The Lace Up Chemise arrived on a plastic hanger inside a clear plastic bag. The colors are very soft & feminine, but the black adds a sophisticated, sexy touch that pulls the chemise together. The shoulder straps are adjustable.

The cups are padded and shaped, with black lace on the top and white lase accents on the sides. The white lace extends down both sides on the front, the product page made it look like velvet, but it is sheer, white, stretchy lace. The pink mesh is super stretchy and comfortable, but does cling to your shape and can show flaws. The corset-style lace up in the front helps to hide your stomach flaws and is super flattering. The length hits me right below my crotch and comes halfway up my butt. The back also has a corset lacing but it is very tight. I spent about an hour loosening it and getting it to lace right--but it was very worth it afterwards. Thinner women will not have to do this.

The seams are very well sewn. The material is cheaper, but with the design and added touches, it makes the chemise a nice, quality piece. Amazing how some added higher end material accents can really up the quality of a garment!! There are underwires that are padded, they fit flat and do not dig in to your skin. The bust is a bit smaller than I would like, but for the bedroom it works out quite well.

I have a hard time fitting most chemises, but am on a mission to find a few that are perfect for me. This one is not perfect, but is dang close. I love the stretch fit--even though if you are larger than I am, I would not recommend purchasing this chemise. My size has this maxed out on stretch and fit.

The material is 90% polyester 10% spandex. Hand washing is recommended and air drying is a must! I wash this in warm, soapy water and rinse it in cold water. This helps it retain its shape. Do not wring the material, this will cause unsightly wrinkles. I do gently squeeze the bust pads.

This is stored on a hanger in my wardrobe. You could carefully roll this up and store it in a dresser drawer, if desired. Just do not smash or flatten the bust cups. This is definitely made for bedroom wear, or when you know you will have no company. The design is primarily sheer, but maybe with the right tamk or chemise underneath, you could wear this out in public. I have not tried that, but could see where it may be an option. This is purchased for my bedroom exploits only.

The chemise has held up very well and still looks almost new. My husband will now ask me when I am going to wear the 'full moon' lingerie and I know he is talking about his one. I will surprise him with it occasionally and love the reaction i get.

The comfort of this piece got better with each washing and now it is as soft as flannel. the seams and details have held out very well and are in good condition. I recommend this as a nice addition to your lingerie collection.
