What (probably children's, probably old) book contains a reference to a 'chiffon robe'?) (lemmy.world)

Weirdly specific question I know. Hoping it stirs someone's memory.

You might mean "chifforobe," a type of wardrobe, which appears a number of times in "To Kill a Mockingbird" (spelled "chiffarobe.")

Haha, no way that totally could be it. Especially as I kept thinking it was in The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. Funny how memories do be like that
