Seven 'til Midnight Black Flocked Mesh Bra Set

A new year and a new review. I wish it was spectacularly amazing and down right fantastic, but it's just, well, okay.

Seven 'til Midnight is a luxurious designer brand that is relatively new to me. I own two pieces and love them, so I was super hopeful.

On opening the discreet, speedily delivered package, I was stunned at the glorious detail. The flocking was flocking beautiful! So highly detailed, intricate and delicate. The softness of the fabric always utterly divine. The teeny sparkles hanging front and centre added such an expensive feel to this. It really looks high end, classy and expensive. In design it is flawless. In fit, not so much.

I ordered the XL 18-20. I am usually at the larger side of the scale, but every item of lingerie varies from range to range. The pants were a fantastic fit. The straps sat high, the cut outs were provocatively placed, and the jewels dripped stunningly. Each piece of fabric complimented the next. The suspenders are detachable (woohoo), so can be comfortably worn without stockings. The clips are robust. Perfect. They are so incredibly flattering and lustworthy!

The bra was unfortunately not as perfect. Again the straps, cut-outs, blend of fabrics, handing sparkles were amazing. It looked the part. The fit was not so fantastic. Don't get me wrong it fit, only just. The back strap was pulled as far as it could and the clasps barely closed. It is a super snug fit. The cups, the underwire everything was perfect, just a bit too tight round the back.

There was a simple solution. Bra extender. For those who don't have one I can't recommend them enough, especially for those with a broader back like me. Instant fit. Once I put the extender on this was so much more comfortable and easier to wear. I adore a long-line bra and this was just perfect. It has the look but none of the rolling up that other long-line bras can have.

This was my first new lingerie set in a while, so my husband was over excited. As was I!

It is a stunning set that oozes sex appeal. Once the bra extender was on it was heavenly.
