Padded underwire lace cami set - camisole set discontinued by Leg Avenue - review by WanderlustinGypsy

I absolutely love the way this set looks. The hot pink satin feels amazing against my skin, and looks stunning against the black lace. I also think it is built really well. Especially the garter straps. They are thick, and made of a heaver metal than most sets I have gotten before. I have had issues in the past with garter sets having cheap plastic or flimsy aluminum buckles, which for one, look tacky, and for two, get broken easily. I have actually had plastic ones melt on me in the dryer before, which is not cool at all. The straps are anchored very securely, and I do not think they will come un-stitched. They are also placed properly, They will run straight down the front of your leg, unlike others where I have had the issue of them twisting or going to the side.

I feel that the bra could have been made a little better. It was in this area that the set did not fit me right, and I ordered the set by measurements, not by size. I did my homework, so to speak, and it still was too small. The cups are made of a pretty cheap flimsy foam, and a big uncomfortable seam runs straight down the middle on the inside, right over my nipples, and I find this very irritating. Also, this is the only part where instead of stitching it on the outside, they for some reason decided to stitch the tulle on the inside of the bra, and this is very irritating. See, on the straps, they stitched it on the outside, and t does not irritate my shoulders, like it does my breasts.

I was really upset with the sizing on this outfit. After all too many occasions of buying a set and having to return it, I decided to do the right thing, and go off the measurements, and not the size I normally wear in undergarments. I measured perfectly, and came up within the measurements for the 1X/2X, I will say I was on the higher end of the measurements, but still too small for the 3X/4X, but the ones they had listed. Still, when the article came in, and I tried it on, it was way too tight around my bust line, especially in the back across my shoulder blades. I can fit into it, but my breasts spill over, and I am scared that some of the side paneling lace will start to rip on me. I really wish this would have fit me properly, because it was not in stock anymore for me to buy a size up.
