Some of you who regularly read my reviews, may remember the story of how I lusted after this piece for weeks and finally broke down and bought it -only to realize...I'd bought it in white. I was in tears when I tried it on because I loved the design but hated the white color and my husband convinced me to keep it anyway and order the red later on.

I finally broke down and ordered the red and I'm in love with it.

What it is … how to wear it

While I suppose you could try to wear this as a short slip, it really is a pretty nightie to wear in the bedroom or around the house if there are no children around.

This item is currently available at Eden Fantasys in: Small, Medium, Large, 1x, 2x and 3x in colors black, white and red.

Packaging

This was simply folded and wrapped in pink tissue paper.

Material & Care

The tag states that it is machine washable for a warm, gentle wash. They state you should wash darks separately. This can be tumble dried on low if you remove it promptly and do not twist or wring it. It is made of 100% polyester.

Design, Sizing & Fit

According to the sizing chart, my bra should be 51"-54", my waist 40.5"-43" and my hips 51.5"-54". I should wear clothes sizes 22-26.
I am currently 265 pounds, wear 18-24 tops, wear 44D bra, with a waist of 49”, hips of 57” and a torso of 18-19” long.

Based on these measurements this item should be large in the breast, tight in the waist and a bit tight in the hips.

Due to the design of this, it is a bit tight in the waist and rides up on my butt in the back, but is fine otherwise.

Specific Measurements

center top of front to hem 22"
width of front 22" unstretched armpit to armpit, 46" at hem
strap length adjustable to 18", 1/4" width

G-string/thong description

This is just your basic g-string aka "butt floss".

Modeling the Garment







Breast support:



Comfort

This is simply one of the most comfortable pieces that I own. While it doesn't give me the breast support I could really use, I adore it anyway. I love the way it makes me feel when the skirt sort of twirls around me and I love the way I look in this color.

Some of you may remember my review earlier where I mentioned the Red Hat Society. For those who missed it, it is here.

The Red Hat Society poem is being shared below and you can learn more about Red Hat Society by visiting their website.

Anyway - for those who don't know the poem Warning - When I Am an Old Woman I Shall Wear Purple
By Jenny Joseph,, I share it below.

When I am an old woman, I shall wear purple
with a red hat that doesn't go, and doesn't suit me.
And I shall spend my pension on brandy and summer gloves
and satin candles, and say we've no money for butter.
I shall sit down on the pavement when I am tired
and gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bells
and run my stick along the public railings
and make up for the sobriety of my youth.
I shall go out in my slippers in the rain
and pick the flowers in other people's gardens
and learn to spit.

You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fat
and eat three pounds of sausages at a go
or only bread and pickles for a week
and hoard pens and pencils and beer nuts and things in boxes.

But now we must have clothes that keep us dry
and pay our rent and not swear in the street
and set a good example for the children.
We must have friends to dinner and read the papers.
But maybe I ought to practice a little now?
So people who know me are not too shocked and surprised
When suddenly I am old, and start to wear purple.

When Fantasy Lingerie starts to make this in purple - I am SO going to go broke spending my grocery money to buy it. Till then, I'll be happy with my red.
