Bonjour cami and boyshort set - camisole set discontinued by Seven 'til Midnight - review by connies7388

Seven til Midnight designed several, white lingerie pieces that are great for June brides. I chose their two piece cami and boyshort set in a size 1X/2X. I don't have an explanation, but it seems to me that all the lingerie I have ordered from Eden runs on the small side. My measurements are at the very low 1X size and this fits, but clearly I could easily wear the next size up.

The size chart lists (for the 1X/2X) a bust of 40-46 D/DD; a waist meansurement of 36"-38" and hips of 42"-48". I am a 38D; with a waist of 34" and hips of 40". With my measurements, and the numbers on the size chart, I should fit perfectly, with some room to spare. That is so not the case. For plus size women, unless you are my size or maybe 2" larger, run, don't walk, away from this one.

I am 5'3" tall and find these pieces pretty short. At the center front of the cami, the top is only 8.5" long. The boyshorts are 5". I know that 5" sounds like alot for the side of panties, and if you are used to thongs or G-strings it is, but for regular panties, these are short.

The top has elastic, adjustible straps. The triangular-shaped cups are pretty flat and made of soft, net-like, floral lace. There is no underwire. The lower part of the top is a sheer nylon with four 3" ruffles sewn on at even intervals. On me, it reaches just below my natural waistline. It would look snug, but the ruffles cover that nicely, and because of the stretchy nature of the fabric, it works well.

The waist of the boyshorts is a strip of 1.75" stretchy lace. I am really at the low end of the size range, and these are comfortably loose, but not too large. I think they fit just as they should. For larger women, the panties will probably fit 2 sizes up from me, but they will just be a bit more fitted. I don't think anything will dig or be too tight.

Like most lingerie, this nylon/spandex set is hand washable in cold water. The company says to hang it out to dry, and even though it is white, do not use chlorine bleach. Like most lingerie, I put it in a delicates pouch and wash it in the machine. I leave it in the pouch and machine dry this. It comes out a little wrinkled, but after hanging in the closet a day or so, the wrinkles disappear. I am sure you know that chlorine bleach causes yellowing to nylon lingerie.

I still like this but it has not survived the washing machine very well. The rows on the cami need to be re-sewn in place and it wrinkles easily if you are not careful when it comes out of the washer. I would still buy it again because it is so cute and sexy!
