Other reviews mentioned how heavy it is. I was thinking that meant that it was a bit "thicker" fabric than it turned out to be. In fact, it does weigh a lot even though the fabric is very thin.  I am 5'4" tall and weight 148 pounds. I am typically a 10/12 size in clothes.  Other robes that I have owned are size "large". Based on the reviews, I ordered the XL. The fit is very strange. When I pull the robe to the front enough to get it to fully cover the front of my legs, it is pulls very, very snuggly across my  buttocks. Because it is very thin fabric, this is just a bit more revealing than I care for when running out to get the morning paper from the front yard. When wrapped like this, it also pulls the side seams with the pockets way to the front, positioning them over my hip bones. This robe is being returned.
