I love this Maid for Fun costume from Escante and I've noticed a lack of positive reviews on it so I wanted to support this piece with a glowing write up. First of all, I've read Escante runs a little small so even though I'm usually a size small — I'm a B-cup and a size 6-8 — I went with the medium just to be on the safe side. I'm really glad I did because I feel like it fits well and I'm comfortable and not squished. It's possible I could have fit nicely in the small — the outfit is stretchy and accommodating — but the medium is definitely not too big; it fits well.

The best thing about this costume is hands down the amount of items included with it. It's a built-in garter costume which comes with black pantyhose, a lacy leg garter, and a ribbon tie removable apron. I'm a little up in the air on the apron; I think the costume can go with or without it, but I think I favor with — it really ties in the whole maid theme. Without it, the theme may not come across as easily.

I love the detail on this costume. Much of the bodice is trimmed with lace, which is underlaid with white satin ribbon. There's white lace over the cups and a white tiny bow at the chest center. The straps over the arms are black lace with white ribbon as well, not plain and boring. The bodice has a white center and white cups which another reviewer said was see-through. I did not have the same problem, I felt that it was reasonably opaque. Also, the cups have wire in them which I rarely find in sexy costumes.

The bottom skirt is quite long and solid black, and it's lined with a thin mesh skirt underneath. The garters are sewn in with the skirt; they are plain black and had good length for me, but I'm not super tall (5'6"). One thing I'm not crazy about is the quality of the material. The costume is 80% polyester and 20% nylon. It's stretchy and comfy, but it's not exactly top quality production. The black and white fabrics are just a basic stretch polyester fiber with no frills (except all the lace and ribbon!). So the fabric is not something with a great tactile sensation; it's very practical and washable (they recommend hand washing). However, it's not rough or irritating to the the skin for me. The apron has a big white ribbon to wrap around your waist and was easy for me to tie. It looks nice on, with a big white lace border.

The pantyhose are cheap and don't have super elasticity, so you might find them a little baggy on you if you have skinny legs. But they are free with the costume and look flattering on me so I'm very happy. The leg garter is simple: elastic with black and white lace/ribbon, classy and cute. Ohh, and this costume does come with the customary ugly panty. In the description on the website it says ruffled panty — there's nothing ruffled about it. It's just a black string bikini with a white elastic border. I'm not crazy about it, but I usually give perfunctory panties a rating of 2/3 out of 10, whereas I could stand to give these a 4/5. They're slightly better than your average pair.

The fit of the costume is great for me. It holds tight enough in the chest for me to feel supported, but I'm only a B-cup so that's usually not too much of an issue. Overall, I just feel sexy and relaxed when I'm wearing it. It's not itchy and the fabric doesn't pull in weird directions that make you feel confined. It's relatively loose in relation to how it sits against your skin.

The skirt is long and flow-y. I like the drama of the longer skirt, but I do feel that for the bedroom, it's a little long. This could be worn for an adult Halloween costume if you choose. For intimate play, I prefer to have something a bit more promiscuous. I've been thinking about trimming the edge of it to be more to my liking, but it would be hard to hem because of the material and I don't want to ruin the quality of it. It hasn't been a hinderance and my boyfriend seems to like it just fine, so I'm content to live with it.
