I have a couple from Logo that I like (crushed velvet - for winter) but they're shorter than most and I like that. If one isn't careful, dusters can look ver much like bath robes, IMO.

@PINKdogWOOD I like the look but they won't work for me. I've 5 foot 1 and I simply don't find the look flattering.

Frankly, I think they look silly.  I've never seen anybody except QVC models wear them.  They're not heavy enough for warmth, so what purpose do they serve?  A completely unnecessary garment.

 

No thanks.


@Kachina624   I agree.  I just don't care for the look.  Just not my style...I live in a college town and I can't picture the students wearing them either.  They love their denim.  đꤗ

If you are looking for something shorter in length.....try a KIMONO from the bathing suit coverup rack...

Maybe it depends on the area of the country in which we all live.  I see women of all ages wearing them when I'm out shopping, at lunch with friends, and see many women wearing them at church.  Most wear them with skinny jeans/ankle jeans/leggings like the photo @Bri369 posted.  Younger girls/women wear them with shorts. I see all lengths of dusters when I'm out and about.  They're just a fun accessory piece.

I wear "daisy dukes" and a tank around the house in the summer....and I cover up with a kimono if I have to make a quick run to Walmart or the grocery store...

I am too short to wear them, but I don't really like them.  

Every time I see someone wearing one on QVC, I think they look like Bea Arthur on the Golden Girls.

 

I never see anyone wearing them out in public.

Love them

 

Only 5'3" but they make me look taller.

 

I have many.

@kaydee50 

 

I wear them anywhere.  Church, work, shopping....I am always cold so a cardi is a must whether it be a long one or shorter.

 

I really like wearing them over a Skinny tee, with a hip slung belt....and then the duster.

These aren't really duster cardigans. 

 

These are more like Caftans.
