although this photo looks drab etc ...on it looks like silk and rather elegant. With the right large silver accessories it will look smashing ..Flowy. comfortable and can be dressed down or dressed up. it is 54 inches long from neckline to hem and measures from underthearm in front to the other underarm 30" so the same in the back. and it has POCKETS!!!! I have added a photo of me in it and I am a size 12/14 I am 5 5 and weigh 160....so it seems as though it woud fit someone bigger or a tall thinner person too...looks better on than off...
