Material / Texture / Design / Shape / Size

The tag on the bra portion of the lingerie says it's made of 100% Acetate. On the original description of this product, no where does it mention acetate. Acetate also called acetate rayon, is a synthetic fiber/fabric that adds strength and durability. (Yes, I actually looked it up on dictionary.com). When it comes to durability and strength of this product, it is true to that.

This product is also made of up satin, lace and mesh fabrics. Starting from the top of the lingerie, is the bra area. The front of the bra is black satin, with a big white satin bow in the middle. The bra is lined both top and bottom with a thin white elastic for extra support, as well as added appeal. At the top where the white elastic is sewed, there is a white lace trim roughly an inch in height. The lace trim follows all the way up the bra strap for added design. The lace stops about half way on the bra strap, which can hit different areas on your shoulder or back depending on the adjustment of the straps. Both the shoulder straps are adjustable, and the bra clasps at the back are adjustable. When it comes to the back of the bra, the fabric is a strong mesh, with the hook-eye clasp fastener. There is three different rows when it comes to the hook-eye closures, just like most bras. The bra cups are slightly padded , with the inside being the synthetic fiber. The padding adds a bit extra support to the bra, and helps add a little boost to your breasts.




The apron portion of the lingerie is black satin, synthetic fiber as well. It's satiny to the touch on the outside, but is not as soft as normal satin on the inside. It's still comfortable against the skin, but very durable. The apron has the white lace trim,which goes all the way around the apron. At the bottom portion, there are two small pockets, with white lace trim and a small white bow at the top. Each pocket is 3" deep, and 4" wide at the widest point. For the apron length from below the bust, it's 12" including lace trim. The measurements are based on the "One Size Fits Most Plus Size".



The panties for this lingerie is made from mesh material. The whole thing is lined with the same white elastic, to help add support. The panties actually cover your bum, and have two strips of ruffles at the back. With the sheerness of the panties, the double ruffle on the bum looks cute, and sexy. There is a small tag at the back, sewed in where the white elastic is. With the tag being white, and the panties being mesh, you will probably want to remove the tag. This panty fits quite low in the front, but covers your bum crack in the back!



The last piece of this set: the maid hairband. It's just a basic wide hairband that's been covered in a satin, synthetic fabric. It has a small little apron looking portion attached to the band, that sticks up. It's almost a thick canvas type fabric, about 2" in height. The front of it is softer, kind of a satin finish. This also has the white lace border all around the black fabric, to finish off the piece.



This lingerie comes in two sizes: Regular "One Size Fits Most", and Plus Size "One Size Fits Most".

Care and Maintenance

Even though this item is fairly durable in fabric, with the lace detail you will want to hand wash this lingerie. Wash this in cool to lukewarm water, with a mild soap. I like to wash my lingerie with Zero detergent, which is made for delicate items. Do NOT wash this in a washing machine, even if you have one of those lingerie bags, as this item may lose it's shape. Make sure to hang this item to air dry, do NOT put it in the dryer.

Another piece of lingerie from Coquette that I'm in love with. I wear a size 14 or an XL, and the Plus Size "One Size Fits Most" fits perfectly. This is super durable, that I can actually clean the house wearing it! My fiance loves it when I wear it, especially the view from the back. The panties are comfortable and actually cover my ass! Of course they're mesh and you can peak at my bum, but the ruffles add that extra cute and sexiness to the item.

I found the lace a little itchy in the beginning, but after washing it once, the itchiness went away.

Packaging

The packaging for this lingerie was quite cute. It came in a recyclable box, that had a metallic purple look to it. The front had a photo of a model wearing the item. It has "Kissable", "by Coquette" written at the top, and "Apron. Panty. Headpiece" written on the bottom. The back has a nice description written about the product, as well as a photo of the model with the view from the back of the lingerie. Once opening the box, the lingerie wasn't in plastic. I would have preferred if it was wrapped in plastic to protect it, but the items were fine. They were nicely folded, and you could tell that they were brand new.

I'm still in love with this maid apron and have gotten a lot of wear out of it. I like to wear it while cleaning the apartment, when I know my fiance will be arriving home soon. Since it's an apron it's adjustable, which makes this an easy buy for someone who is a plus size like myself. This is super sexy, you won't regret this purchase!
