Yes, I recommend this
Loved this for a dressing gown. Loved the quality and style, very classy and exspensive looking. I got it in the sale at a great price.

Marcelina January 2017
No, I don't recommend this
I ordered this on line (in the sale) as our local store doesn't stock the Alexa range or anything remotely Bohemian and I thought I'd give it a go. Very disappointing. The material was too thick and felt like a heavy summer dressing gown. I contemplated keeping it to wear as such but even with its sale price, it was too expensive. Sadly it was not the final flourish to a outfit I expected so I had to return it.

Lovely statement piece, everybody comments on its style, material, colour and quality. I'm only 5'3 and it was too long for me so i just shortened it with iron-on hem tape. Perfect for this silky material. The arm length was perfect. Only criticism was there was no inside waist fastening, so I just attached some ribbon lengths to the inside. Overall very happy with my purchase.

Very pleased with this. Not entirely sure when I will wear it as too 'slippery' for a dressing gown and a bit 'loud' for everyday. Think it would be a perfect cover up for holidays by a pool though and just nice to have it sitting in my wardrobe.

Beautiful Kimono
Average rating: 5 out of 5
PurpleViolet January 2017
Yes, I recommend this
I was instantly attracted to this beautiful kimono: loved the oriental print, the fact that it's an Alexa Chung item and last but not least, the fact that it was an unbelievable bargain in the sales. And I was not disappointed: it is quite long specially if like me you are rather short, but I do wear longer length garments. It is a perfect spring/summer cover up outdoors or indoors, and when I wear it, I feel like a sophisticated lady from the 1930's. Never feel you are too old to try more bohemian styles!

Lovely drapey fabric ,but the kimono is very long, and because the fabric is so silky, it is too difficult to shorten and I will be returning it.

No, I don't recommend this
I'll admit I was more interested in this as a potential summer kimono dressing gown, but nonetheless intrigued to see how it would play out Alexa style. So, Alexa style no! A bit too flamboyant, out there and (sadly) young for me I think. I just couldn't see myself wearing this to go out. You may feel differently. As a summer kimono dressing gown I love the fabric design. However it is quite silky, not a bad thing, but it has no internal ties to keep it in place. With only the sash to tie it, it is simply not going to stay wrapped around. Also I found the side splits rather too long. A lot of leg showing. Size wise I bought the large. I am a 14 top, 16 bottom and 5'7". I like my gowns to wrap right round, which this did but it felt a little too big on top and it was possibly just a fraction too long on me for comfortable walking around though that might have been to do with the slippy tie too. Hope this helps you to decide.

Yes, I recommend this
I was not confident this would work for me. I am 61 and 5'5". However it is wonderful. I plan to wear it with a velvet maxi skirt and black lace top also from M&S. It is beautiful quality and so cool for parties and times you want to make a statement. I will work it all the season and I suspect still be wearing in 10 years time. Thank you M&S more of this creative stuff please.

No, I don't recommend this
If you are 5.10 and above it would fit....but as I am 5.4 it almost touches the ground. Also it looks like a dressing gown...I would certainly not feel comfortable wearing it outdoors. Overall very disappointed and it is being returned.
