Now, I do not look like the model. My guess is that most of the people also not be in underwear model shape either, so if you are a woman who's graduated from bikinis to sensible one piece swimwear, or feels a little leery about wearing lingerie without much support then this review is for you.

First impressions: The mesh is lightweight and a bright red color. I can definitely see this being appropriate for both the holidays and Valentine's Day. I had to take a moment to sort out which straps were for the arms and which were for the breasts, which the bows helped with. The straps of the garment, the breast cups, and the G-string straps are all made of stretchy elastic. The gauzy mesh material of the babydoll does not stretch as much, but there is some give.

Fit: My B/C cup breasts (yes, I'm a little bigger on one side) found the open cups to be pretty comfortable, mostly because there wasn't much need for the elastic that forms the cup shape to stretch. I think bustier women might find that the straps more restrictive, though, since while they are pretty stretchy there could still be a problem with them digging in.

I usually wear a size Small to Medium in underwear, and found that the G-string fit comfortably and the straps did not cut into my hips.

Overall I found the fit to be better than I'd expected, although I was nervous about wearing an open babydoll with a little bit of a stomach pooch and no support to help keep the girls up. My partner though had no complaints. And the babydoll didn't stay on long enough to become uncomfortable. ;)

Care: I would recommend hand washing only since the material is of a very fine, delicate polyester mesh. The tag says it can be machine washed cold, and if you do so I'd recommend putting it in a delicates mesh bag. You should also avoid romantic candlelit romps in this babydoll, or at least keep far away from the flames as the material is very flammable- the packaging warns to stay away from open flames.

Still love putting this on when we need something a little sexy, and I actually wore it to a play party this past weekend. The set has held up very well, although I've also been careful to only hand wash and lay to dry.
