This item is absolutely perfect with my ballroom style wedding dress. It is exactly the way it appears in the photo and provides the fullness needed for my dress. The bridal stores wanted $60-$80 for a similar undergarment and was not as nice as this one. I like the draw string and it is very comfortable. This is a well made item and if you steam or fluff it out (do not iron) it will work well for you as well. This was the last item needed to complete my wedding day attire and I was so excited when I tried it on...I knew my that my bridal shopping was completed.
