I was looking for a dress that was comfortable enough to wear around the house, but didn't look like a bathrobe, so I could also wear it out and about. This dress is perfect. It's thick enough so you can't see through it, but at the same time it's not stiff. It hangs really nicely. Doesn't feel cheap. The pockets are deeper than expected and that was a plus. It would be great for a summer vacation without showing wrinkles.Definitely you could wear it around the house or casual/out. For reference,I’m 5’8”, 210-215lbs and bought the XXL which fit great!
