Turquoise lace panty and bra set - bra and panty set discontinued by Espiral - review by BlackxxxRose

The Turquoise Lace Panty and Bra Set by Espiral is a wonderfully soft and comfortable piece. It's the perfect set for a comfortable night in and would even be suitable for sleeping in. Both pieces are all over, soft lace that hug the body just so without pinching or squeezing.

The Bra:
The top piece of this set is made of two pieces of lace, seamed at the side with stretchy straps that hold it up. This piece isn't adjustable at all: there's no hooks on the back and the straps aren't adjustable. This doesn't detract from the quality of the piece though. If anything, it makes it more comfortable and perfect for sleeping in. There are no underwires so this piece fits more like a training bra, sleep bra or bralette.

For a pregnant woman going into her second trimester, this piece has been a god-send. It's so stretchy that I don't have to worry about outgrowing it in a week (like my last two bras!) and it's soft enough that it doesn't irritate or scratch anywhere. The lack of hooks helps with preventing any pinching, binding or bunching as well.

The Panty:
I haven't actually worn the panty yet, but it feels incredibly soft and I have a very strong feeling I'm going to love it as much as the bra once I get it washed. It's designed as a boy short style, with all over lace to match the bra and has a small cotton hygienic crotch on the inside over the lace. It is a very simple, but soft and flattering piece.

Materials and Washing Directions:
The bra and panty are both made of 96% Nylon and 4% Elastano. There are no written washing directions, but the picture symbols indicate hand washing only, line dry, do not iron or bleach. Both pieces have the same symbols in regards to washing directions.

Overall Opinion:
This set isn't something meant for daily wear or support. They are designed to be worn in the bedroom or as a sleep set. They're incredibly soft and I'm in love with the color and feel. My partner loves the color as well and thinks it is very flattering. I love that I can wear the bra without feeling bound and pinched anywhere. I can wear it under sweaters and go out without worrying about flashing my headlights at everyone or not being able to breathe. I can't wait to be able to wear this set in the summer when it's hot and humid out and I need something breathable.

I originally purchased this set in Medium (forgot to add that in my original review) and it still fits very well. I was ~140lbs and only 4 months pregnant when I first got this piece and I'm now ~160lbs and going into my third trimester.

I still find the bralette to be really comfortable and great for my quickly expanding bust. I have high hopes that I'll be able to keep wearing the bralette after baby comes, as a soft and non-binding alternative to maternity and nursing bras that can be difficult to snap/un-snap in a hurry.

Surprisingly the panties have kept up with my butt and weight gain and still fit really well without pinching, riding up anywhere or sagging. They're comfortable and make an excellent sleeping option when I need something that doesn't bind or suffocate at night when I'm having trouble getting comfortable and staying cool.

I'm really looking forward to being able to sleep in this set as pjs during the summer months when it's humid and hot outside and expensive to keep the ac running all night.
