This nightgown has so many wonderful qualities. They are true to size and color... believe me, I own every color! They are a nice length. The picture shows right above the knee... I must be a little short. My gowns hit me right below the knee, and I am 5'3". The extra ruched or embroidered flower piece right around the chest area makes it easy to wear this comfortably in front of others (close family that is!). I am rather large chested and don't always like to walk around with a bra on all the time. This ruching allows for enough hiding to not be obscenely exposed. If standing if front of a bright light, they can be a bit see through. Mind you, I don't wear it with just anyone around, but I don't feel uncomfortable if caught at the front door when the UPS man drops off a box. The sleeveless aspect makes sleeping at night comfortable with no sleeves getting wrapped tightly around my arms. They have a great feel, and my husband loves them. By no means are they sleek, slenderizing, form fitting, or made to make someone look sexy... they just have a nice feel and are a classy sleeper. side note: the pink champagne and azure mist start looking a little worn quicker than the rest... the colors are just a little light to hold up to many washings/wearings.
