When I was younger, plus size meant large cotton bras that dug into your shoulders and white cotton pants you could sail a boat with. I’m so glad that nowadays plus size can mean sexy size as well. I especially like the plus size corsets and bustiers and my favourite is the embroidered satin bustiers.
Any type of intimate apparel that you get – whether they’re corsets or plus size lingerie – needs to be cleaned carefully. Lace, in particular, is a very delicate fabric and requires a certain level of care. Cleaning delicate materials can get nerve wracking as you do not want to ruin your clothes. Here are some quick tips on hand washing lace:• Fill the bathroom sink with cool water (not cold and not warm) and add some shampoo to the water.
• Put your lace stuff in there and squeeze the water through the garments several times.
• Then let the stuff sit in the sink for about 3 minutes and squeeze the water through again.
• Then empty the sink, fill with cool water and rinse by squeezing the clear water through the garments.
• Keep refilling the sink with clear water and squeeze and rinse until the water is no longer soapy and clear.
• Squeeze the water out of the garment well and then roll the articles in bath towel and squeeze well while wrapped in the towel. Then hang the stuff to dry.
• Don’t wring the articles, squeeze them. Wringing will ruin the garments.
Plus size lingerie ranges in style from sheer slips to corsets. Caring for the latter can be a bit meticulous. Here are some easy to remember tips:It is important to always wear something underneath your corset to absorb your body oils and sweat.
Do not allow other people to wear your corset! By the time your corset is broken in, it has molded to your exact body shape. Letting others wear your corset will warp it.
Your garment is dry clean only, though Dryel would not be an acceptable substitute as the dryer will warp the corset.
This garment must never be submersed in water in any way. The stays are made of metal, and the stays at your hips are made of spiral coils that cannot be coated in protective plastics.
After you have worn your corset a few times, you may notice that it has taken on a bit of an odor. It is a good idea to air your corset out by hanging it over the back of a chair, door or cupboard. It’s even better with a fan.
When putting your corset away, it will be tempting to roll it up and toss it in a drawer. Rolling your corset will result in warping, so just don’t do it.
As if the prices weren’t low enough already, Luscious Plus is having a Spring Sale. I’ve never been one to pass up an opportunity to save money and this time is no different. I’ve been searching and searching to find everything I’ve looked at in the past and wanted, but couldn’t afford. One of my favorite pieces was this embroidered set. More proof that plus size lingerie can be just as fun, if not more fun, than lingerie for the little people.
For less than forty bucks I can have this great set and with the shipping added it’s still cheaper than what I would have paid retail. Not to mention the fact that shopping for plus size lingerie in traditional retail stores is nearly impossible. And since this was so cheap I was able to add a whole lot of other stuff too!
Plus size lingerie can be a difficult thing to shop for. The traditional retail stores and mall outlets generally don’t carry items in the size I and a lot of my friends need. We end up looking, choosing and enjoying but we rarely, if ever, enjoy buying. In addition, it’s not easy to ask the store clerks and personally I just don’t feel comfortable with it.
So when I started looking online for my lingerie needs I was pleased to see an enormous collection of top-quality, name-brand lingerie for me and all of my friends. I was sure to clue them in when I found your site. We all share the same disappointments with traditional stores and retailers. Your easy sizing and great service made it a joy for everyone!
We especially enjoy the smaller stringier stuff like the thongs and similar. It’s super nice to have such a great place to buy it too. The best part is that we can shop together and pick out what we BOTH like. No guessing and no embarrassing public conversations. We can shop discreetly, from the privacy of our own home. There’s no disturbances or the disappointment of shopping at the mall.
When it comes to plus-size lingerie you guys really shine. I can’t begin to tell you how much I appreciate being able to get so much great stuff so easily. I’m never disappointed with the products, the service or the prices. We know how to have fun and we can see that you do too!
I couldn’t resist posting this picture - It just makes me feel good to look at it - they look like they are having a real laugh.
It’s so unusual to find a store that has the things I want and need so thank God I found you guys! And what’s more, the prices are fair. I’ve noticed that a lot of places will use the plus sizes as an excuse to jack the price way up, which really irritates me. For right around forty bucks this beats the pants off of anything retail!
I’ve always wanted a traditional bustier but never could afford one. Until now that is! This is an unbeatable value from a great place to shop. Thanks so much!
Hi to whovever - I’m an internet newbie and found this blog at the LP website. It’s nice to find a place with other big gorgeous women. I’m looking forward to reading peoples comments about the lingerie and suggestions. I haven’t decided on my fabourite sexy lingerie so will have to come back with a picture (once I learn how to do that). See ya.
We get to shop for plus-size lingerie discreetly in a place designed just for us. We’re thrilled with your new products, we think they’re the greatest thing ever. No more wishing we could spice things up with skinny-people lingerie. We don’t need to now! We like to have fun too!
And thanks to you guys we’re doing it, and it doesn’t cost a fortune and we don’t have to go do it at the mall. We can shop right here from the privacy of our own home and your low-cost shipping makes it all worthwhile.
