Lovely and the price is RIGHT!
This is a GREAT corset, especially considering the price. It looks and feels amazing, and the oversized ribbon in the back is an incredibly unique touch. I like to wear my corsets out of the house, so I appreciate modesty panels, and this one doesn't have one. But the big fat ribbon in the back kind of makes up for that.

Pros
Luxurious, back is to DIE for, unique, great price
Cons
No modesty panel
The Oriana Corset is red and black, and has gorgeous accents that lay in all the right places to give the perfect illusion of that prime corseted figure. Usually, I'm a little skeptical about the corsets with the ruffles at the top, because they usually don't flatter my bustline very well (I'm a 36B). But this one seems to be done just right, with just the right amount of ruffle to draw the eye to where it matters most.
The front center has hook and eye closures, and in the back, there are oversized holes for the oversized ribbon to go through for lacing up for the perfect fit. Just like with many corsets, I recommend putting it on with a helper around. That way you can loosen it up, do the hook and eye closures, and then have the helper tighten the ribbon in the back. OTherwise, you are going to have a heck of a time with the hook and eye closures in the front (you'll do a few, and one will come undone... it can take a while if you don't have a helper).
One thing I was worried about when I saw it in person, was whether or not the silky ribbon in the back would stay tied tightly after it was worn for a bit. I wore it for a few hours, and didn't notice any loosening though.
It comes with 4 detachable adjustable black garter straps. It does not include stockings. It does come with your standard black thong, which is a nice touch, but if you've ever bought any lingerie that came with a thing, you probably already have the same one. It's nothing special.
I prefer metal boning in my corsets, but this one has plastic. It's still pretty sturdy though. It doesn't have any extra support, other than the boning (no cups or anything like that). The material is fairly thin (but you can't see through it). However, depending on where things lay for you, you run the risk of seeing the outline of an erect nipple or two, but on me, my nipples sit right behind the boning, so I don't have that issue.
The tag says to hand wash in cold water, and line dry.

Experience
Overall, I LOVE this corset. It has become one of my favorites. It's so unique compared to some of the others, mainly because of the back, even without having a modesty panel. Just from looking at it, I never would have imagined that it was one of the less expensive corsets. I've bought more expensive corsets that didn't please me as much as this one. It's worth every penny!

This is one of my favorite corsets. I love it. It's a little too fancy to wear for just a night out, I think, but it just feels SO luxurious! And it's holding up really well after all the times I've worn it!
