This outfit is worth the buy if you don't intend to be bending over much or if you have a shorter torso than I do. The removable straps and overall garments ability to adapt to all body forms is a great feature. I love that the lace up front is short and has the longer zipper for further access. The boning helps to keep your bodies shape looking nice. Only downside is length in the tush and the flimsy belt.

extremely useful review
The Pirate Pin Up costume came in a standard Dreamgirl costume bag on a hanger. Within the bag which is closed by a simple plastic snap was a photo of a model wearing the outfit plus a fake sword, the corset dress outfit (detachable straps), the sheer white puffy sleeves, the black head scarf, black and gold belt. I ordered the small as I am 34C, 23, 35 and 5'7".
The dress is a corseted dress with boning in the breast and front rib area only, this boning is a flexible plastic. The material in the boning area is red with gold print on it and the remainder of the dress is black in color the entirety of the dress is a polyester/rayon mixture. The back of the dress very stretchy. Four of these seams lack boning which include the seams beside the zipper and the outermost tow breast seams. The top part of the chest where your breasts are held is laced with a black ribbon and under it is a red zipper; this zipper measures to be 10" and moves fluidly. Dress bottom circumference is 36" Dress underbust circumference is 24" Dress bust circumference is 26.5" Dress waist circumference is 25" Dress back length 22" Dress length at breast seam front 23.25" Dress length at center front 22" White ruffle at top front of dress 3/4".
Each sheer white sleeve measures to be 20" long with a 8 1/2" non stretched (16" stretched) circumference for the larger elastic entrance, the smaller circumference being 6 1/2" non stretched (14" stretched)
Black scarf measurements= 48" x5"
(folded in half)
Black and gold belt. 33" x 2" Black material; belt buckle 2 5/8" x 2" with 5 gold holes.
Now while this outfit is very cute when standing you must watch your booty while collecting booty.
The only other issue I have with this outfit other than me booty being out for raid is the quality of the belt included. It is VERY flimsy material and though it hasn't yet it seems up for breaking at the slightest tug. The holes look very randomly placed as they are not spaced out evenly. For this issue I have just simply used another black belt with a gold buckle to make sure I don't have any issue in public.

Thanks for the great review!
Just wondering if the material itchy at all?
The seams can be a little itchy but really it is not that big of a deal, honestly while wearing my strapless bra I hardly notice the itch.
