I've got some more things up that don't fit anymore. Couple of these are a wrench to let go, but I'd rather replace them with things that fit better. These are things I've tailored for myself.

Green wool dressing gown, about a 40-42 chest though the buttons can be moved out easily. The pattern was for 42-44 chest and I moved the buttons in. Satin peak lapels.

Gray trousers, wool blend, high waisted. 36" waist with some to be let out.

Brown plus fours. Button fly, high fishtail back with a cinch strap. 37" waist, could be let out a bit as well.

SAdly I think that dressing gown is just a size too small for me, even with the buttons moved. Is that the Evadress pattern?

Yes, it's the EvaDress pattern. It's a shame the pattern isn't multi size, I'd make a new one for myself. As it is I bought an early '50s dressing gown pattern with a db front and peak and shawl lapels to replace it. I need to find appropriate fabric, though.

I'll definitely be picking that pattern up, then! It's a hard thing to find a dressing gown I like these days... at least, not one I can afford (shockingly, the last new one I saw that I really fancied was in Jermyn Street..... and cost GBP1300. Who can afford to spend that on a dressing gown? Not me!).
