I feel like a ballerina!

Overall, I think this is pretty cute. However, the pearls were something I was most looking forward to, and there was an issue with the clasps, rendering the pearls not wearable at the moment unless I can find a way to fix that. The fit and color of this are great, and the lace makes it super feminine and cute.

extremely useful review
Packaging for this corset was very minimal. I came in a plastic sleeve, no hanger or anything. I think this would have been really cute if it came on a padded satiny hanger to match, like some other Coquette pieces that I've gotten. It came with a tag attached regarding how to tie the ribbon belt/restraints, a general product tag, and a bag safety pinned on to the corset that contains the 4 matching removable garters.




At first, I thought this didn't have that blue/gray belt that is shown in the product images, but then I picked up the corset and it was folded up inside of the corset, with the thong. Also, the ribbon belt/restraints are more of a light gray than shown in the product pictures, which makes them look more blueish and dark.



The ribbon belt/restraints was a bit confusing at first glace. One flat piece of ribbon for the "belt" look in the front, which has three lengths of ribbon on either side that go in the back. There are then a total of six ribbons, three on either side in the back. These could be done up in a number of ways, I'm sure. These ribbons would be a light restraint, if you were to use them for their intended use. In the product pictures, one length of ribbon from each side is used to tie a bow in the back center of the corset, and the others are used as restraints. Personally, this ribbon as a restraint would do nothing for me, so I would leave out this ribbon completely (which would mean no belt), or just tie it all up into one big bow. The ends of the ribbon are cut and finished, except I did notice that one of the ribbons had a bit of a jagged edge that was beginning to fray.




Also, as you can see, one side of each length of ribbon is satiny, the other is matte.


At first, I thought the two little loops on the front of the corset were loose threads, and I became concerned. However, these are the loops that the ribbon belt/restraints go through, to keep it in place.


The pearls attach to little hooks on the front of the corset, like a necklace. There are two pearl strands on either side, and each strand has a lobster clasp to attach onto the hooks on the front of the corset. The hooks blend to match the color of the corset, so it won't look all that weird if you decide to go without the pearls. Also, I think the pearls are very cute, but I'm not one for big bows with rhinestones in the middle. The rhinestone in the middle of the bow is the aspect of this that I least like, I think it looks tacky and silly. Sadly, the pearls are attached to the detachable bow, so if you want to keep the pearls on it, you have to keep the bow. Of course, you could always try to remove the rhinestone, and put something else in its place, or alter the bow in some way. I think the pearls are very cute, but I'd be a little worried about them catching on something with the way they dangle and hang off the corset.





One thing I was really happy to see on this was a busk closure. I see a lot of hook and eye closures on corsets, and personally, I hate them. Zippers can be quick and easy, but I think a busk front looks so traditional and neat. The main fabric of the corset is a pink satiny material, silky to the touch. The rest is a lot of lace and some ribbon detailing that runs along the bottom above the lace trim.

This thong is the exact same odd style as one that I got recently with a different Coquette bra and panty set. Very square, weirdly placed straps, awkward. Not something that I would ever feel comfortable with the style of. It's too bad, because it would be cute to have a thong that matched this. The thong is stiff, and a very awkward shape. There isn't much of any stretch to the fabric of it. The front of it is more square-shaped than anything thongs I would consider wearing. There is no liner. The back of it, the thong part, is awkward and divides into two straps that seem high up and strangely designed. I don't think this thong is very practical...
Experience
(CONTINUED)
As I said, this comes with 4 removable garters. There are cream colored bra-strap-style straps attached to the corset, but they are removable as well. They match the color of the lace trim that runs along the top and bottom edges of the corset. Here is the detail of the lace and ribbon trim detail along the bottom of the corset:


The garters are very cute, and made to match the corset perfectly. They are very elasticy, and have a cinched up look to them. They have a good amount of stretch. They are the same pink satiny fabric as the corset, and they have the cutest pale pink ribbons covering the clips. I think the garters are adorable! They are removable, so the corset can be worn with or without them.


This claims to have metal boning on the product page, which I was doubting, but hopeful for. It does not feel like it has metal boning at all, it feels like plastic boning.

One thing the disappointed me was when I took the bow off, because the dangly pearls were getting in the way when I was trying to get the corset on. I took off the bow, then picked it back up once I got myself situated in the corset, and when I giddily went to clip the pearls to the hooks to see how cute they look attached to the corset...the clasps were gone! There was one clasp left, out of the four that had been there! I didn't understand, they were JUST there, and I only took the bow off for a second, put it down, and picked it back up...and they were all gone! Yes, all, because one was left, and when I touched each of the strands to look and see where they went, the one clasp that was left on one last strand fell off on to my bed! I can't even find the other three clasps, no idea where they went, but these clasps fall off with no force at all, just movement and they'll come right off! Thankfully, I should have some spare clasps around from working with jewelry in the past, so I can try to fix it up, hopefully it will work!



The fit of this corset is very much according to size. I got the large, my measurements are 38-30-38 and this fits well. However, I also have a C/D cup, and if you have anything smaller than that, you might find the cup parts a bit loose and baggy. I laced this corset as tight as I can get it, and I fit into it well, with a little bit of cleavage even. I don't think an A or B cup would enjoy the fit of this on their bust.
I am tall, and I find this to be a nice fit. I don't have any issues with it being to short or sticking out. It's about 16 or 17 inches long.

Follow-up commentary
I still think this is a very pretty corset, but I am still bummed about the pearl strands breaking. I haven't had the time to repair the clasps and reattach them to the strands, so the corset still doesn't have those pretty draping pearls on the front like in the product images. I would probably wear this a lot more if I could wear it with the pearls!
