The colors are beautiful, rich and lasting through wash after wash.  The soft silky feel and the nice cut and drape make it a great nightgown.  My Aunt has been unwell and needed extra nightgowns, she has been so pleased with the two I bought her she doesn't like to wear anything else!  She has the blue and rose pink ones.  I plan to purchase more for her.  They are also cut long enough that she can get in and out of her wheelchair modestly, and not so long that they are in the way.
