Fetish and lace queen - gartered chemise discontinued by Charm Wear - review by LovelyGirl93

Out of the box impressions

Fresh out of the box the packaging is a cute resealable ziplock style bag very similar to many of the others I've received. Which is great for storage if you don't really have the space in a panty drawer or want it to get snagged in the drawer itself. Mine did happen to have the product photo safety pinned to it. Do be careful not to lose it since they are sharp and tiny as well they can rust in the wash if not removed.

Chemise

This Chemise is very cute but has its own flaws especially as a plus size item. The faux leather look is fantastic and sexy, the back of the outfit is mesh and breathable and the panel in the front is a lovely large print lace and it's adorable. The straps on the front at the bust can be removed for a sexier look. The cups are lightly lined and have a soft plastic underwire for support. The garter straps work well and hold tight even when being played with.

Onwards to the cons, please know these are my personal opinion and it may fit you differently. The collar is attached at the zipper and tugs downwards on the back. The cups are fairly small for a plus size item I wear a DDD and they barely covered half, this isn't really a "problem" but I prefer with an item like this for it to leave more to the imagination.

Thong

The thongs that come with these sets are always my least favorite part of the outfit. I honestly avoid them after the initial try on. They're way to awkwardly made for my taste and the back of the g-string always seem to go way to high up my back to feel comfortable wearing any other time. A good fix is a snip and restitch which I do plan on doing eventually.

Material

This outfit is made up of Polyester and Spandex, meaning it is stretchy and should be hand washed. These fabrics can lose their integrity if washed to hot or to roughly so do take caution. Personally I don't have the time to hand wash atm so I hook the back of it and put it in on delicate with cold water. Lay flat to dry, yes it will take some time but it's worth it to keep the outfit looking sexy and holding up.

Size/Fit

The fit and size is pretty good. I wish the strap on the back that holds up the collar was longer since it tends to be a bit tight on the throat but I'm also almost 200lbs and fit a size 11 currently based off the size chart I'm actually a 2x not a 3x like i received but it still fit well. The garters really help the outfit stay down and in place during intimacy.

Don't get me wrong it's not a bad outfit by any means. The design is very sexy and sleek, and it's holding up well. Just that collar attached to it kills it for me. I personally prefer to be chocked by my man, not by my cloths. I've noticed it more and more as I wore this outfit that the more you move, the more it tugs. Especially if you enjoy missionary or other positions that make sure you're on your back. Sadly not wearing the collar with the outfit isn't really the option without a good amount of alterations since the zipper runs through it. This one will go into my box of goodies that come out on a very rare occasion if at all.
