Lovehoney Black Garter Dress with Leopard Trim

We bought this bodystocking from Lovehoney in the discount clearance sale and I think that we paid about a fiver for it, so it was a bargain!

It was a perfect fit for her and she did look, very, very hot.

If you didn't get one before they discontinued this one then you lost out but we find it best to purchase these during the sales as they can be a bit to easy to pull the stitching so if we had paid the full price and it had split we would have been just a tad upset!

This is one of the most comfortable bodystockings I have bought from Lovehoney.

It makes you feel sexy and hides any lumps and bumps your not comfortable about.

Sizing is true to size and it sure makes you feel good about yourself. OH was impressed.

The leopard trim gives it a nice finish

If you have body confidence issues, this is the item for you (or if your just after something sexy and un-complicated to slide into). Silky smooth to put on and trimmed with lovely soft leopard print, as soon as I put it on I felt like a sex kitten.

For context I'm 5"1, size 10-12. I hate my stomach area and am not confident braless generally.

This item stretches to your shape, which is why I think it is so flattering. It sits and hugs your curves without sinking into crevices. It skimmed over my mum-tum, hiding the wobbly bits, and sat comfortably under my bum, making my legs look endless!

It is obviously see-through, but not completely, so there is less of a feeling of being exposed, while giving your partner a nice glimpse of what underneath. I loved this body stocking. The leopard print gave it a sexy edge, while the fabric, fit and design really flattered my shape and made me feel fabulous!

I bought this for my wife as she prefers to have a little something covering her. This is perfect.

Slightly thin material, but this is good as you can still see a through it a bit. Leopard skin effects are also well made and also go really well with the black.

She loves that the stockings are attached as they are always feeling like they are coming off whereas these ones don't.

A little awkward to get into, but we'll worth it in the end.

Overall another fantastic item and even better when on offer.

I have only owned one other bodystocking that is an "all in one", meaning you have the stockings, the straps to old them up attached to the top. I had forgot the comedic attempt and putting this on my body until this bodystocking arrived.

Here is my best tip: line up one leg and the torso section first and then stretch your other leg up a big to get it going whilst you have most the other leg in... them shimmy, and I mean shimmy, to get into this stocking and take a moment to line up the straps that connect the pieces together.

For the purpose of this review, I am five feet sevenish, a US Size 10/12 with D cup breasts. What is fantastic about bodystockings is they are so stretchy and adjustable for all body types.,. but this one left me a bit disappointed in how the pieces lined up for me.

No matter how I adjusted the legs the straps in the front of this stocking where too long and gapped a bit, while the ones in the back were mostly stretch or fully stretched when I tried to pull down on the leg to even out the front. This really made me feel like either my butt was too big, thus stretching the back straps more than the front OR this bodysuit is made for a taller woman. Either way that was a bit of downer really.

There are many positives about this piece I do want to share:

1) The fabric is very soft in the hands, while it is like an opaque finish tight it is softer and doesn't feel scratchy at all.

2) The leopard print trim is really fun and looks great, offering a fun element to the design.

3) The neckline has 3 snaps on the back and feels really nice - sometimes I struggle to have neck pieces fit / feel good and this one works great.

4) I liked to overall concept of a stocking that leaves you fully open and exposed at the lady bits if you choose to wear it without knickers.

5) The bodice is very flattering and sheer enough to allow a peek but not super sheer. The hem line can also hide a tummy well.

6) The lace patterns/edging was really a pretty pattern.

I can see this piece being a really fun way to combine with a skirt and jacket for some sexy outwear and a surprise for a date night.
