Cute, But Disappointing (Large)
This set is cute on the model, but in person? It was huge disappointment. The bra cut into me in a way that was uncomfortable, and the quality on the rest of the set is questionable. At least the garter skirt is cute, but for $33.99? This isn't a good buy.

Pros
Garter skirt is cute, Stretchy, Cute color combination
Cons
Seams on bra, No bust support, Lots of loose threads, Plastic garters, Garters aren't adjustable
In a world where the colors black and red seem to take over the lingerie, it was nice to find such a unique set. The ivory coloring of skirt, with the lavender accents... it just screams of sweetness! While being sweet and innocent in appearance, it's also unbelievably sexy.
Sadly, however, only part of this sweet set was a keeper for me.
The Basics:
Escante brings us this adorable little set. The set includes four different items; the garter skirt (with attached garters), the bra, the g-string, and a pair of nude thigh high pantyhose.
What's it made out of?:
The garter skirt, bra, and g-string are primarily made out of the same materials. The main body of the set (the white material) is made out of 91% Nylon and 9% Elastane. The purple lace on the skirt and bra, however, is made out of 88% Nylon and 12% Elastane.
The material on this set is extremely sheer; it leaves absolutely nothing to the imagination. On the product page, it appears that the white is opaque, with only the purple lace being transparent. This is not the case at all; both the white and the purple are very transparent. In fact, the white portion of the piece is actually a very fine mesh.
Along with being sheer, the material is also very thin. The thinness of the material makes it very breathable. If you're looking for lingerie to wear on a hot night, this would be a good choice.
All in all, the material does feel durable. I don't believe it'll snag or rip easily. That being said, the material is not high quality. The edging on the purple lace is not finished, and I feel like it'll fray very quickly.
You should also know that the material on the set is very stretchy, so this set (especially the garter skirt) should fit slightly larger than the size chart recommends.
The garter straps on the skirt appear to be made out of a thick elastic. They feel and look a bit cheap, in my opinion.
Comfort wise, I have mixed feelings on the material. On the one hand, the garter skirt is extremely comfortable against my skin. On the other, the material on the bra straps itches and is uncomfortable for me to wear for even short periods of time. Interestingly, however, the included g-string is very comfortable, despite the fact that the straps are made out of the same material as the bra straps.
What about the hose, you ask? The pantyhose are made out of 100% Nylon. They're cheap, thin, and honestly? Throwaways. They ran almost instantly, so I'd recommend that you purchase your own pair of pantyhose to go with this set.
How do you care for it?:
To care for every piece of this set, it is recommended that you hand wash it in cold water. You should then allow it to line dry. If you do need to bleach this, use only non-chlorine bleach.
That being said, I do feel that this set could survive a trip through the delicate cycle of your washing machine. If you do choose to run this through the machine, use a lingerie bag to protect the delicate fabric.
How does it fit?:
Escante has made this number available in three different sizes; small, medium, and large. I purchased the large.
According to the size chart, a large should fit someone with the following measurements:
Cups: C-D
Bust: 36-38"
Waist: 32-34" (though irrelevant to the set).
Hips: 34-36"
I wear a large C/small D cup most of the time, and my hips are 40". I expected the skirt to be a bit small, but I figured I'd give it a chance. I was happy to find that every item fits, though I was disappointed to discover that the bra really isn't meant for busty girls (more about that in the design section). The garter skirt and the thong fit me very comfortably.
Here are some measurements that I took with each piece laying flat:
Bra band, unclasped: 28 (unstretched)
Garter skirt, across the waistband: 14" (unstretched), 21.5 (stretched)
Garter skirt, length (from top hemline to bottom): 8"
G-string, across the waistband: 14.5" (unstretched), 25" (stretched)
I would recommend this item to girls that are a B to small C cup. If you have wide hips, no problem! The skirt and thong will stretch to accommodate you, but design flaws make this piece questionable for bustier women.

Experience
What's the design like?:
Let's begin with the bra. The bra has your basic hook and eye closure. There are three closure settings, so you can pick the one that is most comfortable to you. The bra also features thin straps that go in a crisscross pattern across the back. The straps are not detachable, but they are adjustable. To put the bra on, you need to slip the straps over your head, and then fasten the closure.
The front of the bra is covering (though sheer); this isn't the sort of bra you wear if you're hoping for amazing cleavage.
The bra has three seams going down the front of it. The middle seam is okay, but the lavender seams that go down each "cup"? I hate those seams! Those two seams pretty much cut my breasts in half, making it look and feel very awkward.
Next on the bra, we have the lavender trim. the lavender trim goes all along the edges of the bra, and then of course there is the lavender lace at the bottom. The lace portion is supposed to lay flat, but if you're busty that lace bit is likely just going to be covered by the weight of your breasts. That's right, this item offers the girls no support!
Now, the garter skirt. The garter skirt is my favorite item of the set, but it's not perfect.
I love that the garter skirt is a mini, allowing my bottom to peak out of it. My guy finds that look to be very sexy, after all. I also love that the skirt is layered, with two pieces of white fabric. I feel that the layered look gives it a very whimsical feel. Oh, and how I adore the purple waistband!
So what don't I love about the skirt, you ask? I don't love the garters. The garters are attached, and they're not adjustable. Measuring nearly 9" long, the garter straps are likely to be too long for many people. I also really dislike the garter clasps themselves; they're made out of a very flexible plastic which feels like it will snap easily.
Last but not least, there is the g-string. The g-string is your basic g-string; there's not a lot to say about it. One thing that I do love about this basic g-string is that it has a cotton pantyliner, making it suitable for everyday wear. The cotton pantyliner is sewn shut at one end, so you can easily insert a bullet if you choose to.
Is it a quality set?:
For a $33.99 set, the quality of this set is disappointing. The garter skirt is cute, but it had multiple loose threads, and the garter clasps? Ugh! They feel flimsy, and I feel like they'll break very easily. The loose threads aren't a huge deal, though. What is a huge deal to me is the quality of the bra. The edges of the bra seemed to be fraying right away, and the bra had a few areas where the sewing was just "wonky".
If this set cost $19.99, I wouldn't be complaining; but for $33.99? I expected better.
All in all, I'm giving this set 2 stars, primarily because I love the garter skirt as much as I do.

Follow-up commentary
2 months after original review
I just really don't care for this one.
I can't get past the poor quality, and the lack of bust support. I have heard from others that they've liked it though, so perhaps it's just my rotten luck.
