When this hot little number arrived today, I had to try it on right away. It was so comfortable I wore it all day! After a few hours, I snapped a few pictures to send to my husband at work, and when he saw the pictures, he couldn't wait to come home! This has turned my husband, who usually does not see a point in things like this, into a big fan of sexy underthings!

At first I was a little skeptical, since I am a bigger girl and things like this usually do not fit me well. This is well made and fits perfectly without looking or feeling awkward. I ordered a large, which is what the sizing chart recommended, and it it perfectly. The plastic boning is very flexible and comfortable while wearing it for extended periods of time. The two rows of 16 hook and eye closures down the back allow the size to be changed by about half an inch depending on the row of hooks you use (like a typical bra closure, only 16 instead of 2 or 3). There are no other closures to this garment, no lacing or zippers. The black elastic shoulder straps also allow the garment to be sized to fit your bust size better.

The black nylon and spandex lace panels along the front sides of the garment are stretchy and form fitting without being constrictive. They provide a nice accent to the sheer red nylon and spandex mesh of the middle panel, cups, and back of the garment, giving a slimming look. The underwire is well placed for comfort and shaping but does not provide much support, and the cups fit well. The cups are the same sheer red mesh with no padding or support. They do create a sexy, alluring look, though, with a full figure bust line. I did not feel like I was popping out of the cups and I wear a 38DD.

The optional black garters are easy to add and remove to achieve the look you are going for. The black lace edge gives the garment an elegant look of delicacy and added femininity. The lace lines the bottom hem, which grazes the top of the backside in the back and the very tips of the hips in front, as well as the tops of the bra cups, with a small black silk bow where the cups meet in the front. For added comfort, the under arm area is trimmed in black elastic instead of the frilly lace. The red mesh of the body of the garment add to the holiday theme of the garment.

It is easy to wash, a simple hand wash in the sink in cold water works well, just rinse it out with a very mild detergent and lay it flat to dry fully. The clothing tag, which is the only packaging for this garment, indicates that it should not be machine washed. This can be worn under other clothing without anyone realizing what you have on. There is a small tag sewn into the garment right under the left arm, which can be snipped out with scissors without ruining the garment if it becomes bothersome. This tag's only information is the size, materials (nylon and spandex), and instructions to hand wash only.

Pair the garment with black thigh highs with the garters attached, black or red thong or g-string, and simple black heels for a very sexy holiday look.
