At first I was disappointed, thinking that they were to be "sheers" instead of the solid cotton-type fabric that they are.  However I have grown to love them, they are sweet and fun with all of the butterfly-type attachments.  I'm thinking that they might take a dye well if one wanted a different colour!  Mine hang about 2 inches from the floor, possibly not 84 inches long? Anyway, I am very happy with them.
