Allure Kitten Merry Widow Black Lace Bustier Set

This blew my man's mind, he says it's perfect, and one of his instant favourites.

Pros

The fishnet material is much softer than you'd expect, I was worried it might be itchy, but it was actually quite a nice feeling.

It's got a lot of stretch and give. I'm 5'2, 130 lbs, but this would fit much taller/thicker women well, if not better. Since the lace on the sides is adjustable, along with the garter straps, I could see this fitting a wide range of sizes.

There is a strip of fabric that rests along the inside of the zipper to keep it from pinching you, or it feeling cold/metallic on your skin. I was worried the zipper might be uncomfortable but I barely felt it there.

Cons

The garter clips are really difficult to use. They're looped in by this little piece of plastic that can fall out when trying to attach stockings. At first, I thought I broke them but quickly realized how to put in back in. Once attached though, they were very secure. They stayed attached all throughout the evening - so this is only really an issue while you're putting it on.

I'm on the smaller side of a B cup, so the boob area was a little lacking for my body type. It is see-through, so he *really* didn't mind, but since it was so see-through and stretchy/tight-fitting, it kinda made my boobs look smaller. Unzipping it about 2 inches helped me boost a little cleavage though, which helped boost my confidence wearing it.

Garter belt clips could be a little itchy at times depending on how I was sitting/laying.

The zipper only lays flat when you are standing. If you sit down, it bunches up kinda funny. I figured this would happen, and I know he probably didn't even notice/care, but worth mentioning.

The G-string is awful. This is a problem I have with all lingerie sets though. Ladies, you gotta trust me on this: get stripper G-strings. They are shaped entirely different to accentuate our curves in all the right places. It's such a minor difference but I swear, you will instantly see what I mean and never look back. They can be as cheap as $8-12 for basic colours. I wish the lingerie industry would catch up with the dancewear industry.

Overall

This isn't my go-to style nowadays but I really enjoyed it as a throwback to teenage me that would've worn it when my husband and I first met. I knew it would drive him wild based on that alone, so for me, I was willing to deal with the minor cons. I would say if you know this look would make your man extremely happy, then definitely go for it. His reaction was worth it and I plan to wear it for him again. However, if you're just looking to switch it up based on style, there may be slightly comfier options.
