Structured cups sit under a sheer mesh overlay, red ribbon bows mark the centre front and straps, and a matching choker finishes the neckline. Garter straps clip down from the hip, so the whole set is ready to go without you adding your own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLace apron patch stitched at the front\u003c\/strong\u003e - a real fabric apron detail instead of a printed-on shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStructured cups under sheer gingham mesh\u003c\/strong\u003e - keeps the bust shaped while the check print stays visible through the overlay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRed ribbon bow accents at the straps and bust\u003c\/strong\u003e - a bright detail against the gingham check without adding a second print\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGarter straps included at the hip\u003c\/strong\u003e - gives you the full pin-up shape without buying separate hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDesign Details and Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSheer mesh overlay with structured cups underneath\u003c\/strong\u003e - keeps the bust properly shaped even though the fabric on top is sheer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLace apron patch set at an angle across the front\u003c\/strong\u003e - reads as an actual apron detail rather than a flat printed graphic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lace apron patch is doing the job a printed-on shape usually fails at. Because it's a separate layer of fabric rather than ink on the gingham check, it actually catches shadow and sits slightly proud of the base, which is what sells the maid idea at a glance rather than just hinting at it. The trade-off is coverage: the mesh overlay is sheer through the torso above the apron patch, so this reads as a piece you'd wear under something sheer or keep for indoors, not one you'd wear out on its own. The garter straps have visible clip hardware at the ends, ready to attach to your own hold-ups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFit and Coverage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cups are structured and fitted, the torso is sheer mesh over a lace apron patch, and it sits short at the hip with garter straps hanging below, so coverage is structured up top and sheer through the middle and legs. Compare your measurements to our size chart before you order, and if you're between sizes, size up. Fit shifts a little with torso length, and that extra bit of room tends to sit better than going too snug.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFabric and Care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's a sheer gingham mesh with structured cups and a separate lace apron patch; we don't have an exact fibre breakdown to give you. We'd suggest a gentle hand wash in cool water and laying it flat to dry, away from direct heat, which keeps the shape and finish intact for longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStyling Tips\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClip your sheer black hold-ups onto the garter straps for a finished pin-up line.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA red lip matches the ribbon bow accents on your costume without adding another accessory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep your jewellery to stud earrings only, the choker is already doing the neckline's job.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails You'll Love\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe gingham print does something most maid costumes don't, it reads as an actual dress pattern rather than a costume-store shortcut, so you'll still love how it looks under normal light, not just party lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Questions Answered\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat size gingham maid costume should I pick if I'm between sizes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSize up.
