Fever Lingerie Wet Look French Maid Outfit

The packaging this arrived in was so discreet, which was perfect as a neighbour collected it for us. I'm a pear-shaped woman, so whilst I'm a size eight on top I have larger hips and 32E breasts, so I bought the Medium to Large one.

It fits perfectly on my hips, the material is so comfortable, and it is very flattering on my behind. It's easy to put on. With the zip on the front it means I can put it on myself without difficulty and surprise my partner.

My one issue with the item is the top. Whilst it doesn't look bad (my partner couldn't even tell the issue), it's too big at the back. I think it's the open back which causes the shoulders and sleeves to slip and it sits a little uncomfortably. However, for me it wasn't a huge issue, plus the brilliant suspender straps made up for it.

It also 'performed' very well under vigorous activity. The suspenders remained strong and everything stay in place. Even the sleeves which surprised me.

Overall, the outfit made me feel sexy, comfortable and in control. Me and my partner loved it and I have worn it time and time again.

I consider myself a domestic damsel. Dusting the 'dildo' rail, scrubbing sleeves and cleaning up after a womaniser is all in a day's work. Although I'm nicknamed Dolly, I certainly don't get away with just working 9 to 5. After dark, I'm always in the chamber. Here, more often than not, I'll be moaning, down on all fours... "These blessid stains, why-o-why a cream carpet?" It can be tough to keep on top of everything, but as I've literally 'maid' my bed, I'll have to lie in it!

I was excited to receive word that Lovehoney had decided to bless me with an outfit fitting for my chores. Introducing the Fever Lingerie Wet Look French Maid Outfit.

I opted for a size Small. A pear shape, I'm a size 8 on top, 8-10 on bottom and stand 5 foot 3" tall. I found the size small to be a bit big on me. I was a little gutted to then discover the suspender straps too long also. A real shame as they are fantastic suspender straps. They are 0.7 inch wide! If only I was a couple of inches taller I certainly would have had a spring in my step. Zipping up the front and securing the headband, I was ready to get on.

On with my next job. First there was few buttons to contend with. Next I had to, pull, pull, pull. Then it was a case of tossing it off, before becoming a little hot and bothered and ending up lost inside another. I think you'll agree changing the duvet cover is, erm, challenging.

So, I hear you ask, how does the uniform perform as I get to grip with it all? (I use the word 'it' very loosely). Surprisingly well, even when I was straddling... the mattress, trying in vain to get the fitted sheet to darn fit. This maid outfit didn't crumple or ride, not in an way I wasn't hoping for anyway.

After all that dirty business I was the one to be stripped. This left me with a 'load' to do. In this case it's hand wash only. Not really surprising. I can confirm it emerged from the sink unscathed. One thing that Fever have cleaned up with is the packaging. Subtle and tasteful it won't offend even delicate eyes. Practical as well, it can be reused to store the whole shebang.

Now I know I'm not the only one who's skimped when it comes to costumes. And no I don't only mean more revealing. Guilty as charged, I have used 'that' auction site to transform into someone or on occasions something else. But as with most things, you get what you pay for and a rash if you're not so lucky.

If you've humming and haring over the price tag, I'll give you my honest opinion. No it's not 'maid in Manhattan'. China, in fact, but it is great quality. It's by far the best fancy dress I've slipped into and the only one I've actually wanted to put back on. I think that says it all.
