Not what I expected...
This is not a horrible piece, but the name is a little misleading. It is more a velour than a satin. This is not a piece that I am enjoying very much, but I think that some will like it.

When I first saw this piece on EdenFantasys, I was really excited. It looked like such a simple, little dress. Unfortunately, it was not what I was hoping for.
First, I was expecting a different type of material. Instead of receiving the “satin” implied by the title, the dress is made out of a material that feels more like a very smooth velour. It is still soft though. It is comfortable to wear and not itchy. The material is completely opaque, and is only somewhat see-through when held up to the light. The tag states that it is made of 96% Polyester and 4% Elastane, excluding trims. It should be hand washed and drip dried only. The tag also states to keep it away from fire in large red letters, so you might want to opt for a different piece if you plan on creating romance with candles. The garter clasps and the strap adjustors are made of plastic.
This dress is a “one size fits most,” which is definitely more of a “one size fits some" if you’re kind of small. There is not size chart, but the box says that the dress should fit someone between 5’ and 5’10” and between 100 and 175 pounds. I am 5’8” and this dress stops just below my butt. I can’t imagine this looking right on someone who is any taller. The dress is 21 inches long down the front, 18 inches long down the side, and 18 inches long down the back. The bottom of the dress is trimmed with a ruffle that is 2 inches top to bottom. It measures 12 inches across at the bust, 12 inches across at the waist, and 15 inches across at the hips. The material is a little stretchy, but not much. It cannot be stretched more than an inch, maybe an inch and a half. The straps at the top are fully adjustable. There are 4 adjustable garters at the bottom of the dress. The shortest these can be adjusted to is 5 inches including the clasp and the longest is 8 inches including the clasp. These garters are not removable.
There is no underwire or padding to provide bust support, only a seam running underneath the bust area. There was a part of this seam that was stitched loosely enough to create a small hole. I take this as an indicator of poor craftsmanship. Even though there are no defined cups, it was painfully obvious that this was not made for someone with smaller breasts. I am a 34B and there was so much more room for my breasts that I couldn’t fill that it made the dress kind of sag. Tightening up the straps did not help to fix this. This would fit someone better if they had C or D cups. The little bit of ruching in the middle though will bring attention to your cleavage.
This was a little tight on me everywhere except for the bust. I would say that the maximum measures for wearing this would be a 32 inch waist and 42 inch hips.

Experience
Like I said before, I was expecting something a little different. I was hoping for something that that would skim over my body rather than cling to it. It could have been a little longer. Overall, It is probably not something I am going to wear much, but I think that some will like it. It is not a bad piece, but it could have fit me a little better.
Follow-up commentary
4 days after original review
This piece has a lot of potential to be a nice piece, but I just don't have the body to fill it out the way it was intended. This would be a lot better if it came in multiple sizes than just a "one size fits most." I really want to like this dress, but it just doesn't fit me in a flattering way.

Thank you for viewing Satin mini dress – babydoll and panties set review page!
This piece doesn't look too "cheap," but I mean you can tell you didn't break the bank to buy it. It actually looks nice if you have the curves to fill it out.
