The Maggie Babydoll By Elomi

2 Mar

I don’t think I’m wrong in saying that when you have a larger bust you can sometimes struggle with finding items that small busted women have readily available to them. And for me, one of those items is a babydoll.
I’ve tried out various items from Ann Summers, however, they have always been far too small in the bust and far too big in the band. And so when I saw that Elomi had released the Maggie babydoll I immediately wanted to try it!

Maggie, 36-42 bands, F-GG cups

Maggie, 36-42, F-GG

Sadly, Maggie stops at a GG cup. However, not to be defeated, I decided to try it in a 38GG, the sister size to my 36H. As babydolls are ‘bedroom’ attire, I figured it would be something I could get away with.

Thankfully, Maggie has quite a firm band. The 38GG arrived, and it fit me rather well.

The three hooks and eyes and fully adjustable straps were as welcome as always. I adored the keyhole detail below the backband, and the length was perfect on me. The shape the cups gave me was glorious, especially for non padded cups.

The cups fit very well on me, although it would have been nice if they were a bit higher at the sides. And if I were to be really picky, I would love it if someone made large cupped babydolls that nipped in at the waist a little more. As whilst Maggie worked for me in terms of fit, I can’t help but think she would have been more flattering if I had a little more waist definition.

What are your thoughts on babydolls? Have you found any that fit? Do you love them, loathe them?

    I have had a hell of a time trying to find sexy lingerie! I am always on the lookout for pretty bedroom attire but everything I find in stores that I like (ie not uber-frumpy) is always too small. I will have to check this out, thanks! My husband will be thrilled ;)

    Gosh, I think you look absolutely lovely! I’ve been thinking about trying a bra-sized babydoll, and seeing how stunning you look is making seriously consider my next purchase.

      What is the sister size for a 36HH?

      • Lexie March 5, 2013 at 12.53 #

        Typically, sister sizes go up a band size and down a cup size. The sister sizes for a 36HH would be: 38H, 40GG, 42G.

    I really wish they’d carry this style amongst other Eveden groups in a wider range of styles! It looks gorgeous and I’d love to have a Babydoll. Can’t wait for Curvy Kate’s!!!!

      I think by definition, a babydoll falls from just below the bust in an empire style. If your babydoll had a more defined waist, it wouldn’t really be a babydoll anymore. That being said, I think on you it looks nice – you don’t have to nip in your waist when it’s strictly bedtime attire ;-) Looser fit means easier access for the partner!

        I have to completely agree with Jinja here: It looks gorgeous on you!
