Very Beautiful... If it fits!
Overall, it's a great buy for the price. As long as your measurements line up, go for it! Material is very durable and it is a beautiful design. Looks like something I could wear out with jeans and an overcoat or jacket to a club or shopping. It covers you enough not to feel self-conscious, but shows enough to make your partner want to rip it off!

Pros
Beautiful if it fits you, High quality material (except for ribbon), Durable/cute thong
Cons
Cup size is a little big for C's (L), Ribbon is very thin and will wear out, Cannot iron material
So I wanted to spice up my night, just as any other girl would for her hard-working man. I saw this outfit online and immediately knew I had to get it. It looked like it was an outfit that would cover all the right spots, and leave all the right spots open. Unfortunately, I had to make some adjustments to this outfit to make it fit. I bought a large, and I am usually great with buying large off of any brands on this site. Except for DreamGirl apparently...
The large size from the DreamGirl sizing chart measures as follows:
Breast: C-D cup
Bust in.: 36-38
Waist in.: 28-32
Hip in.: 38-40
Inseam in.: 35.5
Rise in.: 8-8.5
Weight: 140-150
Of course, every female is different. I, myself am inside of these limits in some places, and outside in others, so I took a chance buying this outfit. I'm mostly out of these ranges as far as weight, and waist measurements. I am a 36C cup, and everything else fits except for the waist area.
When I first tried it on, I could tell that the amount of ribbon for the lacing was not going to work. I could still lace up the outfit, but there wasn't enough to tie it and leave a bow, which is a major deal for me. So I headed over to Wal-Mart and bought some extra ribbon, which fixed that problem perfectly. I only needed about 10 more inches, but I used 20 so I could make a big fancy bow at the bottom. I also bought a thicker ribbon because the ribbon that comes with this outfit is terribly thin. The original ribbon measured 61 inches long, leaving you 30.5 on each side when lacing up the back. It looks like a great amount of ribbon when first viewing it, but it seriously isn't at all. My outfit fit and looked much better once I had that extra 10 to fit, and 10 for the ribbon.
As far as cup size, these cups run a little big. I suppose that is to accomodate those with D sized breasts. I am between a C and a D, so there was a little extra room. Not extremely noticeable, but it isn't going to give you that "push-up" look like most women want. I was able to fix this by wearing a strapless bra underneath, which I found to be a drag throughout the entire night. If you're serious about wearing this outfit all night without having to fix your bra underneath, either sew extra cups on, or use one of those silicone bra inserts.
The material is of surprisingly high quality, and impressed me compared to other outfits I have purchased off of EF in the past. Many have had extremely thin fabrics, to the point where you will never be able to wash them. This outfit will get through the washing machine with no problems if you wash with cold water, lingerie soap, and put it on a delicate cycle. You also want to be sure only to wash it with other lingerie. No jeans, t-shirts, pants, etc.
To be exact, this outfit is made of Microfiber, which is a material made of synthetic fibers with strands less than one denier. It is very lightweight, feels soft against the skin, and is almost as if you are already naked. It doesn't stretch out after use, and goes right back to the size it was before you put it on (for the slightly overweight girls like myself, your chemise will not develop a baby bump from your tummy). You truly should never iron Microfiber materials since it is synthetic and can actually burn/melt. A better way to remove wrinkles from this would be to hang it on a hanger just next to your shower as you take a hot bath/shower. The steam will remove the wrinkles without damaging the material.
One thing I was very pleased with was the thong offered with this outfit. The back has pink ruffles which added the cutest touch, and for some reason remind me of a bunny rabbit costume. Almost like having a little fluffy tail, except it doesn't really stick out. My fiance, in particular, loved it as well. The thong was similar to a g-string in the way that there was a very small piece of fabric, rather than a large piece all throughout the crotch area. However, the back was rather large compared to most. It was very sturdy, didn't break or come undone during sex, and did not shrink during wash. Almost all the thongs I have ever bought from lingerie stores have busted during sex one way or another.

Experience
My advice to those contemplating this purchase is NOT to assume you will fit into this outfit if your measurements are off, even just a "little bit". Go out to the dollar store, buy some measuring tape and measure your bust, hips, waist, etc. and use those measurements to determine if this outfit will work for you or not. Always add 0.5-1.0 inches to each measurement as well, because a lot of things run small. I've never, ever, ever had a problem with size large until this outfit, but it would be a shame for you to go through this as well.
Of course, this outfit looked nice after I made my adjustments, but let's be honest with each other - It's a huge pain in the ass to have to go through all of that to fit into a $32 outfit. For the price of the extra ribbon and the bra to wear underneath, I easily could have bought a more expensive outfit that I knew would have fit correctly. It is a beautiful outfit... Gorgeous, actually. I'll give it 4 stars because if you, yourself, were to fit into it, you would be very pleased with the way you look. It's comfortable, feels almost as if you are naked, and is easy to take off once you've got it on. I recommend lacing this one up ahead of time, or having a friend help you put it on. A great idea is to start lacing from the top down so that you can simply tie the bottom once you've put it on over your head. That's the easiest way to do this if you're doing it alone.

I ended up just giving this to my little sister today. It isn't comfortable to wear something that isn't fitting properly.

Follow-up commentary
16 days after original review
My sister is the current owner of this outfit, since it just didn't look its best on me. However, she complains that the material snags very easily - almost too easily - every since she gave this outfit her first wash. I'm not sure the reason for this, but it definitely sucks.
