Fence net garter dress black - gartered mini dress discontinued by DreamGirl - review by Breas

The Fence Net Garter Dress by DreamGirl is available in one-size-fits-most and plus size. I had purchased the plus size outfit for myself. The outfit arrived in a cardboard package, surrounded by plastic. The front of the box has an image of a model wearing the outfit and states the company name, outfit size, and colour. The back has another image of the model wearing the outfit and states a brief product description, material composition, care instructions, suggested weight bracket, and company website. The packaging is not ideal for storing the outfit. The packaging can be recycled.



The outfit is 90% nylon and 10% spandex. The material is netted so it can be seen through. Regardless of how much or how little you stretch the material; it’s still going to be seen through. Though, the more you need to stretch the fabric, the wider the spaces between the netting become.

As you can imagine, it’s ridiculously stretchy in both width and length! When you first open the packaging, you’ll see that the outfit has yet to be stretched. It is tiny enough to literally fit a broomstick. For instance, the chest measures 4 ½ inches across before being stretched. That being said, the most important measurements will be the outfit stretched as much as I can. I’ve included both non-stretched and stretched as much as I could measurements below. Also, the outfit was lying flat when I had measured it. If you need any other measurements, please send me a message and I’ll get them for you.

Sleeve length: 15-43 inches
Chest width (right above keyhole): 4 ½- 33 inches
Width of bottom of dress (right above garters): 5 ¾- 31 inches
Length of dress (from shoulder to bottom of dress): 21 ¼- 50 inches
Stocking length: 22 ¼- well over 60 inches

The dress is all black in colour and just one-piece. The garter straps and stockings are not detachable from the outfit. The dress doesn’t come with a matching panty so you’ll need to already own one or purchase one if you want to wear a panty with the outfit. I’d recommend a pair of crotchless underwear or just go commando. It’s a pain in the bum to get out of these one-piece outfits, especially when you and/or your partner are ready to go. I usually just don’t wear underwear beneath the outfit and have sex with it on. It makes things less complicated and my partner loves it.

The lace pattern at the bottom of the outfit is what I really liked about it when I had first seen it. The lace pattern sits around the crotch area of the model but it really depends on how much you stretch it when you’re wearing it. I’ve taken a photo of the lace pattern while the outfit is on my pillow (sorry, I don't take photos of me wearing lingerie that exposes too much).



The garter straps are not adjustable in length, other than by stretching them. Not stretched, they measure 3 ½ inches and can be stretched well over 11 inches. There is a solid black band at the top of each stocking that measures 5/8 of an inch. These bands are 3 ½ inches wide, not stretched, and can be stretched over 17 inches. The rest of the stocking (except the toes) is netting. The toe area of each stocking is reinforced so you don’t have to worry about your toes sticking through the netting.



There is a keyhole cutout right beneath the centre of the chest area. Not stretched, the hole is 4 inches long and less than 1 inch wide. The size of the hole, when you wear the outfit, depends on how much you need to stretch the area. There is no padding or underwire in the chest area of the dress.

The packaging states that the dress would be best suited for those between 165-275lbs. The DreamGirl website states that the “queen” size outfits are best suited for those with a D/DD cup and a hip measurement of 42-56 inches. The last time I checked I was in the high 160’s for weight, my cup size is a C, my bra band is a 38, my hip measurement is 41 ½ inches, and my height is 5’6”. I usually don’t have a problem with outfits like this (the super stretchy ones) if I purchase the OSFM, but if I have the option, I go with the queen size. It just gives me a bit more wiggle room and I always worry that the OSFM may be too tight in certain areas.

Putting the dress on is easy if you know how to. You’ll need to step into the dress (the neck area), and then pull the stockings up your legs, pull the dress up your body, and then put your arms into the sleeves. The length of the dress and stockings was good for me, though there was still quite a bit of stretch in length left. If you’re a bit taller than me, you shouldn’t have an issue with the length of this outfit.

The chest area also fit me comfortably. Since the outfit is so stretchy, you’re able to stretch-to-fit the dress. My C cups were comfortable in the dress and I’m sure an E cup would also be comfortably. There wasn’t any part of the dress that was too tight on me.

The only thing that was bothersome about this dress was the neckline, around the sleeves. Both the top front and back of the dress is “V” cut. There isn’t an actual designated area for your armpits. You have to pull the top of the sleeves to where you want them to sit on your shoulders. The problem I had with this is that the material started to roll off my shoulder any time I moved my arms. It looks great when you’re just standing there (like the model in the stock photo), but once you start moving it wants to roll off your shoulders. I find this terribly annoying.



The material itself is not irritating to the skin. The netting is fairly soft. I didn’t have any issues with the comfort of this dress, other than the rolling material. The quality is "okay". The edges of the outfit have fraying to them and I'm not sure if that will get worse with time. The outfit should be hand washed separately in cold water and line dried. The dress should not be bleached. I’ve deducted two stars from the rating because of the way the dress was cut. It looks great if you’re wearing it and not moving. The second you move, the sleeve material begins rolling off your shoulders. If you’re comfortable with that, you may enjoy this outfit. If this sounds irritating to you, I’d recommend passing on this one.
