I am 5'1" and weigh 100lbs...it goes to my ankles and well drag on the floor if I bend over so it could have been about 2" to 3" shorter and still would have loved it. It is a very cozy and plush robe and that was what I wanted.
I am not sure how it washes yet and hope I can update once I do wash it. It could fall apart or shed...?
