Chapel? More like Cathedral!
For a piece that was so haphazardly packaged, I was surprised by the quality. It does look mass manufactured, but for a piece like that, it fits well and looks good. Like most pieces from EF though, to get a perfect fit you need large breasts.

This had been a piece I've been wanting for ages; I've always loved something that looked innocent and angelic. When it finally came in the mail, I was very disappointed that it came in a wrinkled plastic bag with a hanger that made it seem mass produced; even the other chemise I ordered had better packaging and it had none!
The chemise itself "on the rack" wasn't what I expected. One, the model on the site made the piece seem a bit more opaque than it actually is. Two, the piece itself looked a bit messy and formless when it isn't worn. Lastly, I'd like to note that on the back of the little tag, there was a sticker with a hand written F on it; I'm not sure what that means, but it was interesting.
As you can see, the chemise itself is white with baby blue lace for trimmings. The "side" lace, that's laced up shoelace style is actually on approximately the 2/3 mark of the left cup. The back has 2 pieces of lace that are meant for you to tie together to adjust the tightness of the back. Even though the back is pretty open due to the spaghetti straps, you can adjust it to hug the body pretty well.
The g-string is a standard white g-string made with the same materials as the chemise and is just as sheer.
One of my only problems was that the side lace doesn't have a way of tying it, and I'm always worried one is going to fall out and I'd have a hard time restringing it. The other is that although the edges of the piece are made in a way that it hugs skin and doesn't cause wardrobe malfunctions, the cups themselves are a little airy even when all the straps were pulled as tightly as possible. The third isn't really a problem specifically with the piece, since all clothing has tags, but this one is particularly irritating. I hate cutting off tags, but with this, I had to.
Other than those two issues, I really like this piece a lot. It fits well and despite looking messy flat, it is very form fitting. Even though I have no need for it, I still do like that this has a degree of stretch to it. This piece is really comfortable and feels like I'm wearing nothing.
This piece is made of 91% nylon and the lace on the piece is 88%. You're supposed to hand wash this in cold water and to use non-chlorine bleach. Do not wring or twist this piece while cleaning it and line dry it. Don't stick it in the washing machine.
From the center of the cups to the bottom of the actual chemise measures 16", which I feel is a bit short and is more of a camisole length. Because of the high level of adjustability, due to the lacing, there is no real hip/waist measurement as it can all be adjusted. It might not look as good if you're a bit bigger.

Follow-up commentary
4 months after original review
This still hasn't broken, despite how sheer it is! The only problem I have is the ribbons shifting too much, but after I tied off the ends everything is a-okay. Washing it is a bit of a hassle too, because of the sheerness of the fabric as well as the ribbons, but this is something I don't mind handwashing.
