OMG, this is so much nicer than I expected it would be!! The polyester actually feels like lightweight silk, and the colors are vivid. I am 5'10", around 200 lbs and normally wear a size XL - and I am very happy with the fit (it's still loose & billowy on my body).  The length hits the top of my feet, with the sides being a bit longer. This garment is perfect for lounging in very hot weather, or would be a great cover-up over a bathing suit.  The fabric is thin & lightweight but it is not see-through, so I would feel comfortable wearing this as loungewear in front of people, or slipping into it after a bath/shower (instead of a robe).
