Flapper fail
This was really disappointing, I was hoping it would hug my body just right and look GOOD. It just ended up looking like a cheap trainwreck. I do not recommend this item to anyone, or maybe at least try it in a
color (instead of black, which is what I chose).

Pros
Good length, color options, adjustable straps.
Cons
The front bunches, is not flattering and is just plain complicated.
First impression was decent, packaging was as expected. Nighty came wrapped in plastic, and definitely had a somewhat strong "chemical/plastic" odor. It is form fitting, so wrinkles in it don't matter at all, they don't show. I do appreciate the adjustable straps, but if they are pulled tight, it looks kind of awkward (like the straps are too thick and not very attractive). The front "V" of the outfit ends up bunching up anytime I moved around, so I was constantly pulling it down.
The material in front is very sheer and appears slightly different in various lighting. The quality of the material seemed fair, but I did end up having to cut off a stray piece of string/fuzz, which makes me wonder if it will not unravel something else? The matching thong was definitely not my style, it had the shape of a maxi pad, yuck. Not very sexy (but I looked at it kinda like a bonus, so I focused more on the lingerie).
I guess one positive aspect is, if you wear this in dim lighting, the outfits flaws may not be very noticeable. Plus, the strings in the back might be kinda fun to pull on, it is a unique texture, not something I'd expect!
Now to get to the back of the outfit. In my opinion, even for sexy lingerie, it looks really trashy. Like you should be swinging around a pole or something. I am in good shape, and this material, both in front & back, just is not flattering at all. It accentuates every little flaw and seems to even create odd shadows and curves I DON'T want. The strings get all tangled and don't look effortless; they look confusing. I haven't attempted washing (by hand, of course) because honestly, I don't wanna deal with the untangling. I can't see myself wearing this item again... too bad, I really wanted to like it. Boo.

It's holding up perfectly. It's not exactly a favorite, but it is comfortable and the husband likes it. I'd prefer something with more shape up top.
