BEAUTIFUL!  The embroidery is gorgeous!  It is very sheer!  The white color is very white (no hints of gray or pink), but again, it is very sheer.  You can decide how high you want to "scrunch" it up because there is a series of little clear plastic rings so you can adjust the height.  You can kind of see the clear rings through the fabric-- probably because I have it on the lowest height possible, so the other rings are not used. They look beautiful and let in a lot of softly filtered light.
