Seasonal & Fantasy

The lingerie de Navidad and the seasonal-themed costumes have a practical peculiarity that should be taken into account: they are purchased for a specific date. That means that shipping time matters as much as size, and that an outfit that arrives late is of no use no matter how pretty it is. Here are the criteria that really help you choose well.

Buy in advance

It's the most useful tip in this entire section. The most common sizes of Christmas outfits sell out in mid-December, and if something doesn't fit well there is no time to change it.

With two or three weeks of margin you ensure stock, smooth shipping and the possibility of trying the set before the date. A disfraz sexy de Navidad purchased on the 22nd almost never turns out as planned.

##What the set actually includes

It is the most frequent complaint in this category and can be avoided by reading the card calmly. Many themed outfits are photographed with stockings, gloves, shoes or accessories that are not included.

Please check the list of contents before purchasing and fill in any missing items with Stockings & Garter Belts or Lingerie Accessories. It usually works out better so look for it at the last minute.

Sizes and elastic fabrics

Many themed pieces are sold as elastic one-size-fits-all, which in practice covers a limited range. If you are between sizes or looking for a comfortable fit, look at the specific product chart and not the generic label.

Also note that faux fur trim and applied trims do not give like the base fabric. If the outfit has a lot of rigid detail, it is usually better to go one size up to be able to move comfortably.

Care of embellished fabrics

Synthetic fur, sequins and rhinestones do not tolerate hot water or the centrifuge. Hand wash cold, without rubbing the ornament area and dry flat in the shade.

Store themed pieces hanging or folded with tissue paper between decorations so they don't get crushed until next year. Well stored, they last several seasons without problem. Exclusive sale for people over 18 years of age.

Discreet shipping from Lace & Luna

Orders arrive in plain, unbranded packaging, with no reference to the contents on the outside, and the bank charge is just as discreet. Details are at embalaje discreto. We are a family store and in high season we recommend buying with a margin.

Sizes in fantasy sets

The sizes in this category are smaller than usual and vary quite a bit between manufacturers, so the product measurement table always governs the size that is used daily. When in doubt, a size up is more flattering than a fair size.

Fabrics with elastane forgive a reasonable margin, but rigid pieces with corsetry, underwires or underwires do not give anything. In these cases, it is advisable to measure the chest and waist circumference before purchasing.

Care of ornaments and details

Lace, feathers, sequins and appliqués are not machine washable, even on a delicate cycle. They are hand washed in cold water, without rubbing or wringing, and dried flat on a towel so that the weight of the water does not deform the garment.

Feathered pieces are aired out rather than washed, and are stored hanging and uncompressed. A well-maintained outfit lasts several seasons, which is exactly what makes the purchase make sense.

What does the set include?

The product photo does not always match what arrives in the bag. Accessories such as stockings, gloves, garters or head accessories are usually sold separately even if they appear in the image, so it is a good idea to read the list of included parts before purchasing.

Complete sets that do come with everything usually indicate this explicitly, and are generally better priced than buying each piece separately.

Frequently asked questions

How far in advance should you buy?

Two or three weeks before the date. It ensures stock, unhurried shipping and time to try the set or change it if it doesn't fit.

Are stockings and accessories included?

Not always. Many photos include pieces that are sold separately, so it is a good idea to read the contents list on the product sheet.

Does one size fit all?

Covers a limited range. If you're between sizes, check the specific measurement chart instead of relying on the generic label.

How do you wash pieces with fur or sequins?

By hand and in cold water, without rubbing the decorations, and drying flat in the shade. Hot water and the dryer ruin them.

Can they be used outside of the theme date?

Many base pieces do, especially if you remove the most obvious decoration. Plain sets are the ones that are best reused.
