Scallop Stretch Lace Chemise - Plus Size

The Scallop Stretch Lace Chemise in Plus Size is a sophisticated lingerie piece designed to blend comfort with elegant allure. Featuring a soft underwire cup and adjustable straps, this chemise offers supportive shaping for a variety of body types, while the two-tone lace and ruched skirt add visual depth and texture. It is ideal for those seeking a flattering fit that enhances natural curves without compromising on style or ease of movement.

Design and Fit Details

This chemise is crafted with a focus on both aesthetic appeal and structural support. The inclusion of a soft underwire cup ensures that the bust is gently lifted and defined, providing a silhouette that is both flattering and secure. The underwire is designed to be comfortable against the skin, avoiding the rigidity often associated with traditional undergarments. To ensure a personalized fit, the chemise features adjustable straps, allowing the wearer to customize the length and support level to their preference. This adaptability makes it suitable for various body shapes and heights, ensuring that the garment sits correctly on the torso without slipping or riding up.

The bodice is finished with an elasticized underbust band, which helps to smooth the midsection and provide additional support to the bust. This feature works in tandem with the underwire to create a seamless transition from the bust to the waist, enhancing the overall shape. The fabric utilizes stretch lace, which conforms to the body’s contours while maintaining its intricate pattern. The two-tone lace details add a layer of visual interest, contrasting subtly to highlight the craftsmanship of the garment. This design choice adds a touch of modern elegance, making it appropriate for both intimate occasions and special events.

Skirt and Closure Features

Below the bodice, the chemise transitions into a ruched skirt. The ruching technique gathers the fabric in a way that adds volume and texture, creating a flowing effect that drapes gracefully over the hips and thighs. This design element not only adds aesthetic appeal but also offers a forgiving fit that accommodates different hip measurements. The skirt’s length and drape are designed to elongate the figure, providing a balanced proportion between the upper and lower body.

For ease of wear and removal, the chemise features a back keyhole closure secured with hook and eye fasteners. This closure is positioned to allow for easy access while maintaining a sleek back profile. The keyhole detail adds a subtle touch of allure, revealing a small amount of skin at the upper back, which can be a stylish accent depending on the wearer’s preference. The hook and eye mechanism is durable and designed to withstand repeated use, ensuring that the garment stays securely in place throughout the day or evening.

Sizing and Material Considerations

The Scallop Stretch Lace Chemise is available in plus sizes, specifically catering to 1X/2X and 3X/4X ranges. The sizing is designed to accommodate a wide range of body measurements, with specific guidelines for bust, waist, and hip dimensions. For the 1X/2X size, the dress size corresponds to 18-20, with a bust measurement of 44-50 inches, a waist of 36-42 inches, and hips of 46-52 inches. The cup size for this range is DD to H.

The stretch lace material is chosen for its ability to move with the body, offering flexibility and comfort. This fabric is durable yet soft, resisting snagging while maintaining its shape over time. Care instructions should be followed to preserve the integrity of the lace and the elasticity of the fabric, typically involving gentle hand washing or delicate machine cycles. Proper care will extend the lifespan of the chemise, keeping it looking fresh and vibrant.
