I've purchased multiple robes from Novica. This one is the only one where it fits me perfectly as a 5'3" lady. The belt loops sit right at my natural waist and pockets are in the perfect location. This robe is also shorter than the others I've ordered - this one hits me just below the calf. The sleeves are not too long, which makes it convenient for me to wear while washing dishes and doing other things. Beautiful colors.
There are not too many garments available to an 83 year old woman that would truly lift her spirits. The robe speaks to me of traditional Japanese design as do the colors. I see that there was a great deal of thought expressed in the placement of the design in the cloth so that it would be shown to the best advantage in the style of the robe. The fabric is a perfect choice, rather than cotton for this elegant robe! I am grateful that Novica is nurturing these wonderful artists because such uniqueness is not to be found elsewhere!
The coasters are unusual and the batik design is beautiful! They fit the bottom of a medium glass tumbler. Only suggestion I have is to make it in a slightly bigger size as well.
