Review: Dreamgirl Spanish Fly Open Crotch Panty (L)

Summary:
I squeezed my ample fundament into these, because I couldn't resist the look. I really could do with a 1X size. They're really way too snug on me, but I love them anyway. I just wish they came in plus sizes.

Pros:
So sexy!
Makes my ass look great


Cons:
No plus sizes
No colour options



What it is … how to wear it
This is a sexy crotchless panty with a strappy back that accents the ass and shows it off to excellent advantage. 


Packaging
The packaging is a simple cardboard sleeve with a photo of the model on the front and sizing information on the back.

Material & Care
90% polyester
10% spandex/elastane
Hand wash cold, line dry

Design
I love the design of these knickers. The band, centre front opening, and back straps are red elastic. The front is two black mesh panels to the right and left of centre, with two black satin bows where they meet in the middle. The leg openings are black and red lace.

The back is where it really shines though. From the centre back of the band, four more red straps go out at angles to meet the leg openings, making a lovely ass framing style. There's another black satin bow where all the straps meet.

Along the crotch opening, there is only two pieces of the leg lace, making access easy, without friction or irritation to either partner.

Sizing & Fit
The packaging claims that this fits 140-160 lbs, 65-75 kg. I'm 150 lbs, and this baaaaaarely fits. The front pulls open, the leg lace is extremely snug, and all the elastic in it is stretched to its maximum. However, the Dreamgirl sizing chart on Eden says that their large size is for hip measurements 38-40".

My measurements:
5'3" height
150 lbs weight
40B cups
41" bust
38" waist
44" hips

For this piece, I recommend going by the hip measurement to choose your size.

Specific Measurements (unstretched) 

hip/waist circumference: 29 1/2"
leg circumference: 22"
crotch length, centre front to centre back: 17 1/2"
front panel centre front length: 4"
front panel side length: 2 1/2"
front panel width: 15"
lace width: 1 1/4" at widest point

If you would like any additional measurements, please let me know and I will try to provide them.

Quality, Comfort and Wearability

This is an inexpensive panty and cannot be said to be made from high quality material. However, I found no flaws in its construction. I wouldn't wear them as an everyday panty, but I'd be daring enough to wear them on a date - if they actually fit me. If they did, I imagine they'd be perfectly comfortable. As it is, I only slip them on at home, when I want to surprise the boyfriend.

Final Thoughts and Rating
I can't fault Dreamgirl for my ass not fitting into a panty that is too small, but I do fault them for not making this available in a plus size. If I could buy it in my size, this would be a five star product. As it is, I can only give them 4 stars.

Verdict: 4 out of 5 stars
