Red gartered slip and thong - chemise discontinued by DreamGirl - review by xoheartsyou

The Red Gartered Slip and Thong set is manufactured by Dreamgirl. Included in this set is the slip, thong, and garters. The set is so simple and sexy. The red satin gives you a smooth, flawless appearance. The vertical mesh straps add definition to the slip, and the black lace adds extra sex appeal.

Slip
The slip is a red, nylon, and spandex material. It is stretchable and fits all your curves perfectly. Running down the front and back of the slip are vertical, see through stripes. These mesh stripes are 2 inches in width and add definition to the slip.

There is lace detail at the bottom and on the cups of the slip that also add definition to the slip. The lace is high quality and had no rips or snags. The lace is fringed, but this fringe doesn't create itching.

The straps on the slip are black and adjustable. I was super excited about them being adjustable, because nobody is the same. The adjustable straps make this slip that much more comfortable.

The cups are also wired, which gives great support to bustier ladies like myself. The cups feature the three different materials on this slip. You have the lace detail, the see through mesh, and the satin all featured on the cups. Unfortunately the cup size was not accurate, but this can easily be fixed if you go up a size.

On the back side of the slip there are 24 hook and eye closures. Hopefully, since this slip stretches, you will be able to pull this slip on over your head, like I was able to. If not, this slip could be a pain in the butt to get on.



Thong
Even though this set says it comes with a thong, it is actually a g-string. The thong definitely doesn't cover your whole area. Since the thong is basically a piece of ribbon, it can cause irritation and is super uncomfortable. The edging of the thong can cause even more irritation if worn after shaving. All in all, the thong could be a lot better in quality and comfort. I guess every rose has it's thorn, and this thong is definitely the thorn in this set.

Most of the time Dreamgirl is pretty good with accurate sizes. When it comes to this slip everything is accurate except the wired cups. I have a large C/small D, and the cups were oddly shaped and sized. My boobs over-flowed from the cup and it just wasn't flattering.

Care and Material
The slip is 92% nylon and 8% spandex. The thong is also made of 92% nylon and 8% spandex. To clean your slip I recommend that you hand wash it in cold water and air-dry. As for the thong, just throw it into the wash with your delicates. Make sure to always wash with cold water.

Never place these pieces in a dryer, as you don’t want to shrink them or destroy the nylon or the spandex. Even though you could get away with drying them in a dryer, they probably would have a shorter life.


Storing
When it comes to storing your slip, just place it on the hanger it came with. As for the thong, you can store it with your delicates or you can store by hanging them on the hanger with your slip. The garters should be stored with your delicates or kept attached to the slip.

Packaging
I received the red gartered slip and thong on a hanger that was covered by plastic for protection. There was no writing or images on the plastic, it was completely clear showing the gartered slip. The gartered slip and thong were both placed on the hanger with their own areas to hang. Attached to left underarm of the slip was a tag that had the models image on it with the size. There are no instructions with this set.

When I tried this on I fell in love with the fit and the feeling. It looked great, unfortunately the boobs just weren't feeling it. They were overflowing the cups, and just pissed me off because the slip fit perfectly. I would recommend getting the next size up when you order. I also loved the fact the garters were removable, because you really don't need them to hold the slip in place.

I still gave this slip a 4 because despite the tacky thong and inaccurate cup size, because the slip is absolutely gorgeous.
