My Chemical Romance
2 pieces for the price of one? Yes, please! Oh, I could make one that looks nicer using a stapler and a set of sheets? Bummer. It is true, this was not quality craftsmanship. The babydoll (which was nothing more than a sheath of material) was very unflattering and hung awkwardly off my body. The chemical smell was disappointing, and kind of grossed me out. The robe could be salvageable and that's all she wrote!

Pros
2 pieces, good price
Cons
Seems cheap, unflattering
This black robe and babydoll by DreamGirl came to me on a black padded hanger, enrobed in plastic.
Straight out of the plastic I noticed a slight chemical smell that was really off-putting. I would not be so surprised by this if it were not for the fact that this is not a toy made out of anything that should have a chemical smell. It is polyester, with a satiny finish. As I tried the 2 pieces on the chemical smell was a bit overwhelming.
It is black and sleek and I had high hopes for it. The babydoll is not a babydoll at all. It is just a plain chemise with no shape whatsoever. It hangs very awkwardly. I am very curvy, but when I was wearing it you could not tell I had any curves at all.
The back of the chemise ties in two places: the top tie is about at the bra strap line of my back, and the lower tie is about even with my hip line. The top tie is semi-adjustable, so that it can accommodate different breast sizes. My breasts are a 38 D and there was plenty of extra string, so if your breasts are a size or two larger then I think it would accommodate you fine.
I did find one area where the seam was coming apart. I could see my fingers on the other side of it.
The robe is exactly as pictured here. I did really like the robe, and I hope that after I wash it the chemical smell will disappear. It has a thin tie on the inside and a thicker belt on the outside. Again, it fit me well with a little room to spare. I'll keep the robe as long as it doesn't stink.
Both pieces are hand wash and line dry.
SIZING
DreamGirl Size Chart My size
Size: 1x/2x 16
Cup: D-DD D
Bust: 40-48 38
Waist: 36-40 40
Hips: 42-48 44
Weight: 165-225 175
Based on the sizes, I think the weight is way off. It hangs now, but if I weighed 10 pounds more I think it would be too tight.
MEASUREMENTS
The front of the chemise from the lowest point in the "V" to the hem is 25". The back, from the bottom of the lowest tie, is 11 3/4". If I bend over wearing this it will ride up and my rear end is visible. But let's be honest, it's lingerie. That's sort of the point. ;)

Experience
The chemise was very unflattering, and neither my husband nor myself cared for it. The robe itself was actually very sexy, and we both did like it.

I just could not handle the smell of this and the fit was so bad. I got rid of it.
