Diamond net strapped mini dress - gown by Music legs - review by married with children

Lets start with the packaging. This shows up in a thin cardboard envelope. The packaging is only good for shipping. It does not work well for storage. The packaging has a model on the front wearing the dress. She is also on the back of the package showing off her back side. There is not much info included on the package. It has some small symbols showing how to care for it, and the size range that the dress will fit. That is about all the info included with this dress. You don't really need much info with a product like this, but I always like too much info then not enough. The dress is wrapped around a thin cardboard insert.

As far as cleaning this goes, the only instructions included were some drawings. I am not 100% sure what the drawings are telling me, but I will tell you my guesses anyway. This is a hand wash only item. You also will need to drip dry this on a hanger or clothes line. Also do not iron this. Luckily for us, this does not look like something our kids might get the wrong idea about, so we can hang this up to dry. A lot of my wife's lingerie outfits that are only drip dry, are not something we want the kids to see hanging up in the house. But with this, it just looks like some socks or something when it is just clumped up on the hanger.

We have washed and dried this once. It washed pretty well. It did not lose any color and fade. The threads also did not start to come apart. I feel this will hold up well with proper care.

This is a one size fits all piece of lingerie. Music legs states that this will fit someone between 100 pounds and 175 pounds, and someone between 5' and 5' 10". My wife is about 5' 4" and 120 pounds. She slides in on the lower end of the sizing chart. It is kind of tight on her, so those who are on the top end of the sizing chart might want to stay away from this one, unless you enjoy tight fitting lingerie.

This is made from a mixture of Nylon and Spandex. It is 88% Nylon and 12% spandex. The spandex gives the material a soft feel. There is no itchy scratchy feel to this. My wife hates lingerie that leave her all scratchy. I did not notice any bad stitching on this, the quality all seamed to be high quality.

The dress has three shoulder straps on each side. I am not sure why three are needed, and with how tight this dress was on my wife; she did not need any of the straps to hold it on. The dress shown on the model, shows it almost half way between the crotch and her knee's. In real life, it does not sit this low. I was just under my wife's crotch, by maybe 2 inches. There is also a band running along the bottom, and on the neck line. They do not really add anything to the dress, at least in my opinion.

Overall I was not too impressed with this dress. It did not fit my wife very well. It was way too tight for her. And like stated above, she is on the lower end of the sizing chart. So if anything, it should have been lose on her rather then tight. She had a hard time getting this on. And once it was on, she was uncomfortable moving around with it on. Plus I had a very hard time taking it off of her without it hurting her. I also noticed that this left some indents on her skin from the tightness. They were gone in less then 5 minutes, so that was not that big of a deal. But that should give you a idea of the tightness of this dress.

I purchased two of these, one in black and one in red. So I am a little disappointed that they did not fit better. We will be keeping them, they just wont be used as often as I had hoped they would be. I think that the design is pretty cute. Pare it with a sexy pair of panties and its a hot look.

We are still not a fan of this dress. It really has not been used much since the original review was written. It is ok, just not what we were expecting. We have washed it 1 or 2 times in the past 2 months. And it has held up fine in the wash. Of course we have used a lingerie bag to wash it.
