When I saw this piece from DreamGirl, I KNEW I had to get it as a surprise for my man. He has this thing about black lingerie, and this piece looked like something he would drool over.

The Lace Front Chemise with Thong arrived at my doorstep wrapped in nothing more than tissue paper. The tag wasn't even attached to the lingerie. Immediately upon picking it up, I knew I was going to like it. The chemise felt like butter in my hands, and the lace on the front was velvety soft. It felt so luxurious when I put it on, even though the cups were a little bunched up as I have small breasts for my plus-sized frame. The material was amazing against the skin and I was thoroughly impressed.

The included thong was the same mesh material as most of the chemise. I felt it ran a little small for the size I had ordered (I ordered the 1X/2X and the thong was very tight). Seeing as I never wear the thongs/g-strings that come with lingerie anyway, this won't be a problem for me. But if you are above a size 16, the thong may be uncomfortable!

The Lace Front Chemise from DreamGirl is made from nylon and spandex. Because of the spandex, hot water is NOT recommended. Sudsy tepid water and hand washing are best for this item.

I saw a lot of worries about the bows and lack of underwire. As far as the bows are concerned, they look a lot better on the lingerie in person, than they do in the model's pictures. In my opinion, the chemise would look strange without them. But hey, it's all personal taste.

There is no underwire in this chemise. But for my size 38C breasts, it doesn't seem to matter. The detailing really draws your attention to other places and makes you look great as a whole! Just ask my man who got to see me try it on for the first time while I was sick with strep throat! Not a sexy picture, but he LOVED it.

Just to clarify, everything but the cups and down the middle is sheer mesh. The cups/middle has a velvet like lace overlay on the mesh, making parts of it sheer as well.

Overall, a great piece to add to your collection. Definitely worth the price.

The Lace front chemise is still one of my absolute favorite pieces of lingerie. It gets used weekly! I've washed it several times, and it hasn't started coming apart anywhere. There are no frays, holes, loose threads, etc.
