honestly, she looks tiny and it looks like it hugs her body pretty well. I suggest not getting it :( I dont see how it can be a one size fits all unless it is a super stretchy material. I have always hated one size fits all clothing becuase i find it to be a lie most of the time.
I don't trust "one size fits all" lingerie. I rarely get it. I would buy more lingerie from places like Adam and Eve and Priscilla's but the the ones in my area typically have the "one size" and it doesn't work for me, a person who doesn't have even a butt. :(
So I go to places like Victoria's Secret or other specialty stores where they have individual sizes for a better fit. But that picture is seriously sexy: I love off-the-shoulder looks. Sexy but romantic!
Thank you both! I appreciate the info... Do you know of any similar styles anywhere?? I really love the length, the sheer/lace, the off-the-shoulder.. it's beautiful
are you good at sewing? you could buy it and if it is too small you could make it a corset back. That would be gorgeous! All I would be worried about is the bust because the bottom has a lot of extra material.
Have you checked out www.hipsandcurves.com ?
Lots of good stuff for us curvy girls!
@lovelove1028: Besides Etsy, I typically get my stuff at VS (because that's the only place in this God-forsaken town!), so I'm not sure where one could get that kind of style. In my experience, they're kind of few and far in between. :/
But I would go with littlemisst08's suggestion! Looks like a great resource!
I'll definitely be checking out hipsandcurves! Thank you for the suggestion.
I looked up the website that had the one I liked for reviews, and it's a VERY poorly reviewed china website.. So I definitely won't be ordering from them.
So I googled until I found this image:
Looks like the same, just the girl is holding the front out to the sides??
AND I even found a legitimate website that sells it! IN DIFFERENT SIZES! S/M, M/L, and XL.
The only catch is.... it's $61 instead of the $14 from the China scam website. Such is the price for quality and security I suppose?
Now I have to wrestle with a NEW debate whether to spend that much money on it or not without having tried it on (at least now I know I can get it in a size that WILL fit!)
What do you think? Worth trying for $60? Or is that a crazy amount of money for a babydoll like this?
Its cute! and if you want it longer you can add a layer under and no one will never know! If you will use it and you have the money I would say go for it!!
you probably wont find nice quality stuff for less unless it is on sale...
also, the chinese site used that model form somewhere that actually makes those of good quality (they do for everything and I know it is for this because it is not an asian woman). If you want that one so bad I would keep searching because it is out there somewhere!
I've bought lingerie online and I can say 10000% that you should NOT trust the one-size-fits-all. Especially if it's a site where it comes from China/Hong Kong. They always show up smaller, I always go at least 2 sizes up.
I have purchased lingerie from Frederick's and VS and other "specialty" stores (Hustler Hollywood), and my size 14, 36DD body will not fit into even the XL sizes that they carry. That said, if it were me, I wouldn't even order the $61 babydoll...
sorry.
One thing to consider for a larger gal is if your breasts need support. If your breasts are big but perky, something like this can look oK. If not, then you might try for something with more of a bra/cup built in. I have two teddies that aren't too bad for this, so they are out there. But when I try on traditional lingerie often I find it doesn't look good because my breasts are not very perky and the lingerie doesn't povide support.
I'm smaller than you and everytime I buy something "one size fits all" it definitely does NOT. Either the panties are too tight/uncomfortable or my ladies are popping out the top! I would shop specifically by your size to be sure.
@Mrs Canuck: Thanks for the info! I've tried shopping at VS before and NEVER EVER found anything that fit comfortably (even when it was supposedly my size).
@Jennlee: That's definitely a good point. I definitely need support to leave the house, but I feel mine are perky enough that they still look okay enough for lounging around the house with the FI. Haha.
Either way.... ALL of you wonderful ladies have helped me decide that I'm definitely going to need to visit a REAL lingerie shop and try stuff on. I want it to fit, support, be comfortable, and (most importantly) look good! And I can't get any of that by blindly ordering online.
Thank you all. :)

I have never bought or worn any sort of lingerie before, so I have no idea what I'm doing.
but I think I'm completely in love with this babydoll:
BUT... I'm a sort of curvy girl (size 14-16, with 38DDD chest), and this is "one size fits all"....
Will this fit me?? Anyone have any recommendations for a place to shop to try on similar ones to see how they'd fit...?
Anyone else my size ever bought anything like this? How did it fit/look?
