Lovely Chemise
I love the style and cut of the Raspberry Fields Chemise (M). It has a more modest feel to it than some other lingerie. The floral lace gives it a somewhat vintage feel. It's quite stretchy and comfortable and smooths out my hip area. It's well made, but a little more maintenance than I like since it needs to be hand washed and hung rather than put in a washing machine. Overall, I am very happy with this piece.

Pros
Made well/durable, stretchy, comfortable
Cons
Handwash
I normally would not order lingerie on the internet because I like to see it and feel it in real life so I can be sure that it will fit well. I broke that rule when I saw the image of this one and gave it a shot.
The Raspberry Fields Chemise from the Spring/Summer line is a pretty piece that has a vintage feel. I chose it in a size medium just to play it safe. My measurements are 34 bust, 29 waist, 38 hip. My height is 5'3" and I weigh about 130 pounds. The medium fits me nicely. The only thing I have to complain about it that I wish my ta-tas were a little more bodacious so I could fill out the bust more. One neat thing about buying this piece that I noticed on the tag upon arrival is that Coquette donates a percentage or their proceeds to breast cancer research.
We're working with a few different materials on this chemise. It has a floral print lace that lies over lycra which has a lot of stretch to it. The gathered 'raspberry' sides are microfiber. It also features a lace-through ribbon throughout with a bow in the center of the bust. If there's a lot of movement while wearing this the ribbon can pop through some of the holes creating inconsistency, so the ribbon pops through an area more than it does in others, but it can very easily be adjusted back in place. There's enough stretch to it that I can slip it on over my head or put it on from the bottom up. The cups are a triangle shape and provides no support. I'm a B-cup, so it's not a huge deal, but if you have a larger cup size, a strapless bra may be necessary if you need or want lift or support. It's halter style, so it has straps that tie along the neck. It fits and feels very similar to a bathing suit. The garter snaps seem to be made of plastic. They work exactly as they're supposed to. Everything on this seems to be surged well as I had no loose ends, tears or frays when I received it. The materials are opaque.
Here's some specs:
From the top of the cup to the bottom, it's 26 inches unstretched.
Across the bust is 14 inches unstretched.
Across the area under the bust is 12 inches unstretched.
Across the hip area is 17 inches unstretched.
The triangle of the cup measures 7.25 x 7.5 x 8. While the bottom part is 8 inches, it can stretch all the way to 12 inches.
The halter straps are 16 inches in length.
The garters hang 4 inches from the chemise and they lay about 4.5 inches above my knee.
This is a simple piece so it can easily be traveled with without having to store it properly.

Experience
The tag says to avoid washer and dryer. Hand washing or spot cleaning is recommended, as well as laying flat or hanging to dry. It can be stored in the clear plastic package it came in or hung. I keep mine folded in a drawer.
I was worried about this accentuating unflattering areas but it really just smooths everything out. I got this primarily to wear for a photoshoot as long as it fit well and I'm glad that it does. I don't normally wear clothing of this color or any color besides black for that matter, but I loved the ecru floral lace, which is what gives it the vintage feel. I would definitely try another piece by Coquette.
