"Light, beautiful, and well-made!"
Im 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!!

"Beautiful robe - exactly like photos"
Just as described, really nice colors and soft to the touch. The size and length are exactly as described, it looks the same or better than the photos. High quality fabric and impeccable stitching. Arrived sooner than I was expecting, packed in a nice little fabric case that matches the robe. I highly recommend, great experience all around. Thank-you to the artisan for creating something so beautiful.

"Exquisite robe"
I ordered this robe because blue dragonflies are a special memory for me from my son who crossed over several years ago. The robe is beautiful, so well made and fits me perfectly. I will treasure it for many years to come. Thank you.

"Beautiful robe!"
This is my second order from this artisan in as many months, because these robes are so beautiful & I couldnt resist getting another! This one does not disappoint: the colours & design are gorgeous, dramatic & perfect for late summer. The fabric is slightly crisper & less soft than the first one I bought, but I expect it will soften up with wearing & washing. I love floating around the house in these robes, & look forward to putting them on after a stressful work day, as they make me instantly relax.

"Wear this robe almost every eve. in warmer months"
A very nicely made, soft and flowing garment, has a feel almost like silk; and is cool enough for spring and summers; yet also gives warmth in transition seasons. It is a bit long for me, so I have to be careful going up and down stairs, being sure to lift the hem with one hand. I am average height, 5ft, 5 inches.

"Love my new robe"
Very pretty robe with blue, purple and green. Feels very soft and light weight when wearing it. My husband thinks it looks great too. It is generously sized but does not feel like too much fabric. It washes well - I use delicate, cold water and let air dry. I am 5 9” tall so it does not come all the way to my ankles but it is longer than most at pprox 52” from center neck to hem. Thank you Desak Nyoman Parwati for a beautiful robe.

"The most beautiful clothing item I own"
WOW! This robe is completely perfect in every way. Did I mention it has pockets!?! This is honestly the most beautiful clothing item of any kind that I have ever owned. So much attention to detail and care went into this piece. The colors and Batik are more beautiful than the photos. The photos dont do the piece justice, there is a beautiful ethereal quality to the colors. Green like light shining on leaves in a dense forest, the teal like clear lake water seen from a distance. It feels so special and natural. This is a work of art and couldnt be more perfect, almost like it was made for me! Thank you so much, I really couldnt be happier!
Best Uses
- Wearing constantly!
- Relaxing
- Self care
- In the forest
