Peek-A-Boo, I.C Butt
You've got to love pinstripes, which is what really made this a hit for me! And to top it off, DreamGirl add a matching pair of the cutest panties, with frilly lace, that I have seen in awhile. Butt beware, only wear these babies in front of people you don't mind flashing your booty to.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS:
Because I live with others but still love to wear something sexy, I chose this one thinking it was suitable and innocent to wear in front of company.
***Note to self: make sure you actually click on the other images on the product page so you know exactly what you're getting.
Needless to say, I was somewhat disappointed when I pulled it from the packaging and noticed the back.
BRAND & COLOUR:
The Sexy Pinstripe Chemise Set is made in China for one of the top lingerie companies, DreamGirl.
This set comes as a two piece (chemise and panties) which comes in black with thin white pinstripes and pink lacy trimmings. I could see this working with other colour lace trims if DreamGirl branched out in this style.
MATERIAL:
Sexy Chemise is rather stretchy, both in width and length wise. It's made from 95% polyester and 5% spandex which gives it a smooth silky feel against the skin. Across the top of the underwire cups is two rows of elasticized lace with a small pink ribbon bow between the breasts. Down slightly lower is a black mock button with a clear gem setting as a feature. The same lacing, without the elastic backing, lines the hem of the chemise as well as three rows on the back of the panties.
The shoulder straps are black elastic and can be fully adjusted from 8 ¾” up to 17”. These are the same style as a bra and will stay to where they are adjusted to – unlike slippery ribbon straps.
Around the armpit areas and across the back edge of the chemise is finished with some small looped, fancy black elastic. This same elastic completely lines the edges on the panties and becomes the side straps between the front and back panels. There is a cotton panty liner (4 ¼” long) which isn't stitched down across the top edge, so a bullet or clit vibe could easily be held there for some delicious warm up.
FIT:
Although this one has a reasonable amount of ‘give' to the fabric, it will only really stretch about half way down. Unless you bought a larger than your normal size, the bottom half of the chemise will gap open to expose your butt rather than the fabric stretching. This is why the panties are so cute with the rows of lace to show off. This slit runs 12 ½” up the middle of the back from the hem line.
The cups are perfect for DD's and could actually cater for another size up. I went for the 1X/2X because I normally go for an XL when possible. Also, I prefer a looser fit when it comes to this style.
All measurements below are gained by measuring across a flat garment.
CHEMISE:
Chest – underneath cups:
Unstretched: 17 ½”
Stretched: 25”
Waist:
Unstretched: 18 ¼”
Stretched: 28”
Hips:
Unstretched: 22 ½”
Stretched: 35”
Length:
From the top of the cups to the hem unstretched = 25”.
PANTIES:
Waist:
Unstretched: 14 ½”
Stretched: 25 ½”
Top of front panel:
Unstretched: 5 ½”
Top of back panel:
Unstretched: 9 ½”
Width across 2nd lace row:
Unstretched: 7 ¾”
Top front edge to top back edge:
Unstretched: 19”
The side straps of elastic on the panties is thin at just over ¼” in width, so you can imagine how much they dig in when you're of a larger size. They do tend to irritate me after awhile and leave red marks where they cut in.
CLEANING ~ PACKAGING:
The instruction label states to hand wash this in cold water and line dry. I hand wash mine, but may in time throw it into the front loader on a gentle wash. I'll report on this in a follow-up.
The Sexy Chemise arrived neatly folded and wrapped up in some pink tissue paper. For a lingerie piece, this type of packaging does the trick just fine, as I'm not interested in keeping it once the garment has been removed. It's easily disposed of.

Experience
EXPERIENCE:
If the panties fully covered my butt, I wouldn't have a problem wearing this in front of family. They have seen worse! But when you have a full, more than ample, butt going on back there, these panties just aren't going to hide it all. No family member wants to see butt peeking out. They will be super cute when wearing around a partner though. I haven't found them creeping in to create a g-string; it's just that there's not enough fabric so half my cheek on each side is exposed. Perhaps things will be better when I lose weight.
I love bust support in lingerie. Unfortunately they, more times than not, let me down. These ones are more than big enough to contain my DD cups, but they don't exactly give me too much support. My breasts eventually migrate down through the bottom of the underwire. The wires fail to sit under my breasts to give them some boost. So I'm going to actually take some in the bust region on both side seams to tighten the chest up. I'm hoping that will help draw the cups in for a better fit. I'll note in the follow-up as to whether this works or not.
I'd like to give this one a 3 ½ stars cause of the lack of panties and the cup side of things. But I'm sure I'll be able to make the cups work with some alterations.
Because I'm a sucker for pinstripes, it's 4 stars from me.

Follow-up commentary
2 months after original review
I have taken a small dart in at each side under the arms so the chest area fits me better. The cups are now more than supportive and fit perfectly. Having to adjust clothing, particularly lingerie, is nothing new to me. I just don't seem to have the shape any of the companies work towards. Taking the darts in was extremely easy for those who require it. Only took me 2 minutes to stitch on the sewing machine.
I was determind to make this one work, considering it has pinstripes!

Thank you for viewing Sexy pinstripe chemise set – chemise and panty set review page!
It probably would have been better in the chest (as long as my nip tuck plan works) if I'd gone for a L. But my damn hips always let me down and I didn't want it to be hugging my hips (cause I thought it was a normal chemise when I bought it). Still glad I went with the larger so it doesn't gap so much in the back. I'd feel like I had a semi truck poking out back there...lol.
