Intrigued but Disappointed
I love the sexy look of the outfit, but was disappointed with the actual size of the product. For petite women this product is great.Published: March 20, 2010
Pros:
The material is red and bows add a sexy touch.
Cons:
The sizing was misleading, and really should be labeled small.
I was very excited when this came in the mail. The Bow Mesh Cami with G String made by Coquette is very pretty and the bows are a great detail. The mesh material is extremely soft, and the cami is a great length allowing a generous peek at the g string. The red and black mesh material stretches slightly to contour to the body's curves. The cami has adjustable straps and tasteful ruffles around the bust line. I can see how the colors and design would flatter any skin tone. This outfit definately sets a sexy tone, and promises to please any partner.
Unfortunately, the sizing on this product is very misleading. The "one size fits most" apparently doesn't apply to me. I wasn't able to get it over my head. I normally wear a size 10 to 12, but I don't see how a woman larger than an 8 could possibly fit this comfortably. I would actually describe the size to be more of a small, and would fit a more petite woman perfectly. On the other hand the g-string was more appropriately sized. I think that most woman up to a large size would find these to be comfortable and feel attractive in them.
I think to improve this particular product, they could add corset straps to the back of the outfit. This would allow woman of varying size an opportunity to contour the cami to their specific body type. It would change the appearance of the back of the product but I imagine that it would be extremely sexy. Pleasing women of all sizes and shapes would ensure this product's success. I have high hopes for this camisole. I would absolutely love to give it a serious test run. I know if the size was right I would feel absolutely amazing and sexy.
I think the pricing was very reasonable,and the set was packaged well. I've received lingerie in the past that was thrown haphazardly together, but was pleasantly surprised this time around.

This is a great outfit; unfortunately, the sizing was an issue for me. I hope to fit in it someday so I can surprise my husband with some hot loving. Fingers crossed!!

From my experience, this brand runs really small. If you're under 160lbs then one size should fit you. If you're even 161lbs then go with the plus size. I'm right at 160lbs and most of their one size fit all outfits are really tight on me.

Why is the Size so Off?
-
Reviews I've read on this set say that it doesn't work well for larger sizes. Would you want to review a product (lingerie) that might not fit, and doesn't have a guarantee? Would it be worth the try, or would you feel as though your money had gone down the toilet?
-
Who says it doesn't have a guarantee? I've bought lingerie here that was sized incorrectly and they took it back, and gave me a refund.

It definitely makes trying things out that you're not entirely sure about (such as sizing issues) much easier.

Thank you for viewing Bow mesh cami with g-string – camisole set review page!



That sucks that it didn't fit you
I'm not a fan of "one size fits most" myself. Nice review!
This is super cute! I'm not crazy about one size fits most either.
Good review!
That stinks that it didn't fit! Good review, though!
It looks amazing, shame it didn't fit!
Next time maybe consider adding some measurements from the set itself?
I love the quality of things from Coquette, but their "one size" are very unflattering for those with smaller boobies. This set does look so adorable, and the only thing holding me back from buying it was the fact that the last one size Coquette piece I got was really loose in the bust. Nice review
I would wait to do your follow until you have new info to add....like how it held up in the wash, if something needed to be altered, or broke, or melted (I seriously has a pair of panties MELT around the elastic!).
*follow up
We have a couple of Coquette products and love them, but we have learned to order up a size
Good review.
I second the request for measurements, it seems- from all the reviews I've read on Coquette things- that they run a bit large. But I guess the "one size fits most" epidemic could hamper that quick!
Thanks for the review , this is a very gorgeous piece.
I really wish lingerie companies would stop with the "one size fits most" and at least do s/m/l/xl!
thanks for the review
i'm pretty small so it might fit me. hmm
WISH IT WOULD FIT ME!
WIsh it would fit me too girl!
