I absolutely love this robe. It's sufficiently long for anyone between 5'0" and 5'10", and it provides good coverage without being stifling. I wear this in the morning while getting ready, and I don't get too hot while drying and heat styling my hair. Unless you live in a positively Arctic climate, this robe would provide enough warmth when layered over pajamas year-round. In the summer, I imagine it would be nice and breezy over a light set of pajamas or nightgown. The pattern is very pretty without being too overwhelming. I'm very happy with this robe!
