When buying these panties online, I ordered the large size (which, according to the charts, is my exact size). Then, when I put the panties on, I suddenly thought to myself "Oh crap... You made a huge mistake". Gathering up on honeymoon lingerie is not easy, and when you make a mistake it can feel like the end of the world.

I took the panties off, set them down for a while, and then wondered if maybe I could stretch them a little. Turns out, the stretching was all it took to make these fit. The lace material must just be very bunched up, which is why I had to do that. These panties stretched very easily, and did not break - However, I would be careful if you are a larger woman. These are NOT going to fit someone who normally wears a 1X.

The lace material does, unfortunately, gather a lot of fuzz when washing. So you either want to do this by hand in your sink or bath tub, or wash these panties in a lingerie bag. Lace is delicate, and so is the color, so use a delicate laundry soap/lingerie detergent, and put your washer machine on a cold delicate cycle.

DO NOT dry these panties or they will shrink. This has happened to me countless times. Either hang these to dry over your shower curtain pole or put them on a hanger for an hour or two.

Honestly, the corset-style string in the back (which is, in reality, more like a shoe lace) can break easily. The top of mine has already come undone and needed a bit of sewing and fabric glue to ensure that these beautiful panties wont break.

I would recommend only slimmer women to wear these. I hate to say things like this, but larger women are going to tear these up once they try them on. Even me, wearing a L size, found it hard to put them on. I probably wont get more than one or two wears out of these.

The open crotch leaves enough room for vaginal play, but the opening does not extend far enough back for any anal play. This was a huge bummer for me, but these panties are just so beautiful that I guess it makes up for that.

I was able to walk around in these for about an hour or two without any breakage, but as I mentioned, the laces were about to come undone. Minor fixes like that don't upset me too much, but it is a little annoying to have to "fix" your lingerie. If you're one of those people who just doesn't have the time to sit down and do a little extra sewing, I wouldn't recommend buying these.

As far as looks, these are gorgeous. The lace has a beautiful floral pattern that really adds an extra sexy touch. I love the idea of the lacing up around the upper butt area as well. My fiance really loves the way these look. They show about half of your cheeks and will not ride up or anything like that, so you wont have to worry about constantly readjusting.

The most important advice I can offer is to really measure yourself and make sure to buy the size corresponding with the sizing chart for DreamGirl. If you can't fit, you can't fit, and you have to come to that realization. Nobody wants to waste money!

Size Chart

These panties looked really great on me after further securing the laces in the back. They took a little stretching as well, but it all worked out in the end. These look best with a nice black lace bra, or a see-through lace camisole. An open-front babydoll/chemise would also look very nice. I could even see these looking good with a t-shirt or naked top! The possibilities are endless as long as you have a gorgeous pair of undies.

I find it awesome when you don't have to stop and take off your panties so you can have sex. I know that naked sex is just so much fun, but there's really something sexy about keeping your panties on and easily being able to work around them! The open crotch also makes a nice way to tease your partner before play!

They take some stretching, as I mentioned, but these are still very cute and very fun to wear. I've lost about 10 lbs so they fit perfectly now and I love him!
