I Feel Like a Candy Girl!!
This striped bikini set is no bikini for beach wear (it's totally sheer), but is a super-cute and inexpensive addition to anyone's lingerie collection. The bright colors are fun, the fabric is soft and sheer. It's a sexy combination!

Pros
Cute colors, great price, sheer and sexy!
Cons
Cheap construction, easily snags/runs, might not fit everyone.
"Whoa! Sexy!!" That's what I thought when I first saw this set on EF, and I think it even MORE SO now that I have it in my hands! For the price, you can't beat this cute four-piece set, which includes a bikini top, bottom, and stockings. The material is delicate and sheer (almost like thin stockings or tights), so this obviously isn't an investment piece, but it sure is a lot of fun! The nylon/polyester material is very delicate. Hand wash and air dry this outfit, and be careful not to snag it. It will snag very easily, but for less than $15 each, you could buy two and have a spare!
The colors differ slightly from the model photo. The mannequin photos are a better representation of the color. In real life, the pink is a day-glo pink (much brighter than the photo)that I just LOVE for fun lingerie of all types. The yellow is much deeper (more mustard, and less candy-colored) than it is in the picture as well. Overall, the effect is fun, flirty, young, and yes, it makes me think of CANDY! I have read many different reviews on this set, and some people like the fabric, some people hate it. I love it. It's a soft matte knit, it feels great and looks great on. It is sheer enough to show nipples, pubes, and labia, which can be very appealing. I can imagine that this might look extra sexy when wet as well.
The halter string bikini top doesn't provide much support due to the flimsy material, but I would think that the top can be adjusted and arranged to fit most average-size breasts. I hoisted it up enough to hold my small B's just fine (and have them looking "amazing," according to my man!), but without restricting their movement. Expect to see and feel your breasts bouncing or jiggling in this cute set. If you are very busty, then this "one size" might not work for you. There is just no real support here, but the triangles can be adjusted along the string, covering up to 5" wide. The triangles taper to a point over 20" later to be tied behind the neck in true sexy halter style.
The bottom is also a string-bikini style thong. The strip of the unlined sheer fabric (around 4" wide) is tied on each hip with the pink cording just as the top is tied in the back. Adjust this to fit, but again if you're plus size this might not work for you.
The stockings fit me just fine, and I'm 5'6". I've read many complaints about them being too tall, too short, too saggy, etc. I had none of those problems. The toe is not reinforced. The 1" top band works well to hold these stockings up without being constricting or causing a muffin top.
Overall this is an inexpensive but cute set. It's not super-well made, but for the price, it's a steal!

I can't say enough how much I love this little set! It's cute, lightweight, inexpensive, and quite sexy! It's put away for the winter now, but I expect to break it out as soon as the weather is warm again!

Thank you for viewing Striped top and bikini set – bra and panty set discontinued review page!
I think this also best fits average-size people, which could be some of the bad reviews. I truly thoroughly enjoy this. It fits well, is comfortable AND sexy (hard to find combo) and is inexpensive.
