Cute but not effective
Overall, I do love this piece. It's very comfortable for any occasion, adorable, and the broach that a good bit complains is "too much" is removable. The only downfall, and the reason for my 4 star rating, is that even though the stretch is nice because of there being no lace up feature, it does poorly for holding in that gut. If the boning was actually metal it may have helped with holding, but they are plastic. Lovely addition though, especially for those a bit more toned in the stomach area.

Pros
Soft. Stretchy, Removable sash and broach.
Cons
Stretchy, plastic boning, only has hook-eye closure
If you are looking for a lovely addition for a night out or in for Valentine’s Day, this corset is a very nice piece to pick out to wear for the evening as long as you are not looking for something to suck in those rolls and keep you slim looking.
This corset is just as cute as the image shows. It has a lovely red color to it with cute ruffles on the top and bottom both. I have a tendency of getting annoyed or itchy when I have a lot of ruffles on my top, but these ones did not bother me. The material of the whole corset (made of Lace / Lycra / Mesh) is soft and very comfortable.
It is nice that this corset is stretchy since it does not lace up, giving you plenty leeway to still get the piece on your body type. However, because of its stretch, it does not flatten my stomach at all. If I want the corset effect, I have to wear another corset under this piece.
Another downfall is that the product page states that it has metal boning. This is not accurate. The boning in this corset is plastic, not metal.
With this corset, you get 4 detachable garter straps, two detachable shoulder straps, and a removable red sash with a removable bear pin broach. All pieces are easily removed and put back on and stay in place very nicely. I was iffy about the sash at first for all year usage until I saw that the bear is indeed removable. It is held on by a pin that can be removed and out back on easily.
I have worn this item out a couple times and it does hold up very nicely. I've not had any problems so far with it ripping and moving out of place. It's so soft and comfortable; I could probably sleep in it.

Does not do much to hide fat, especially since I've gained, but I do still love it. Typically, I wear it over a cross back tank with a pair of jeans.
