When I saw that I could get a 30% discount on this piece, I just couldn't resist.

Now that I have it... I wear it sometimes, but it's not one of my go-to bras. Rather, it's something I'll grab for a special night, as it is certainly a very sexy piece.

What's Included:
This two piece set comes with a the lightly padded bra, and the matching panties. This set does not include a hanger, but that's not really an issue for me as I don't hang up my bras and panties.

Material and Care:
This set is made out of 100% nylon.

Most of the lace on both pieces is backed with a cream colored fabric. The cream colored fabric is very soft against my skin. The lace itself is also very soft; just not as soft as the cream colored fabric. Still, the lace on the back of the panties (where there is no cream fabric backing) is extremely comfortable, and not at all itchy.

The ruffle trim on the panties and the bra feels slightly rougher than the lace does. Still, I don't find myself getting irritated by the ruffle, even with wearing both pieces for an extended period of time.

You should also know that the material on both pieces is very stretchy.

As for washing, the tag recommends using the delicate cycle to machine washing both pieces on warm, and then tumble drying them on low. It's not recommend to wring or twist either pieces.

I was really surprised to see it recommended to machine was these, as the lace looks delicate, and the bra has underwire. Still, pretty cool that Fantasy Lingerie says that you can, right? Anyway, I personally opted to machine wash the panties, and hand wash the bras. Both pieces have been washed multiple times, and both pieces still look good.

Sizing:
Fantasy Lingerie has made this piece available in three sizes; small, medium, and large. I decided to purchase the large.

According to the size chart, a large should fit someone with the following measurements:
Bust: 39-41"
Waist: 30 1/2-32 1/2" (not relevant for this piece)
Hips: 42 1/2 - 44 1/2"

In all honesty, I am a little smaller than both of the relevant measurements (bust and hips), but I do have a large C/small D cup, and my bottom has more junk in it than most sets seem to account for; so I felt safer going with the largest size. I'm a little torn on if this was the right choice. On the one hand, the panties fit me well. On the other, the bra is a little loose. It's still wearable, but it doesn't hug my breasts properly, and it's not comfortable for me to wear all day.

To help give you some idea of the sets actual measurements, I took some measurements with the pieces laying flat:

Panties unstretched: 16"
Panties stretched: 21"
Bra unstetched (and unhooked): 29"
Bra stretched (and unhooked): 36"

The cups each measure about 8" across at the widest point, and about 6 1/2" inches going down the center.

My problem with this set is that the bra band is a bit big (even on the smallest setting), and the cups are a bit loose. If the bra band was tighter, I would be able to make this set work for day to day wear, but unfortunately it's not.

Design:
The bra is your basic padded bra. There's not really a lot to it. The cups are what I would describe as being full coverage, yet they do still provide the wearer with great cleavage.

The black floral lace on the cream background makes the bra appear very elegant, and very sexy. The ruffle trim adds to that feeling of elegance and sex appeal.

The straps on the bra are completely adjustable. As for the bra closure itself -- it has your basic hook closure system. There are two hooks, and three rows of eyelets.

The panties match the bra completely in front, but in the back there is a little surprise. That surprise is that the back of the panties are transparent. My guy finds this to be a very sexy look.

As for the pantyliner? I was disappointed to find that there was none. This is one reason that I reserve this set for special nights.


Packaging:
This piece didn't really come with packaging. There was just a simple hang tag on the bra, and then the piece was wrapped in Eden Fantasy's usual pink tissue paper. Despite being very minimal, it was enough.

Quality:
The quality of this piece is pretty decent. The material, for the most part, feels sturdy. I have pulled and picked at this piece, and the lace still seems to be in perfect shape. The sewing quality also seems to be great.

One area that does concern me, however, is the ruffle trim. The ruffle feels very fragile, and I think that it would be really easy to tear that specific area.

I still like this, but not as much.

The ruffle trim did end up tearing after just a few wears. And the bra seems to be stretching out a lot; it just doesn't hug my breasts like I would like it to.

Don't get me wrong, it's a pretty set and I do feel sexy when I wear it (for short time periods only).. I just don't think it's worth the $37.99.
