I spotted a sexy outfit at a tiny price: the bodystocking by Lovehoney. This bodystocking, or bodystocking in English, is an all-in-one garment: a mini-dress, a garter belt and tights. All fused into a single piece of fabric.
Subtle, but sexy, this garment seemed to make a rather nice little outfit for going out to a libertine club. Here’s our review of this full-body tights with a garter belt.

Packaging of the bodystocking
The packaging is simple, but presentable: black and pink, made of cardboard, it looks like a tights box, quite classic.
First impressions
The Lovehoney bodystocking is a stretchy, body-hugging garment, entirely black, with lace.
The fabric
The fabric that makes up the Lovehoney bodystocking is very elastic. The label states: label states:: 100% nylon, the material that used to make up stockings and tights. to make up stockings and tights. Visually, it’s comparable to what’s called an opaque pair of tights. The garment is translucent enough to hint at the shapes, without actually showing what’s hidden underneath. As for durability, it’s on the same scale. Let’s say if you let a cat scratch it, or if you walk through a patch of brambles wearing it, there will definitely be some damage. But otherwise, the fabric shouldn’t snag at the first pull. If you look closely, at the few loose threads here and there and the lack of refined embellishments, you can tell you’re not dealing with an ultra-luxurious outfit… But for less than €20, you’d have to expect that. The instructions on the packaging and label recommend a hand wash, but

, it’s fine. SizingThe Lovehoney garter bodystocking only comes in a
single size
. Given the stretchiness of the fabric, I’d say, roughly, that it can suit people who usually wear clothing sizes between 36 and 40. However, not having a variety of differently-sized test subjects on hand to try out clothes, I’ve only seen how it looks on myself. The top of the Lovehoney garter bodystockingAt the neckline, the Lovehoney bodystocking has a strip of lace. This fastens at the back with a press stud. The dress area moulds the upper body, faintly revealing the tips of the breasts through the fabric, without actually showing them.
The garter section
The part dress reaches down to the lower hips, after which, you move into the garter, leaving genitals, buttocks and upper thighs visible. . Two bands of lace per leg, one in front, one behind, hold the stockings in place. It’sstitched directly
, with no adjustment system. It’s certainly not ultra-sophisticated, and as you move, the stockings can end up at slightly different heights… But it has the merit of never coming off. Now, if you know a trick to keep regular garter belts from deciding to detach on their own, I’d love to hear it.
The stockings Opaque or nearly so, the stockings on this garter bodystocking are topped with the same type of lace of lace as the neckline and the bottom of the dress.
Comfort
The tights are soft, the dress is too, the fabric is supple, nothing pulls, nothing scratches: you almost feel like you’re wearing a pyjama. In terms of comfort, the Lovehoney bodystocking is impeccable. With these repeated materials from top to bottom, there’s a certain harmony, while staying understated.
Conclusion on the Lovehoney bodystocking
Pros:
- It’s an outfit understated, but harmonious and sexy.
- It’s comfortable.
- Its very low price : under €20.
The downsides:
- The finishes may give away that it’s a low-cost. But then again, at this price, that’s only to be expected.
Well, it’s certainly not high fashion, but the garter bodystocking Lovehoney remains a garment really great for the price, and sexy while still maintaining a certain restraintLeaving the intimate areas exposed while covering a large area of skin, it’s a look that can really come into its own on a libertine night out, for anyone who wants to show off their sexiness without going all neon, bling-bling or sparkly… Or to wear in the bedroom, so you don’t necessarily have to strip everything off before getting down to business…
