Maxime Bridal teddy with garter - teddy discontinued by Oh La La Cheri - review by Bon Bon

I picked this particular piece of lingerie because I'm getting married in a year and figured my fiance would like a little pre-wedding play. I would imagine that this piece would also make a great bachelorette party gift. Personally, I love this piece. It's comfortable, sexy, easy to slip on and off (which, you know, is important). It's stretchy, always a good quality in a piece of lingerie, considering that every woman's body is differently shaped. And my fiance went wild for it.

Firs things first: this piece is a top and a bottom connected in the middle. The top is a lace V-neck with a waist that points down so that the overall top is heart-shaped. The bottom point of the heart connects clumsily with the underwear (it looks a little weird, but not enough to obsess over). The underwear is mesh a thong, probably the most uncomfortable part, on account of the fact that the material there isn't as soft as the lace material. Plus, it's a thong. The elastic thong strap and the bra strap are what hold the piece in place, leaving the whole back bare but for these two strips of white. It ties at the top.

I would say this works better on a larger chested woman than me. I'm a severe A cup, and the cups on the top sagged around the nipple area. With a fuller chest, I think that particular area would look better, but the top didn't fall off or anything like that, so it didn't especially hinder my enjoyment of the lingerie. Luckily, there was no underwire, which I always find restrictive and uncomfortable and unnecessary for someone as small-chested as I am.

The lingerie also comes with a garter. The garter's elastic was a lot looser than the body piece, so it wasn't too tight on my thighs, and it stayed on throughout the night. I almost forgot it was there. It's a fairly unremarkable garter, white lace with a tiny white bow, and it itched a little when I first put it on, but it makes a cute addition to the ensemble.

This piece is made out of polyester and spandex. To wash this, I tossed it in the washing machine on cold, then hung it out to dry. If you're worried about the lace fraying, I would recommend hand washing.

Overall I'd recommend this piece. It's a cute piece of lingerie, and without the garter you can't tell it's wedding themed. The material is the best I've found yet for inexpensive lingerie. The lace pattern is of roses/flowers, and it's also very appealing looking both from far away and up close. One size fits most.
