Sweet. Playful. The scalloped lace bralette sits high on the chest with a small ribbon bow at centre front, while the apron skirt below carries a wide lace ruffle that moves the moment you shift your weight. This French maid costume keeps the classic two-tone base and adds real, tactile lace detail rather than a plain flat trim. Scalloped lace bralette - a soft, structured triangle top with adjustable straps Centre ribbon bow - a small decorative closure at the bust Ruffle lace apron panel - a wide, layered trim set over the front of the skirt Fitted mini skirt base - sits at the natural waist with a short, above-the-knee hem Side hip clip closure - a small functional fastening at one hip Lace-edged hem - finishes the skirt in a soft, rounded line\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy It Belongs in Your Wardrobe\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou don't need a costume that treats the apron as an afterthought, you need one where the ruffle detail actually reads from across the room. This set gives you a genuinely dimensional apron panel instead of a flat printed rectangle, paired with a bralette soft enough to wear comfortably through a full evening. It's built for a themed party, a private evening, or any night that calls for a classic costume with a bit more texture than the basic version. That extra layer of ruffle is what keeps this from reading as a generic two-piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDesign Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u0026amp;amp; Benefits Wide lace ruffle panel: sits proud of the skirt for genuine visual depth rather than a flat print. Adjustable bralette straps: let you set the fit and coverage through the shoulders. Centre bow closure: a small, tidy detail that finishes the neckline. Not the stiff kind of ruffle - the lace layers move freely rather than holding a rigid shape. Hip clip fastening: a discreet closure that sits flat against the side seam. Scalloped edging throughout: softens every raw edge on both the bralette and the hem. Fit \u0026amp;amp; Comfort The bralette has stretch through the lace with adjustable straps for a personalised fit through the bust and shoulders. The skirt sits at the natural waist with a short, fitted hem, and the ruffle panel adds fullness at the front without adding bulk at the sides or back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStyle Story\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe French maid silhouette has stayed a costume staple for decades, and this version leans into the current appetite for romantic boudoir styling by layering genuine lace ruffle over a simple base rather than relying on a single printed panel. That extra dimension is the same instinct driving ruffle detailing back into everyday lingerie and eveningwear right now, texture over flat print. Keeping the classic two-tone colour story while updating the construction is exactly how a familiar costume idea stays current. Fabric \u0026amp;amp; Care The bralette and hem trim are a soft stretch lace, while the apron ruffle is a layered woven lace panel. Hand wash cold and lay flat to dry to protect the ruffle shape. Avoid wringing the lace, gently press out excess water instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStyling Tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen it arrives, shake out the ruffle panel so the layers sit properly before your first wear. Black stilettos continue the leg line under the short hem. For a themed night, add a simple choker to complete the character without overcomplicating the look. A soft robe keeps you comfortable while you finish getting ready. The smart move is adjusting the bralette straps before fastening the hip clip, it changes how the whole set sits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat Shoppers Notice Most\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis costume gets praise for how full the ruffle panel looks compared with flatter apron styles, and customers mention the bralette is comfortable enough for a full night out. Buyers appreciate the adjustable straps for getting a closer fit through the shoulders, and it's frequently noted as softer and more forgiving than stiffer vinyl-based maid sets. The scalloped trim is another detail shoppers call out as a finished, considered touch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Questions Answered\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eQ: What size should I order? A: This runs to standard costume sizing, and the adjustable bralette straps allow some flexibility either side of your usual size. Q: Is the apron ruffle attached or separate? A: The ruffle panel is fixed to the front of the skirt as one piece, so there's nothing extra to tie on. Q: Does the bralette have stretch? A: Yes, the lace has stretch through the body for a close, comfortable fit. Q: How does the hip clip work? A: A small clip fastening sits at one side seam and secures the skirt in place.

Add it to your basket and let the ruffle do the talking the moment you walk in.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lingerie Hut","offers":[{"title":"01 \/ S","offer_id":57257164145020,"sku":"1005011934746382-01-S","price":32.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"01 \/ M","offer_id":57257164112252,"sku":"1005011934746382-01-M","price":32.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"01 \/ L","offer_id":57257164079484,"sku":"1005011934746382-01-L","price":32.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"01 \/ XL","offer_id":57257164046716,"sku":"1005011934746382-01-XL","price":32.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"01 \/ XXL","offer_id":57257164243324,"sku":"1005011934746382-01-XXL","price":32.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"01 \/ 3XL","offer_id":57257164210556,"sku":"1005011934746382-01-3XL","price":32.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"01 \/ 4XL","offer_id":57257164177788,"sku":"1005011934746382-01-4XL","price":32.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/4729\/5786\/files\/lingeriehut-french-maid-costume-ruffle-trim-apron-sweet-confidence-101.webp?v=1786095392","url":"https:\/\/lingeriehut.co.uk\/products\/french-maid-costume-with-ruffle-trim-apron-sweet-confidence","provider":"Lingerie Hut","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
