Sexy in Silk
This is an expensive piece of lingerie, I know. But I think it is worth every penny. My wife loves this piece. It is made from pure silk and chiffon and feels fantastic on. It looks incredible and is very form-flattering. It is comfortable and can be sexy or comfy. It may too expensive for some, but for us, definitely worth the price.

Pros
Wonderful material, feels great on, fits well.
Cons
None that we can find, packaging not like other Lelo products.
Like I said above, this is an expensive piece of lingerie, there is no doubt about that. But it is totally worth it for us. My wife does not like cheap or poorly made lingerie. (Who does though?) She would much rather have 5 really good pieces than 15 okay pieces of lingerie, or clothing in general. She is a strong believer in quality over quantity and we gave that theory a shot with this piece and it was well worth it.
The camisole arrives in a plastic bag/package. It is folded flat, with Lelo tag attached by safety pin to the material. Care is taken so that the small black safety pins don't pierce or puncture the material in anyway and are very easy to remove. The tags have the Lelo brand name and the clothing size on it as well. There is some tissue paper inside the folds of the camisole but otherwise nothing else to the packaging, which is surprising for Lelo. Their toys arrive in such nice boxes and packaging that I was a little disappointed that their lingerie wasn't given the same treatment. I do not think that the bag could be used for storage, and would recommend that you store this in a lingerie drawer or something like that. It is acceptable for giving as a gift, people will know what you are giving, but this is such a nice piece that you could show it to your grandmother and not be embarrassed.
The camisole fits very well. it is a halter camisole, and the silk strings are easy to tie to hold up the top. My wife slips the camisole on and then ties the ties before zipping the side of the camisole. The back is elasticized so that there is some stretch to the fabric when you put it on. The camisole has a zipper on the left side that you zip up and then secure with a hook and eye closure. On the bottom of the camisole there are three ruffles that break up the lines and allow it to hide any imperfections. The bottom ruffle is very sheer and almost totally see through. The bust does not have any support, there is no underwire involved, but everything was comfortable for my wife when wearing it.
The picture in the product description does this piece justice, it is pink (or fuchsia depending on what you want to call it) and very much so. It was as vivid as we were expecting coming out of the packaging. Across the bust there are almost diagonal stripes, where part of the silk is a deeper pink than what is next to it. On the rest of the camisole these stripes run vertically. These stripes are subtle and look great on.
We ordered a size L and to give you an idea on the fit my wife wears a size 10 dress. Her cup size is 38C and this was snug, but not tight. It fit her well and wasn't tight or unflattering at all. The halter ties were easy to secure and stayed in place whenever she has been wearing it. The zipper was easy to zip and the hook and eye closure was easy to secure as well. The production on this is high quality, it is made from 100% silk and chiffon as well. The stitching is fantastic on this piece, all of the stitches were even and no stitch has come loose.
Since this is 100% silk I would recommend that this be dry cleaned only. With a slight spot you could spot clean it with water or such, but we are only going to dry clean this piece. I also wouldn't advise using a lot of liquids while wearing this, i.e. lots of lube or wet type play as it will stain and ruin the material.

Experience
This can be a sexy piece or a comfortable piece. With it being made of silk it can help retain heat and my wife has worn it with as a pajama top to sleep in and been very comfortable in it. It is incredibly sexy while on and she has said that she feels incredibly sexy in this. With this not having any underwire support, I don't think that she could wear this underneath other clothing out in public. But women who need less support could wear this under a blazer or sweater in public and feel comfortable.
If you like high quality lingerie pieces then you will like this piece. The material feels luxurious and you will feel incredible while wearing it. If the price seems overly high to you, you may not find enough to warrant its price tag. It's not a piece that everyone is going to love, but it is one we definitely do love.

Follow-up commentary
3 months after original review
Again as I stated in the original review, this is an expensive piece and if you don't feel lingerie is worth that type of price, you aren't going to be happy. But we love this piece, even more than we did when we first got it. It has served as a sexy bedroom piece, and also a very comfy pajama top for my wife. She has worn it under other items when going about her everyday activities and we've had several comments on it. She loves the silk, how soft it is and great it looks on her. It has held up well, which you would expect with such an expensive piece. We absolutely love it.
