Fasten Your Seat Belts!
The Frisky Flight Attendant set is a nice take on the uniform craze, without being too cliché or boring. It should fit a fairly wide range of women and has the added bonus of being able to be worn over underwear. I am really disappointed in how 'low-flying' the skirt was on me, but perhaps larger ladies will have better luck in that department.

Pros
Unique pale blue colour, actually seems to fit many different sizes well, sexy overall look.
Cons
When the garters were clipped onto stockings the skirt was pulled down, cheap looking neck-tie.
To set the scene for this review, I'll let you know that I'm roughly 5'4" and very petite, an XS usually, which often makes it risky to purchase 'one size fits all' outfits like this one. I was pleasantly surprised at the fit of top and skirt, though they aren't perfectly form-fitting and figure hugging. Instead, this is a set capable of catering to many different types of bodies and thus shaped a bit oddly in places and sitting a little strangely sometimes, to compensate for our differences. So, past that fact of 'one size fits all' clothing, I think this set does well. To be thorough, I also tried this set on with a white bra and matching underwear on underneath and I'm happy to report it looked great. In fact, I preferred this to the see-through look! I love the pale blue colour, as it makes a real change from the typical black/white/red/pink looks and also compliments all different hair colours beautifully! This, combined with the sassy and unique take on the uniform craze, makes this a really neat and inexpensive set for those keen to try out costume play. Yet, to give you a full run down on the set I've divided the review up to give you my thoughts on each piece individually.
Top:
The top is made of a silky satin blue trim, with a see-through nylon mesh cup which your nipples can peek through. However, be warned that there is no underwire, so those ladies with bigger breasts may find this to be a problem. In fact, I prefer it with a bra underneath to give me a bit of support and definition. I didn't find the material to be at all itchy or uncomfortable and the sleeves sat nicely in place with no annoying sliding or twisting during wear. The top has a row of four vertical hooks at the back for security and three different horizontal sets to adjust the tightness. It's a little hard to say what sizes this top would fit given my lack of talent for estimation and the fact that the satin itself has a bit of give. Yet, I am about a 32C cupsize, perhaps a little larger given that bra sizes here in Australia are different to those in the US, but it fitted me quite nicely on the tightest setting. I think it could happily accommodate women up to about a 36 in terms of the band size and would probably suit a medium cup size best.
Skirt:
This piece of the costume is one that frustrated me the most. I love garter belts and stockings and have two entire drawers dedicated to my obsession, so I was really looking forward to wearing some cute pale-blue thigh highs (also from Leg Avenue) to top off this set. Sadly, this dream proved to be a total fantasy! The garter clips worked perfectly well, they are of the typical slip and pull through kind you'd see on most store bought garter belts, but the straps themselves were not adjustable and were made out of a very strong elastic. This meant that when they were clipped to stockings, the whole skirt was pulled down to practically mid-mons on me! I accept that this is partially because I'm rather small, so the skirt didn't sit snugly on my waist, but I'd be surprised if most women did't have a bit of trouble with the strong downwards pull of the elastic garters with thigh-highs. The skirt is not adjustable, but the back is elastic, so you have plenty of give. It measures about 13.5" flat across completely unstretched, but will reach all the way out to 17".
Hat:
This is a cute little satin hat with a gold sort of brocade trimming and a nice shape to it once you pop it up out of the packet. It sat neatly on my head and seeing as you don't really pull it down onto your crown, the size is pretty much irrelevant and should fit pretty much everyone. It stays put relatively well on its own, but you could slip a couple of bobby-pins in to hold it firmly.
Necktie:
This part of the costume is pretty much just a long tapered piece of blue satin ribbon which you tie in a knot around your neck. It makes a nice accent piece, but it isn't anything fancy or thick, so you need to tie it carefully to ensure doesn't look odd.
Cleaning/Materials:
Your best bet for this set is to hand wash it and then let it gently drip dry. The package says it is made of nylon, but I'm fairly sure the satin parts and trims would be made of some different materials, yet this shouldn't affect the cleaning process.

Experience
As I've mentioned in the review, I was sorely disappointed that the skirt didn't sit well on me when the garters were in use, which somewhat ruined the overall look of the costume. Without stockings it looks a bit bare, but it's still sexy and cute and something quite different to your usual lingerie fare. I'm sure I'll continue to have fun playing the sassy flight attendant for a while yet...any keen passengers or pilots out there?!
