Chakir Turkish Linens Lightweight Quick-Dry Waffle Knit Bathrobe - Spa & Bridesmaid Kimono Short Robe for Women | Perfect for Bath, Poolside, Bridal Party & Relaxation at Home

I wish it was softer. It’s a little rough.I was so excited when I found this robe! I just absolutely adore the color - I got it in fuchsia.I debated on the sizing because the pictures show it as being short but then some reviewers posted photos where it appeared longer, so I felt hopeful. I read the sizing chart, checked our reviewer photos and in the end decided to order my true size – S/M. I am 5’6” / 133. I am SO disappointed. Instead of being S/M, it fits like a S/M PETITE robe. The length and sleeves are just too short – length is 34” and sleeves are 12”, so it just looks a bit smallish on me. The robe sizing is true to the size chart, but I do feel the measurements should be marked as PETITE. I should have ordered the “One Size” instead. The fit is not awful, but it does not provide the comfort and coverage that I normally like. I think it would be perfect on a shorter person – or if you prefer a shorter robe.I do love the happy color and will wear this, but probably only at home not when I might be around others (when I'd want more coverage). The photos don't make it look too bad, but once I start moving around, it feels short.This is a very reasonably priced robe. It’s a nice, fairly soft waffle weave. Since it’s polyester blend, I imagine it will launder well without shrinking or bleeding too much color.Fits true to size, I’m 5’4” so the regular size was the perfect length and size for me. The material is soft and thick, dries the body fairly quickly but its almost too thick for me at the moment given its still summer and a bit hot. The neck goes up too high and feels uncomfortable because its stiff and I’m not used to a waffle texture on my body. If you are someone who is sensitive to different or rough textures, then you may want to pass on this one because you will feel it.Stiff when you unbox it. I suggest washing it first. The one size is really small. I assumed it accommodated one size fits all to include men and figured I would be good. Wrong. It nearly fits around me and is quite short... and I'm 5'3 ! I'm not sure about the more specific sizes, but I would recommend ordering a size or two up. Sad because if it softens up with a wash or two, it was exactly what I was looking for. I'd say it's worth the gamble if you size up.This is a nice lightweight bathrobe. Reminds me of one the spa might use. Love the magenta pink color. Comes past the knee on me. Has large pockets on the front. Would be good for travel, or gift for mom.What a great and practical robe with pockets!! Perfect for us plus-size ladies too! I previously only owned a fleece floral robe that my kids had gotten me for Christmas years ago which wasn't really practical at all unless I was freezing in winter and definitely not sexy whatsoever- it was floral and went down to my ankles! And it didn't even feel good or work very well drying off or anything. When I saw this one, I loved the waffle texture, spa-like look, and the navy color (and all the colors really) - they made it very hard to choose just one! When I told my husband that I had ordered a new robe, he didn't understand why I needed another. But when he came home from work and I was wearing it, he sure didn't complain. It's such a great weight for all year/in Arkansas anyway where it doesn't get too cold. It's a great length. The arms feel a little weird at first at 3/4 length on me and I'm 5'6". I might prefer for them to be full-length. But I love this thing!! Great for right out of the shower or if you don't prefer wearing a lot of clothes but need to answer the door or tell your kids goodnight. So many great colors to choose from and a great price. It feels very well-made and I think I should get years out of it and anticipate it only getting softer and softer. I would 10/10 recommend it. I have a big Motorola phone but it fits great in the pockets- you can keep up with anything. A modern lady's housecoat maybe? I would love this as a very practical bridesmaid or any gift. Very usable!! 10/10 recommend :)I am happy to have the opportunity to review this item and offer honest feedback.
