Vintage Rose babydoll and g-string - babydoll and panties set by Coquette - review by Pete's Princess

This reminds me of a dance costume I had way back when I actually thought I could be a ballerina. But alas, it was not to be. This little baby doll, just had me spinning and dancing around. The flowing fabric is perfect for catching just the proper amount of air. However, most of you will not be buying this for dancing so I will move on.

Style/Design
This baby doll would be great for the vast majority of body types. This is perfect for the woman whose weight fluctuates. It is also perfect for the woman who wants to minimize attention to her mid section. The two layers of mesh fabric are lightly gathered and drape nicely over each other. They are not gathered so tightly that it makes you look bigger than you are. The chest area is fitted but does not have cups or underwires. This is a plus for those who are smaller breasted or those who may be larger on one side than the other. Being a D cup, I found that the snug fit of the chest area did provide enough support for me, and I rarely wear anything without an underwire. But it may be a drawback for women who want more support. If that is the case, a skin toned bra can be worn under it.

The top is made of a several layers. The black backing is lightly padded that gives a bit of support. There are seams that run down the middle of each breast. The seam is a bit rough, but the backing is silky and very comfortable. There is a dark mauve solid fabric and a pink flowered lace over it on the outside. The top and bottom of the section have a maroon lace detail. There is a maroon bow that is detachable. The straps are adjustable. The bottom section has two light layers of pink mesh material.

Included is a pink lace thong. The main part is made of the same material of lace that is used to overlay the maroon on the breast area of the baby doll. There is no backing so you can be seen underneath. The remainder is an elastic covered by a mauve satiny fabric.

Measurements - Large
As it is only fitted at the top, the bust measurement is the key here:
The actual measurements are:
Bust:
Length at Center Back: 4"
Length at Center Bust: 6.5"
Width: 34" (un-streched) to 40" (stretched)

Lower portion:
Length of first layer: 12"
Length of second layer: 16"

Thong:
Front to back: 13"
Hips: 35" (un-streched) to 42" (streched)

Material and Care
This is 82% Nylon and 18% Spandex not including the decorative additions. Both of these materials should be kept away from heat (temperature kind, not the you and playmate kind) as they are prone to melt.

The mesh material in the lower portion catches easily.

To clean, first remove the bow that is attached with a metal safety closure. Then wash with a mild detergent in cold water. Hang or lay flat to dry. Do not bleach or put in the dryer.

My sweet wonderful man is not a big fan of the baby doll style. He likes me in more form fitting outfits. However, corsets are not something I wear to sleep in. I generally sleep in a chemise, but sometimes I just need some variety. He likes pink and frilly (where I don't), so this was a compromise.

It is very comfortable to sleep in, wear around the house and wear for playtime. It provides light breast support. The material is light so it is perfect for summer wear.
