, oversized hood, and full front zip, they’re roomy enough to comfortably change under while doubling as a towel and wearable coverup. Throw one over your swimsuit after the water, toss it in your beach bag, or wear it straight to the lakefront bar.
Part robe, part towel, part family tradition. Every frock carries a little history with it.
