This dress/gown is like those typical house dresses; the type that my mother wears all the time around the house.  I found this black one, and now I know why my mother always wears dresses like these. Very comfy and yet this dress is still flattering to the figure.  I think the black color makes it look sexier and still be conservatively covered up.  I tried this dress on as soon as it was delivered.  I had intended to only try it on, but ended up just keeping it on...I've become my mother in a more flattering and sexy house dress.
