I bought this to see if it would work as a cool shower wrap to tie on in our hot Georgia summer.  It does!  Also works as a skirt over a swim suit, a shawl, a scarf, and even a very light blanket.  The fabric's drape makes for effortless elegance.  The sarong can literally be folded up and put into a 10" x 13" envelope.  Talk about packable!

I am very tall for a woman, and a size 12.  No problem tying it so that it covers me modestly (for a shower wrap).  Check out the "1 World" web site for their plus size sarongs.  I think I'm going to put one on my wish list for uses  when I want more coverage.

Now I'm asking myself why everyone doesn't wear these things all the time.  I can see me as an eccentric old lady with nothing but a wardrobe of colorful sarongs.  Definitely worth $9.99 to try one.
