Red off the shoulder babydoll - babydoll and panties set by DreamGirl - review by WhoopieDoo

Came in a little box. Nice and simple. The set includes a babydoll and a thong. I immediately ripped the box apart and tried the set on......but something was wrong......



WHAT?! A tiny part of the edge of the top was sewn to a tiny part of the fabric where my right boob was supposed to go.....ok, this is the type of idiot thing I'd do if I tried to make my own lingerie. That's why I buy it instead of make it. Whatever, I was able to use a seam ripper to fix it, and now I can't even tell where it was. I'm reasonably certain that "being sewn to itself" doesn't come standard with this babydoll (that is, I'm sure most people won't have this problem), but I couldn't overlook that it had happened to mine, and I knocked it down a whole star for this reason.

I WOULD HAVE GIVEN THIS FIVE STARS HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR THIS. Moving on, after I fixed it....



Here's the babydoll, laid out. Notice that the bust area isn't as tall as it looks on the product page. I actually prefer it this way, but it seems to be a pretty big difference. Thought it was worth pointing out that there's much less coverage with the actual product. It's even more noticeable on the pics with me wearing it.
The underbust band is the part of the babydoll with the least amount of give. When putting it on(you can put it on over your head or pull it up like a skirt), I recommend the path of least resistance (whichever is smaller between your bust and your hips). If the smallest is 43 - 45 inches, it might be difficult to put the babydoll on without the underbust band giving you some grievance. If the path of least resistance is over 45 inches, this may be rather difficult to get on. My bust and hips both measure 42 inches, and it took very little effort on my part to make sure I didn't damage the underbust band.



I'd also like to note that the red is a warmer red than it appears on the product page.



There's a cute little bow on each sleeve. Also, this pic represents the actual color of the babydoll best.



I don't have a pic of me wearing just the thong, but it fits almost exactly like the thong from my Oh so sweet garter chemise review.



SO MUCH DIFFERENCE. I CAN'T EMPHASIZE THAT ENOUGH.




DreamGirls Queen One Size (what I'm wearing):
Size 16-20
Cup D-DD
Bust 40-54
Waist 36-44
Hips 42-56
Weight 165-275

Me
Size 16
Cup C
Bust 42
Waist 32
Hips 42
Weight 185

Obviously, the babydoll doesn't mind if the waist is a little smaller than the chart, or if someone is smaller than a D cup, but I don't see how someone would be able to put this on if BOTH their bust AND their Hips were over 50 inches (due solely to the underbust band, as the skirt and bust area would accommodate these measurements).

This can be worn off the shoulder or on the shoulder. I prefer off the shoulder, personally. It hides my arm fat somewhat.





This view would be great on someone with an ass.



As is my custom, here is a side view.

90% nylon. 10% spandex. Hand wash in cold water and line dry. I mean it.
