Gathered mesh teddy - teddy discontinued by Coquette - review by Timaree

I suspected I would have some problems with this teddy because, as a Boobless Wonder, I need all the help I can get looking busty. This little number would probably be quite provocative and sexy for someone with medium sized boobs. For someone with large breasts, it would be a potential problem holding the girls back with just the tiny string in the back and the sheer force of willpower. But I don't know that for certain.

As I said, my experience was as a girl with a flat chest. This did nothing for me except make me look like a pre-pubescent. I stood there, with frilly laces all down my front and skirting around my hips and looked not unlike a very little girl in a scandalously small swimsuit. There is no shape to the cups, simply material that lays flat against your body and is tied back with a string. It shows off my torso and back spectacularly, but presses down what little I have in the front.

Problems pertaining to my unique anatomy were not the only concern. The bit of fabric meant to act like a g-string is laughably small. It's not nearly wide enough to actually cover the lips of the vulva for any substantive amount of time or any movement beyond standing coyly. One need not have large labia for this to be a concern, any amount will be enough to get exposed if you move even the slightest.

Now granted, maybe that's fine for your purposes. If you want to flash a little lip, then you're all set. But there's not enough room to move the fabric to the side comfortably for penetration. Not unless you buy a very large size and are a very small person. If it fits you through the rest of the body, your girly bits will be strapped in tight but flopping out: an uncomfortable combination. If you don't believe me, take a look at the closeup shot on the mannequin's crotch in the pictures of this piece.

But otherwise the outfit is totally cute. The ruffles are adorable, the skirt is ridiculously girly and flirt and the tiny size means you can show off nearly your entire body. If you've got the body confidence, you'll be digging how it displays the entire back side, the majority of the sides, the entire legs and most of the chest and torso. Because it is held up by strings, the tightness is entirely adjustable, making it able to fit a wide variety of upper bodies. Although, again, I don't know how strong of a knot you'd need to make to hold back a big pair of knockers.

Still awkward. I keep thinking that when I'm having a "thin day" or whatever, it'll be right. But no. It's just awkward on my frame. Definitely built for a specific type.
