Criss cross bustier by Leg Avenue - review by GenkiGirl

The Criss Cross Bustier by Leg Avenue is an extremely sexy bustier. As I do with most of my fun lingerie, I do not tell my boyfriend about them and prefer to surprise him when he discovers it himself while he is undressing me. He found the bustier to be very sexy. The thick black crossed lace covers the body in just the right places, while the mesh exposes a bit of skin right between the bottom of the breasts and above the navel. The lace also creates a bondage-like appearance.

One thing that I really liked about this bustier is that the back elastic straps are divided into three different sets of hinges, each set with three hinges on each set. This allows each part (one around the breasts, one around the upper waist, and one around the lower waist just above the hips) to be set at different sizes for best fit. On the photo of the mannequin it shows all three sets placed together to look like a full back; however, the straps are slightly spaced apart and would have to be pulled down a bit in order to look like the photo. This is doable, but I found it to not be as comfortable.

Although there are no under-wires anywhere in the bustier, there are the two long wires down the front and two down the sides. If standing straight they are not noticeable at all and do not create any discomfort, but once sitting, they can definitely be felt digging in a bit. Luckily these wires are quite thin and are not too uncomfortable.

Leg Avenue sizes do seem to run smaller than listed on the size chart. I got this bustier in large, which according to the size chart is a C-cup, 36-38 bust, 27-29 waist, and 38-40 hip. However, around the bust it seemed a bit too small. Luckily, the product is made to be very elastic and stretched nicely.

One big problem I did have with this bustier was having it stay in place. It did a lot of sliding from side to side as well as sliding down. This could be related to the bust area being a bit tight and not actually a problem with the bustier.

Overall, I do like this bustier. It is super sexy and quite comfortable. Aside from the size running a bit small, this bustier is definitely a great addition to any lingerie collection.
