First, I have to say thank you for 7 Til Midnight for sending two pieces, including the Sheer Pleasure Chemise.
As the name suggests, it’s a sheer chemise, a lingerie staple if you ask me. It’s available in red or black, and I like the design so much that I’d love to own both. For now, I have the red. It’s a mesh and lace chemise with spaghetti straps in a vibrant red.
The body of the chemise is made of a fine mesh that is comfortable to wear all day long–and I did! The cups have lace detail that shows some skin but isn’t as sheer as the rest of the piece. Both fabrics offer a lot of stretch.
During use, I found that the backside of the chemise had a tendency to ride up my ass. Not a huge deal, especially if you don’t wear it for that long. I’m a shortie–5’2″–so it hits between my mid to lower thigh when it’s in position. If it didn’t ride up, I’d consider hemming it a few inches so it were shorter all around. It will be shorter on taller folks, of course.
The spaghetti straps are adjustable, like a bra, and the triangular cups are quite stretchy. I could make them look decent, but not perfect on my C cups. A D or double D cup might be more suited for this size. Of course, I’m sure I notice the less-than-perfect fit more than anyone else would. There are seams around the cups, but not wires. This will offer some support and shaping but you can’t expect too much from it.
The Sheer Pleasure Chemise comes with a thong as well. They’re both pretty well made, and the thong is super stretchy, but the sizing varies between pieces. The one I got with my other set was fairly accurate size-wise, but the red thong with the Sheer Pleasure Chemise is much larger than the chemise size I tried. I can pull it halfway up my back, and the front panel nearly reaches my belly button. It’s kinda hilarious but not something that is a huge deal breaker. Those who are so inclined could sew it or pair the lingerie with anything else.
I wore one of 7 Til Midnight’s thongs all day and found it to be comfortable and stretchy without cutting into my flesh. The straps are super thin, however; they will eventually wear out through use and washing. The front panel consists of the same mesh material as the chemise.
I did wash both in the normal cycle with the rest of my clothes. The piece did not bleed, and it came out without any damage. I actually wore the chemise to bed for a couple of nights to test its durability. It was comfortable and passed the test with flying colours.
I really feel something, maybe sexy, in the Sheer Pleasure Chemise. It doesn’t hide or shape the problem areas but the comfort it provides was unexpected. It’s something that people of all body sizes can wear.
I considered taking some pictures of this, but, I have to say, the pictures in Yandy’s shop really show it well. I really don’t think there’s anything that I could add to this review with an image of me. Sorry, y’all. d=
You can get the Sheer Pleasure Chemise for under $20 right now as it’s on sale. It’s a great price for a piece that is made so well and so comfortable.
humph!
I think you can let us decide if pictures of you are better than the pictures they provide!
This is a really great review. I love this style of nighty
I love this style, too, and this was just so comfy!
