I originally purchased the white color blouse, but ended up returning it as it had some fabrication defects. Given that their customer service was exceptionally great, I gave them another try and decided to purchase the same blouse, but in black color instead...and it did not disappoint me!The material has a soft feeling and it is somewhat stretchy, so it is very flattering to the body. Although the material is a bit thicker than expected, it is quite attractive to the eye and soft to the touch. Also, the fine, hand-woven looking trims that connect the larger/thicker lace pieces give this blouse a delicate and feminine touch at the same time.So, if you decide to purchase this blouse (I would totally recommend it!), make sure to hand-wash it or use the "delicate" setting if you use a washer machine instead. I hand-washed mine and the funky smell was no more. I also did it to make sure not to ruin the lace or the hand-woven looking trims.
