Liquid shine corset and thong - corset discontinued by DreamGirl - review by Beck

What are my options and what is included in the set?
Dream Girl presents Liquid Shine corset, thong, and stockings only available in black and pink/purple. This can be purchased in sizes S-3x/4x.

How functional is the set?
The Liquid shine corset does not work well to actually clench, but it is very visually appealing. It can be worn in public and in the bedroom. There is nothing inappropriate about this corset to make it only for the bedroom.

The thong is just the average thong that can be worn as your daily underwear or only with the set.

The stockings are only functional with a garter belt, but otherwise can be worn with anything as well.

Materials
Starting off with the stockings, these are made of 87% Nylon and 13% elastic fibers. These are comfortable and have a silky touch, but are very delicate and can be easily snagged.

The thong is made of 100% polyester with a lace border. The polyester is not very breathable and has a rough feel to it. They are comfortable to wear as a regular thong, if the size fits you.

The corset is made of 100% polyester as well with the same lace border. The corset has the purple polyester material on it as well as the wet look polyester material. The purple polyester is not very breathable and has no stretch to it. It has the same rough feeling to it as the thong. The wet look polyester has stretch to it and is silky and soft. The boning in the corset is made of plastic and is really flexible. The strings are like silky shoe strings without the taped end. There are metal circles at the lace up part, to lace up with the silky laces. There is also metal hooks like for a bra on the front, this is to close the corset. Overall this corset is really comfortable, except for the lace border that can be irritating.


Design
The stockings are your basic plain black stockings; they manage to go up about 20” which is about knee high. There have no special pattern to them or the sticky glue tape to stay on. They slide down your legs with out the use of the garters.

The thong is purple with a black pattern to it, now the pattern is hard to explain. I can see stars, hearts, and flowers, so I have to say this is a random pattern. Around the border of the thong is this black lace, it does have a pattern to it also, but it is like a twirling diamond or similar to a paw print. The thong is thicker in the back than the average thong, but more about that in another section. The thong has a nice panty liner to it that is what you find in you normal panties. There is a ½”thick waist band attaching the front to the back on both sides.


The corset is a halter top style; this halter top is adjustable by a ribbon tie. The very front is brought together by hooks, just like a bra would be. There are 19 of these total, they bring together two 4” (wide) panels of the black wet look material. This wet look material is then brought together with a plastic boning to meet a 6” purple with the black pattern panel, on each side. Then the purple panel is connected by a plastic boning, to bring together another 4” wet look material paneling, on both sides. This final wet look panel is brought together by another plastic boning, to attach the final purple panel 8“. This panel has a plastic boning piece in the middle of it. These to final purple panels are brought together by the silky shoe laces, these are really long and there are 2 of them. Around the whole top of the corset is the same lace border that was on the thong. The corset is 15" long in the front. On the bottom of the second purple panel on each side are the removable garters for the front. And then on the back in the inside on the final purple panels are the back removable garters. These are adjustable by plastic pieces, like what would be on your bra. The actual garter clips are plastic pieces with the rubber back. These garters are removable, by similar hooks and loops that would be for a strapless bra.

Sizing
Dream Girl Size Chart
I ordered the 1x/2x and I do have to say that it is a little large. I should have gone with the large, but I have such a large bust, it is hard to say what I should go with. According to the size chart my measurements are border line between a large and the 1x/2x, if you are border line go with the smaller size. There is nothing wrong with the way my corset fits, but it could for been tighter. I had no issues with fitting my large breast inside this corset and there was even room for larger ones. There is no support, but you can wear a bra. I recommend on with the crisis-cross straps.

The thong that comes in the set was way too big for me. At the top of the thong in the front you have 6”, but then the back is 4.25” across the top, but the part that goes up the crack is 3” wide. That is a lot of material to go in there. I could not even wear this thong. This was also way too baggy on me; there is 22” of fabric from waist band in the front to waist band in the back. It was saggy down on me, so this did not work well for me. I wish the thong could be ordered in a separate size than the top, since I am rarely the same on the top as the bottom.

The stockings are one size fits all. They have stretch to them and will fit a wide size range.

Cleaning
The tag of the corset and the thong recommend dry cleaning only, but I recommend hand washing in cold water and line drying. It is what I did and has not ruined the material. You should store this on a hanger or in a dresser. It is travel friendly since it is clothing.

Packaging
This come wrapped in hot pink tissue paper. There are tags attached that you will need to cut off. If you add tape you would have a presentable gift.

Now since my thong was so big, I am glad I purchased the wet look boxers. They match perfect and I plan to get the stockings to match.

Overall feel
I am giving this set four stars, but this is mainly to do with the plastic boning and not being effect clench wise.

My corset has been ruined. The silky ribbon that ties around your neck for the halter top, had ripped off. It begun to fray and can't be fixed. They only think I can do is remove the silk ribbon from both sides and replace it. Since, I am not very good at sewing, I will not be doing this. Though, I might have my mother in law do it. Sadly, I no longer think this is a great piece. Because it just didn't last a long time.
