I'm not one to wear a "nightgown", it's a t-shirt and shorts or in the warmer months, nada. This is my very first nightgown, although I don't consider it a traditional nightgown, it's more like a light summer dress. I have slept in it, but use it more as a wear around the house summery dress. It is comfortable, soft, not too sheer, I love the length, it's long enough to be modest (I don't mind the neighbors seeing me in this) but it's not so long as to be a problem walking around, especially up and down stairs where a longer dress/skirt could cause me to trip.
I LOVE how this feels, it's so soft, and it fits me well. Normally these clothes that are made in Asian countries for the American audience tend to run small, I think they are starting to get the idea that their sizes were way off. I normally wear an XL or 1X size, I chose to get the 2X size and honestly it's a tiny bit loose, I could have gone with the XL and it would have fit. I wear a 38DD bra so I'm not small upstairs, this fits me just fine, as I said I could have probably gone with the XL and been happy.
I bought the white, I'm going to get the yellow and maybe the blue or red.
