Light, beautiful, and well-made!
I'm thinking of gifting friends with this item. It is really beautiful! Just as pictured. The blue dragonflies really look wonderful against the black, like an evening sky! I have bought two items from Novica, and have been very happy with both! This robe is beautifully stitched with real seams, (not a cheap serger) has pockets, and is lighweight for summer, with full, roomy coverage. Highly recommend!!

A True Piece of Art
Everything about this robe (Misty Javanese Forest) is exquisite: the colour is stunning and more intense than in the picture (did not fade a bit in a wash), the design gorgeous, the workmanship impeccable, the fabric very pleasant on the skin and the fit perfect, even for a tall woman like myself. I was so thrilled with this housecoat that I immediately ordered another one from the same artist. Parwati (I believe this is your first name rather than Desak), I found that Parvati in Sanskrit means "of the mountains" and is a goddess of love and power - I am honoured to be wearing your beautiful creation, which exudes these characteristics of your name. And NOVICA, the beautiful packaging together with the handwritten note with a few phrases in Balinese was very touching - like a present from a friend. This was my first purchase from NOVICA and it exceeded my highest expectations. Spreading happiness around the world indeed!

Beautiful and functional
When I took it out of the package I thought it would be too small but the fit is perfect. Lots of summer maxi's I feel are not really suited to every day wear but this one will be great for running to the store or even to work on a summer day. I think the batik is lovely. I really like the neckline. Length is perfect -- not too long so its dragging. Really a lovely, functional, piece of art.
