Lovehoney Plus Size Off the Shoulder Lace Mini Dress

Before I start I'd like to say as usual this arrived promptly and packaged discreetly as has everything I've ever ordered from Lovehoney.

The packaging of the item itself is lovely. You don't really expect clothing to be packaged nicely, but this is. It's in a nice black and purple box, which if anyone is looking to purchase this as a gift you could easily wrap this the way it is, it's packaging really is that nice.

Now onto the dress itself. It's lace and a really nice soft lace at that. I was expecting it to be scratch,y maybe even a little cheap feeling, but it isn't. It feels luxurious and when something you wear is sexy it makes you feel sexy too.

It clings to the body nicely considering I got a size up because I'm a little self-conscious (yes, I know purchasing a very revealing item when self-conscious doesn't make much sense, but listen anyway). I so should have got the size down. I'm a UK size 14/16 depending on where I shop, and this does fit me, albeit a bit big, but I love it anyway. It certainly would fit someone larger than myself, so it's definitely true to size.

It's black lace, so a lot of it you can see through, but it hugs the body in all the right places and I felt gorgeous in this and really confident. It's not hard to put on at all, so don't worry about surprising your men. Ladies, you can do it easily in this dress. I purchased it as a gift for my other half but he's unwell. Funnily enough, the minute he saw me in this he seems to be back in full swing. ;)

If you want something that isn't going to break the bank but is going to make you feel sexy, then get this. It's lovely!

The dress comes packaged in a glossy cardboard package in distinctive purple and black colours.

There are no photos of a model wearing the dress, which subject to personal taste is either a good thing or a bad thing.

On the rear of the package there is an outline drawing that illustrates what the dress looks like on.

My OH, like many ladies may be, is often intimidated or put off by the models which wear the products as she feels that she won't be able to look as good as them (she is so wrong) and packaging like this helps her confidence and further adds to how sexy she feels wearing it as she is not self consciously comparing herself to the model.

My wife is a comfortable size 22, 5 Foot 10 tall with a 38DD bra size.

When you first get the dress out, your first thoughts are how the heck will that fit!

It's packaged around a piece of cardboard in a similar vein to a pair of tights.

The material is exceedingly stretchy and fits lovely on my wife who is towards the top end of the size range. It supports her boobs well and sits just below her bum cheeks.

The material has the effect of smoothing out some of her lumps and bumps, making her feel and look sexy and confident.

The black lacy material is delightful and is just see-through enough to see through yet still maintain an air of mystique.

The open neck and shoulders are a perfect invitation for loads of kisses and the lacy sleeves felt lovely wrapped when she wrapped her arms around my back.

The sexy little G-string that comes with it fits nicely and is suitably small to be left in place during a rather thorough testing session!

Received this dress as a secret tester and my wife wasted no time giving it a test run.

And needless to say, she fell in love with it. And being a plus size girl she very rarely feels sexy in this kind of thing, but she was really excited about how sexy she felt and looked.

So, the lace long sleeve mini dress arrives in a fairly basic box type package, which is purple and black in colour. On the front it has only the name of the item, its colour, and size. On the reverse there is a silhouette of a not so plus size woman sporting a long sleeve mini dress, as well as a detailed image of the material.

Inside the box the dress is sealed in a clear plastic bag. Once opened you will find a black long sleeve lace mini dress that has a floral pattern to the lace. The dress is extremely stretchy and also very soft to touch.

The dress is very easy to put on, and due to its stretchy nature it can't be manipulated easily, so no squeezing in or struggling to get your arms in the sleeves.

Once on, the floral pattern will be clearly visible, providing a very subtle coverage of your assets in all their glory. The dress is as described, a mini dress. However, it does just about cover your bum.

So, my experience was coming home after a long day's work to be greeted by my wife in this very sexy black lace dress. She was stood waiting at the door with an outstretched hand and a sparkle in her eye.

She felt and looked amazing. The dress showed off her figure. whilst the floral pattern to the lace provide a little bit of coverage to the nipples and pelvic area. And being a mini dress. there was no need to remove it to get down to business.

Overall the dress was a massive hit. My wife felt sexy and was really excited wearing it and loved how it felt and looked, and I was extremely pleased with how good she looked in it.
