I love butterflies, so needless to say, when I saw these, I had to have them. They looked ADORABLE on me. They are very flattering to lots of body styles, and lots of figures. The elastic is very stretchy, but it stays in place very well. And unlike most thongs that have the skinny sides like that, it didn't really make the indents in my skin. This is truly one product where one size DOES fit all. The mesh part in the back is flattering. Not very many butts look good in a G-string, so I prefer to have the back side of a thong be a little wider like this. The crotchless part of it stays in place very well also, and provides for very easy access. However, I suggest you take them off for any intercourse position that requires friction where the butterfly is, because the sequins get damaged or rip off.

I realize that they are not that expensive, but you definitely get what you pay for with this product. Within a couple of washes, the butterfly was floppy and didn't hold the exquisite shape that it had held before. And the sequins melted and lost their luster in the dryer.

Had I not taken the tag off (who wants tags on their lingerie?), I could have double checked to see if they were hand wash only, which they probably were. If it doesn't say that, I recommend you do it anyways. And air dry them as well. It would have extended the life of the butterfly, but the inevitable would have happened eventually anyways.

They are cute! But if you want to have them for a long time, buy more than one pair! For the low price, it's worth the novelty of the product, but it's definitely not something that is going to be in your lingerie collection for the long term.

I never wore them again after I washed them a few times. They started looking very ratty and yucky and weren't sexy looking at all.
