This chemise arrived on a hanger inside a plastic covering. It is made out of 80% Nylon and 20% Spandex. The tag says to hand wash only, but most likely it would be fine if washed in a lingerie bag in the washing machine.

The front and back panels of the chemise are solid black and the two side panels are see-through mesh. Around where the chemise sits across the ribcage, are four solid black piping details that reach from the front to the back.

The cups have an underwire that is sturdy. The cups are easily bendable and there is a seam running lengthwise down the middle of each cup. Above the cups, attached to the straps are two elastic strings that are attached in the middle of the bodice of the chemise by an elastic loop. They are meant to sit across the tops of breasts. The straps are adjustable just like a bra strap.

The panels measure 5 ½ inches across at the top of the chemise and a little over 7 inches across at the bottom. This is enough to cover all naughty parts but still reveal plenty on the side to see through.

I ordered a size medium, and it is very form fitting on my body. This is what I was looking for because I have plenty of flowly chemises, but if anyone is between the medium and large and does not want this to be tight, I would recommend going with the large. The dress fits me about an inch below my butt and there is no hope of bending over without everything falling out.

My measurements:
5' 7.5", 155 lbs but fit, 36D bust

Coquette's recommendations for the medium:
Size 8-10
B cup, 36-38 chest, 26-30 waist, 38-40 hips

The medium chemise is 22 inches long from the middle of the bodice to the bottom of the chemise. Laying flat, under the bust is 12 inches across and the bottom of the chemise is 16 inches across.

Although the size chart states that my chest should not fit into the medium, I actually found that there was room to spare. I have pretty perky medium size Ds and those who have large Ds or smaller will fit comfortably in this. I didn't notice that the underwire didn’t do much, and it certainly didn't lift up my breasts. There was some amount of support.

This chemise is tight on me, but it hugs my curves really well. My boyfriend really liked the way this looked on me, especially the fact that is was so short. He enjoyed the mesh because it retained mystery but showed enough skin for him to get excited. It was super comfortable to wear and I don't think anyone would have any problems wearing this long term. It has held up really well over time and it has gotten a lot of use recently!
