Lovehoney Love Me Black Lace Soft Cup Babydoll Set

I struggle to find lingerie that fits me well. I am 5ft (just), size 8 and have 30F boobs, so yea this makes it difficult!

As soon as this came in there was so much buzz and interest around it that I didn't want to miss out (just because I assumed it will not fit). So I took the plunge and went for it...

Talking of plunges, a lovely neckline on this with the lace detail, so soft too!

Ok, so I swiftly threw this in in hope and to my amazement, with zero adjustments... It fit me. My boobs sit nicely in the underwire and thanks to the lace cups, all the bust is covered with no spillage. I am sure it will fit someone with a smaller bust too but may be better for people B cup and above.

The length skims past my bum and looks perfect.

I am so happy with this, simply adore it.

I've got the red version of this beautiful babydoll, too, which shows how much I love it!

As a five footer, I was a little bit worried about the length, but even though the hem falls further down my thigh than in the pics it's really sexy and sophisticated.

The sheer cups (which are more see-through than the photos imply) show just enough nipple, and the adjustable straps give my boobs a nice little boost.

I'd have liked the underwiring to be a little wider, if that makes sense, as my boobs felt a little bit squished in (I'm a 32 or 34 D), but as I wouldn't be wearing it for long periods of time it doesn't matter too much.

The matching briefs are really cute, too, and super flattering - somewhere between a thong and Brazilian knickers.

I'd love to see this style without the underwiring, and maybe in some other shades, too!

I’m usually likely to pick up lingerie with a slightly wider shoulder strap and wires as it’ll give me a little more support.

However, I personally think this style would’ve worked better for me without the wires. If you’re a smaller cup size (I’m a 34E/F), the wires would probably work nicely for you, but for me they kind of just ‘rested’ on my boobs. Other than that it’s another lovely piece of lingerie - I just wish it fitted me better!

I'm a big fan of the flattering power of babydolls, so I had to give this beautiful black number a try.

Fit-wise, I wear a UK 12-14 and have 36DD boobs. I didn't think the thong that came with the babydoll would fit me, as I've got very wide hips, but I was pleasantly surprised to find it was a really nice fit!

The babydoll itself looked really flattering and gave surprising lift and support for something with soft, unpadded cups, but I would say anyone with breasts bigger than an E cup may struggle to fit. The underwiring dug in underneath my arms slightly, which was a shame, but for short periods of time, this isn't too much of a problem.

Length-wise, it was a little shorter on me than on the model, and just skimmed the base of my bum. But I do really like the simplicity of the shape, so I think this will be getting many an airing!

For reference purposes and what follows in my review of this item, I am 5’ 6” tall wear a dress size 10-12 size 12 knickers and my bra size is 34DD.

I was pleased to be selected to trial and write a review of the Lovehoney Love Me Lace Black Soft Cup Babydoll.

The babydoll I received for trial and review had the LH Brand label attached and marked "O/S" - which I can only assume refers to this garment as being just the "One Size".

My first impression of this babydoll was that it looked sexy in classic black and it is a beautifully designed item. I was also struck by the lovely quality of the manufacture. The double and single layers of the black lace design of the cups and panels coupled with the almost sheer see-through quality of the fine mesh of the skirt add to the overall stunningly sexy effect. The Empire Line design ensures that the skirt falls beautifully away from the double layer of black lace of the soft cups down to the hem, creating a lovely A-line shape.

Trying this babydoll on for the first time, I found it difficult to avoid the back from rolling up and I found it a little awkward to pull down without the help of my husband. My second attempt was easier once I’d fully adjusted the sliders on the two bra straps (running across the back) to their widest setting, but it was still a tight fit when I attempted to pull it over my shoulders and chest.

I found that the length was perfect for my size as the hem reached just below my crotch and the bottom of my buttocks and provided my husband with a tantalizing and sexy glimpse of my buns covered by the accompanying matching beautiful black lacy knickers. These too were a perfect fit, which was a pleasant surprise. I often find that with One Size knickers that the fit is not ideal. Not the case with these sexy knickers that fit me very comfortably.

Sadly this beautiful sexy One Size babydoll did not fit my breasts just as comfortably.

Like most women with larger breasts, mine are the weightiest and fullest by the sides of my upper arm - just below the position of the arm pits. This means that my breasts are very spread out. Once I had managed to squeeze into the garment I found that the padded cups did not fully accommodate my 34DD breasts. They were squeezed so tightly that they bulged out at the sides just at sides below my armpits and above the babydoll's waist strap and the single layered lace panel.

I also found that the cups at this part pinched me at the sides and resulted in some discomfort due to the tight fit. The cups provided me with a lovely uplift and support, but they were slightly smaller than I would have liked to have worn. The uplift the cups gave me was very flattering, but perhaps another couple of inches would have provided me with a more comfortable fit.

Because of this. I don’t think that the One Size in this item would be suitable for anyone with a larger bust above a 34 size/ D Cup; or for someone who wears a dress size larger than a size 12.

In conclusion, I will persevere wearing this beautiful babydoll and try and overcome the discomfort - particularly if I decide to keep it on long enough to sleep in!

It would make a lovely Valentine’s Day gift.
