OLDSHANGHAI Women's Satin Kimono Robe Long - Floral

August 2021: I’m still wearing my original pink robe from Old Shanghai, but I’ve purchased a replacement for next summer. Although the original is still in reasonably good condition, I think this will be its last summer of use. Excellent lifespan - I’ve worn this robe daily and washed it at least weekly about half of every year (all spring & summer & into early fall) since it was purchased in June 2015!And every one I’ve given as a gift has been a big hit because they look great on all body types.EDIT AGAIN, 16 May 2017:After contacting Old Shanghai directly, it seems when I clicked “Buy it Again”, then went to change the color, I was inexplicably shifted to another seller called Tigoof Online, and I inadvertantly ordered from them instead of Old Shanghai. For the better quality robe DO NOT ORDER FROM ANYONE EXCEPT 'OLD SHANGHAI'!After they realized what had happened, Old Shanghai sent a replacement robe free of charge, which is very lovely and to the standard I originally expected. I'm attaching photos to show the difference in the products. First is a side-by-side with Old Shanghai hanging on the right, and you can see even the Old Shanghai colors are softer, more elegant, while the Tigoof Online colors are harsher and cheap looking. Photos 2&3 and then 4&5 show some finishing details of the Tigoof Online vs Old Shanghai robes, and 6&7 are photos of the labels of each brand. I changed my rating back to 5 stars because of the excellent customer service of Old Shanghai.Edit 28 March 2017:I ordered another in black as a gift, and I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED. It is 4 inches shorter, the sleeves are a few inches shorter, and it has no interior ties - so how are you supposed to keep it closed while wearing it? It's marked as an XXXL, and does not have the Old Shanghai label, when ALL the others I've purchased are "one size fits most" and do have their label. Did they run out and go around the corner and buy an XXXL child's robe??? Changing my 5 star rating to a 1 star because of this.I needed it before a planned trip, and of course I can return it, but before replacing it I want to be certain I'm getting the correct robe, and Amazon has been NO help so far.Edit: February 2017:This robe has held up very well, and I continue to be impressed. I've ordered others as gifts and they have always been a hit. My 83 year old mother is the type of person who has always cared about her appearance and always dresses well. I purchased two for her, a long and a short version in different colors, for a recent hospital stay, and she loves them both. Both of my sisters have these now, and also love them.In my original review I mentioned ironing out the packing creases when it was new, and hoping I'd never need to iron it again. Sure enough, nearly two years later that is still the only time I've ironed it. Once those creases were dealt with, its been machine washed and dried (on cold water and gentle cycle) many times, and I've pulled it out of the dryer and it looks great. Easy care, in addition to being beautiful.I wear this every day during spring and summer, and yet for now I see no reason to replace it as it still looks great - in a year or two maybe it will be worn enough. A bargain for sure. :-)June 17, 2015:I LOVE this robe! I was looking for a very light summer robe, and this is just so perfect. I have a son and a stepson who are both grown men and are around all the time. I like to shower and change for bed early in the evening and then relax for the rest of the evening with family. Winter robes are easy but I needed a robe with complete coverage that wouldn't be uncomfortable in summer. This is it.This robe is so pretty; the colors are beautiful. I ordered the pink and it's a very soft, flattering color. This robe is so light I'd describe it as "gossamer", but the fabric isn't sheer - it provides total coverage. It looks like silk, but is EASY CARE!When I received it I washed it in cold water and dried it on low. It still had marks from being folded during shipping so I turned in inside out and ironed it on a medium setting to remove those few creases. Since it held those creases so well, now that I've ironed them out I don't expect to ever need to iron it again.For length, I am 5'6" and it comes to the top of my feet - almost to the floor. I am of normal weight for my height and it fits generously, folds and flows perfectly.I'll be ordering more of these, they're available in so many pretty colors and they are just so beautiful!These would be great gifts, too.

I was pleased with the robe

This robe is beautiful !!! I wear it like a kimono over my pants and top. Makes me feel special !!

LOVE IT. Soft silky and I float about the house in it - cool light and airy but nice when chilly during outdoor summer hot tub as well. I feel pretty in this

Kim + Ono kimonos are so beautifully designed that they are really wearable art. I got the sapphire colored one with pink and lilac flowers and cranes. The satin's reflective qualities make the pink in the flowers of this piece look like deep mauve from one angle, a light blush from another, and yet another shade as you are looking at it straight on. The flowers and birds are outlined in gold and the sheen of the satin also gives the gold a metallic quality.The design, the colors, and the shimmer of the fabric makes this a stunning piece to wear either with a satin slip dress and pearls to go to a party or over casual lounging clothes to stay in or just go walk the dog. I live in Houston where it is semi-tropical and almost never cold enough to wear a sweater or coat, so this kimono is going to be my "go to" cover-up year round. I am soooo happy to add it to my wardrobe.I only gave it a 4 for comfort because satin has a side that isn't as soft on your skin as the side facing outward but the satin, machine printed version, of a Kim + Ono design is an absolute steal for this price! (They also make hand-painted silk versions that are priced over $200.) I was afraid this purchase would be a cheap knock off when I saw this being sold for this price, but the reviews said it had "Kim + Ono" tags, so I crossed my fingers and ordered it. (Amazon allows sellers to sell knock offs but show the real thing, but they do let you return it at no cost and have drop off returns close by.)I am 5'4. The hem just touches the ground with no shoes and bare feet. I may take up the hem an inch or buy a pair of healed or platform sandals to keep it from dragging the ground because I don't want to damage this piece! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, this kimono!!!

Love the robe, but sent it back as it didn't fit.

If you are looking for a lovely lounger, this is it. Light and lovely. Once the temps rise a bit, I will be wearing this as a *robe* outside as I enjoy my morning coffee on our deck or front porch. I bought 2, btw. Both just lovely.

This kimono/robe is fantastic, much better than I expected from Amazon honestly. Super super soft, feel luxurious. Love the length. I washed before using and came out great! I like it way more than the VS satin robes I’ve had for years that fall apart quickly.

The kimono is beautiful, however I took one star out because it could have been better finished for the price.

I'm 5' 3" and the sleeves are the perfect length - basically full length for the added coverage/warmth but not too long that they get in the way. It is a fairly long robe overall, goes almost to the floor on me but once tied it's perfect.Colour is nice.It's fairly good quality but not the most high end.

This is my boyfriend's account, but I'm the girl who got this for her birthday and I LOVE IT!!!! Its so perfect! It even has pockets!! Absolutely beautiful. Thank you!!!

I bought this for my daughter's 38th birthday. It arrived at her house earlier than expected and just two days before her birthday, today. She is a lady who has everything, but does not always pamper herself. I checked online for the best buy and quality for money and decided on this. It is beautiful...we Skyped today... and she loves it. My daughters are tall, 5'10" each. This fit her to the knees which is perfect. Many other products show the kimono or Hapi coat on a 4' model and then you get something way too short. This is perfect. The colour and pattern are beautiful. Highly recommended by me and my daughter for a feel beautiful and happy wrap!

The colour is amazing and the graphics crisp. The fabric is a nice weight and the seams are finished. I am 5ft. 6in. and it fits beautifully.
