I Feel Pretty, Oh So Pretty
This unique set is like a cross between a babydoll and a corset and has pros and cons for both. The corset only keeping tabs on the first 7" under your breasts can cause some excess bulging underneath if yours is too small, and it does run small. The babydoll portion is cute and flowy and soft to the touch, but you should probably order a size up.

Pros
Unique design, Looks great on multiple body types
Cons
Stomach can pooge out underneath corset if too small, Crappy thong
This was a really unique looking piece I've had my eye on for a long time and after caving and buying it (and a few other things I've been lusting after for a while) I'm pretty happy with my purchase.
This came in a lovely plastic bag wrapped with lovely pink tissue paper. There was a tag attached to the babydoll, but that was the extent of the packaging. Care and materials are listed on a tag on the top, but the thong only has a size tag. Your set is made of 82% Nylon and 18% Spandex exclusive of the trip and should be hand washed in cool water and laid out to dry. It does have straps so you can hang it in a closet if you'd like, or you can keep it in a drawer since it's unlikely to wrinkle.
I got this set in a size small. To Coquette, this means I should be a size 4-6, with a B cup, a 34-36" bust, 26-28" waist, and 36-38" hips. Personally I'm about 5'2, I weigh about 110, around my bust measures 32" and underneath measures about 28 1/2". I've got about a 29" waist with 37" hips and wear a good solid B cup. I'd recommend going up a size, because even though I wear a 4/6 dress size I have mine loosened almost all the way and it's comfortably tight on me.
What you're getting with this set is the corset/babydoll and a thong. The top is like a cross between a babydoll and a corset with the center section lacing in the back and closing in the front. The corset section measures about 7" tall and with the ribbon let out most of the way it measures about 26 1/2" across. It's made up of two sections connected by the ribbon in the back. The outer edges that connect both feature metal boning while all the rest is plastic. There are two busks in the front that keep your corset section closed. The outside of the corset part and the thong are both a really pretty burgundy red. The corset has velvet accents on the outside where all the pieces of plastic boning are. The cups and bottom part are both a soft black mesh that's see through, at least in the cup area. The straps are adjustable. The cups are very soft and pretty stretchy so with this size while it can easily accommodate a B cup, a C cup would look just as good and the cups would stretch to cover them. The cups connect to each other by way of a small ribbon that you tie in a bow. You might get some breast support from the corset underneath the breasts acting like underwire, but there won't really be any support in the breasts. The bottom layer is made up of two layers of a soft mesh, the outer one coming down 6" and the inner one coming down about 8". The tag is located on the inside of the bottom mesh portion.
Because the corset part isn't such a huge part of the overall piece, it's not too bad to adjust on your own. It's of course going to be easier with the help of somebody else, but it's not that hard to loosen/tighten the ribbon in the back and try it back on until it fits properly.
The thong kinda sucks to be honest. The material matches that of the corset perfectly, and the trim/waistband has a little bit of stretch to it, but that's about where the good ends. The satin type material has no give to it at all, and my 37" hips fit in it comfortably, but there wasn't much wiggle room. While closer to your traditional thong design with the piece of fabric up the back rather than a T-back, it was actually decently comfortable.
Overall I think this is fairly well made. The ribbon that ties the cups together looks like it'd be the first to go, but does seem to be held on pretty well.

Experience
I went back and forth with the sizing for a while after I bought it. Normally from Coquette I'm good in a small, even with their corsets. But this one barely seemed to fit and even though I settled on keeping the size I have, I'm still a little nervous about it continuing to fit if I gain weight. But I'll cross that bridge when I get there.
The thong I won't lie about, I only wore it to write the review. When I pulled it out of the packaging initially, I had a feeling it was going to be like wearing the one that came with this corset, and I was right, and it kinda sucked. The top looks just as good with a pair of regular black panties underneath it. I really like having this piece, it really is very unique and looks cute with jeans too. It's easy to keep on during sex or foreplay and doesn't get in the way. It doesn't do much for smaller breasts to begin with, but I've successfully worn a bra with this to get some more cleavage. The only thing I'm not as fond of about this top is that because it's right on the edge of not fitting properly, if I'm slouching at all I get a muffin bottom underneath the corset area where that part of my stomach doesn't get restricted at all. I don't have much of a stomach to begin with so it's not too bad to suck it in and keep some decent posture, but it is something that should be taken into consideration.
I would say that if you can get the right size, this is a nice addition to any collection.

Follow-up commentary
9 months after original review
Well, I gained a little more weight. And I didn't like the way I looked in this anymore. It wasn't a total loss though, at least for my sister, who gained a new piece of lingerie out of the situation.
