Beautiful Gown but not cut right at the arm/pit/top bust area
The Pros:*It truly is 100% cotton, medium weight. Plenty of fabric in the front which aids with the see through factor.*Beautiful embroidery and ruffled detail.* High quality for this type of garment; in my opinion, a tad overpriced; but if you are a fan of cotton; you won't mind paying a bit more.*This is great to lounge around inside or outside, cuddle with knees under the gown or sleep in (fantastic for hot flashes!).*Washes well and the color doesn't bleed (I ordered pink)*Has 2 side pockets which I absolutely love.*The bust area is somewhat "reinforced" meaning it's almost double the weight which is intended to block the transparency of the nipples and areola.The Cons:*The pattern is simply not cut right. It might be good for an asian woman as they tend to have less breast size and a narrow back. I am 5'4" and 38b-c boob size and it is uncomfortably tight in the armpit/bust area.*When I talked about "being reinforced" as intended to cover the nipples and areola in the pros, is because it's a nice feature for additional coverage without an overall, the sad part is that it's actually not achieved; as the armpit runs super high making the bust line higher than what it would normally be, thus the reinforced area falls above the actual boob and not on it. This makes it a good fit for women with narrow back, sagging boobs or simply low or small breasts if you want a comfortable fit as is meant to be. This is the reason why I gave it 3 stars.*Price is a bit high in my opinion; when comparing overall value: quality, design, price and delivery time. Considering the quarantine due to the COVID19, it took about 10 days to arrive.*This brand will fall in my opinion; third when compared to "The 1 for U" and "Alexander de la Rossa" also sold here at Amazon; and strictly due to the faulty pattern.I don't usually like to compare products to a different maker, only because I feel there is always something that makes items a tad different than others and they should all be rated according to their features and not based on other brands. The reason I did this on this item and on another gown from La Cera I ordered at the same time; was simply to note that it would be number one on my list if the pattern problem was not an issue. I felt very frustrated that both gowns did not fit right on me. Nevertheless; I kept one to give away (to a smaller framed person which I know will simply love this) and I'm hopeful to be able to loose some weight in order to enjoy this one.Hopefully the maker will reassess this and post it on the product description when a the pattern issue is corrected so we know they have paid attention to women of more volume.I live in Miami; so this weight is perfect, whereas the other 2 brands I mentioned; one is much, much thicker and the other one much, much thinner. I must say; equally beautiful; but the embroidery on this gown and in general of La Cera's gowns are far more intricate and beautiful than those of the other makers mentioned herein.Please, please correct this issue. I would definitely buy more of your product and I'm positive other women would buy more of it too. Some of them have mentioned this issue as well.

I altered mine and it’s still fabulous
I LOVE 💕 this!!! Buttery soft cotton, airy, and modest which is great for me, I’m terribly shy. I dyed the nightgown so I wouldn’t be walking around in a see through dress. The whole point of a long dress is to hide your problem parts, not advertise them. I bought a few sizes too big because most of what I’m buying runs tighter than I like. I think I got a l or xl, and I really should have gotten a medium. It’s just me looking at it and I love 💗 it! I highly recommend getting one or three from this seller. I’m ordering more this week.

So Comfortable!
I love everything about this nightgown. The fabric is a very nice cotton and the style is beautiful. It fits very well and it has enough material to not cling, be comfortable, be figure flattering without being to flouncy. It's thin enough to be cool but it isn't see-through because of the generous amount of fabric. I also like the length - not too short and not too long. I am 5'7" and it hits me just below the knee. I love it and would definitely recommend it to others.

Simply beautiful
Loved loved it! The color and the details! It just was too snug under the arm pits so I’m having to send it back! But I’ve already ordered a bigger size and cannot wait to receive it!!! It’s absolutely exactly what I wanted ! UPDATE just received the new one and it’s gorgeous! I’d recommend going up 1 size as I’m a med- lg and I go for comfort! It’s just beautiful and lovely company to deal with!

Didn't shrink at all
I never know what size to order anymore. I've lost a lot of weight, so I usually order too large because in my head, I'm bigger than what I really am. My current cotton gowns are 1X, fit fine, just very old and worn. But I couldn't help myself, ordered this in a 3 X. It was way too big. SO I washed and dried it on hot. Didn't shrink. Oh, I will still use it, it's just too big, my bad. It is very well made. Love pockets. If you have large arms, this is for you. I got it in blue, and it is light weight but see through enough that a robe is a must. Came back to order 1X, sold out Sheesh

As good as expected but the color is off
I'm a fan of this line of nightgowns - they have pockets! - so went ahead and purchased. It's lovely and soft but I almost returned it because the color of the actual garment is different from the color in the image.It goes without saying that no one should expect it to be exactly the same color , which will be rendered differently on different computer screens, but this color appears quite different to me, leaning closer to a pale green than the blue in the image.

Very Pretty
Can't see in pics but has tiny little shiny beads at yoke, very pretty. Is Comfortable but 4 stars due to I wish it had buttons at the front yoke. Otherwise I am very happy with the fact it has pockets I like to keep a ponytail tie in one.

Runs very small through bust area ❗️Buyer beware ❗️
Hip area ok- but bust area runs very small - & strap area seemed too long so didn’t hang correctly. Also was way too long to be comfortable-at least for me. I thought about shorting it but w the detailing at hem area it wasn’t worth it for me - not at the price that they are. And they are way too sheer to walk around without a bathrobe or duster on— so I just gave up & returned the 2 that I purchased. The pastel colors were nice & very pretty detailing on bodice area.

Very nice comfortable night gown
As expected, this is a very nice and comfortable night gown. Excellent material, comfy cotton. Nicely packed and arrived ahead of schedule. Would buy again in a heartbeat.

Very cheap fabric for the price
I returned this item. The fabric was so cheap and the embroidery too. Not worth the price.
