[Lingerie Review] Lovehoney Moonlight Wine Crotchless Plunge Body

Published on by Amy

Before I started this blog, I was very definitely Not A Lingerie Person. I haven’t owned a bra that isn’t a sports bra in years. My knickers are more likely to be practical and comfy than small and lacy. With that said, I thought I’d broaden my horizons when I was offered the chance to try something from the Lovehoney Moonlight range. Eventually I chose this Crotchless Plunge Bodysuit in a shade Lovehoney calls “wine.”

Being, as I’ve mentioned, Not A Lingerie Person and someone with a complicated relationship with her body, I was worried that this piece either wouldn’t fit me or that I’d just look ridiculous and feel about as sexy as a blob.

So how did I actually get on?

Lovehoney Moonlight Crotchless Plunge Bodysuit

This bodysuit features plunging underwired cups, lace accents, and adjustable shoulder straps for a comfortable fit. It is available in sizes from Small (UK 6-8) up to 4XL (UK 22-24).

The shade (well-named, it really is close to the colour of red wine!) is stunning, and the lace and ribbon accents are stylish and feminine without being “too much.” The satiny ribbon around the middle is a really nice touch that completes the look for me. I love how it accentuates my waist, which I think is one of my best features.

The material is a mix of polyester satin and lace. It looks beautiful together and feels soft and comfortable against the skin. I don’t love that it’s made of a non-sustainable fibre, though. I tend to shy away from lace because it can be so scratchy, and my skin is very sensitive to textures, but this lace avoids that problem.

Fit and Sizing

As is so often the case with lingerie made to clothing sizes rather than bra sizes, the cups run a bit small if you’re big-busted. My G-cups were falling out of the Lovehoney Moonlight Bodysuit even when the rest of the piece was true to size. I also just really can’t wear underwired pieces for any length of time as they’re absolute sensory hell for me.

Lovehoney Moonlight Bodysuit: Verdict

This piece really is beautiful, but the fit just isn’t quite right for me and my large chest, unfortunately. I enjoyed wearing it for a short time but I think I’ll be passing it on to someone who can get more enjoyment from it than I can.

This piece retails for £39.99/$49.99.
