Looking for a lingerie review or more information on a product before purchasing? You’ve come to the right place.

In this series, we’re sharing our favorite styles (and a few reasons why you’re sure to love them too.)

Adriana Lace Babydoll

Construction

The Adriana Lace Babydoll is a supportive babydoll with wireless lace cups and a flirty, flowy microfiber body. The wireless lace cups are made of stretch lace and lined for opacity. The soft lace cups with center vertical seams shape the bust for a flattering silhouette. The cup seams are enclosed for maximum comfort.

Side boning smoothes sides and helps to help the band from rolling up. The multi-hook closure ensures a supportive fit for full busts. The wide, adjustable straps provide comfort for shoulders and make it easy to customize the fit. A J-hook converts the style from regular to racerback.

Fit

The fit of the Adriana Lace Babydoll is both supportive and comfortable. The wire-free cup design makes this an excellent babydoll to wear to sleep when you want a little support for your bust. The cups of the Adriana Lace Babydoll (and Adriana Lace Bralette) suit a multitude of breast shapes.

This style features a wide bra band with side boning and a hook and eye closure. This means that the portion of this babydoll will fit similarly to your favorite bralette. The racerback style helps keep straps from falling off narrow shoulders, too.

The flowy fit of the skirt glides over curves with ease. The wide band highlights the waist for a flattering fit. This is a great babydoll for pear shape and hourglass body types.

A few fit notes: The fit of the band is snug. If you’re looking for a supportive babydoll to sleep in or wear at home, you may want to opt for your sister size (one band size bigger and one cup size smaller) to get a comfortable fit.

Sleep bras should feel comfortable and lightly supportive with breast tissue completely contained within the cups. Straps should be adjusted just enough so you can fit two fingers between your skin and the strap. You should also be able to comfortably breathe in and out and move around without any pain or discomfort from your bra.

Keep in mind that you may move around in your sleep, so you’ll want a bra that moves with you, not against you. Avoid anything restrictive or tight.

How to style the Adriana Lace Babydoll

Adriana Lace Babydoll in Raspberry

The Adriana Lace Babydoll is a beautiful lace babydoll perfect for Valentine’s Day, a date night at home, sleeping or lounging around the house. The lace bralette looks stunning peeking out of a microfiber or modal robe while the flowy fit feels incredibly comfortable on. Though this is an effortlessly chic style that looks and feels amazing, one of the best features of the Adriana Lace Babydoll is its supportive fit. If you’ve been looking for a supportive babydoll with wireless cups that won’t dig into your curves, this style might just be your new favorite.

The Adriana Lace Babydoll is available in Black, Pearl White, Sky Blue, Mulberry, and Raspberry.

Care

washing bras

Proper care is crucial if you want your lingerie to last. We recommend washing lingerie in cold water and avoiding the dryer at all costs. Hand washing lingerie is the gentlest option (as it involves the least amount of agitation), but machine washing on the delicate cycle is also an option if you don’t have time to hand wash. If you do machine wash your bras, be sure to hook them first, separate the colors (bright colors may bleed onto your light-colored bras), and sort them into mesh lingerie bags. Panties should also be sorted by color and placed in separate bags so the bra hooks don’t snag delicate underwear.

To wash, use a gentle detergent or laundry soap designed for lingerie and wash them on a delicates cycle in cold water. Once they’re washed, either hang dry them (drape the center front of the bra over the hanger – don’t hang a wet bra by its straps) or lay them flat to dry (away from sunlight which can cause the colors to fade over time) with the cups facing up.

Lastly, be extra careful when storing your lingerie. For molded bras, line them up in a drawer with the cups facing up – one bra in front of the other. Unlined bras, bralettes, and non-molded sports bras can be folded in half and stacked on top of each other to save space. Panties can be folded and sorted by color or style in a lingerie drawer. Babydolls, chemises, and bodysuits can be on hangers in the closet or folded in a drawer. Bustiers and corsets often require special care, so they’re best kept in a drawer away from dust and sunlight.

One last thing…

Education is a big part of my job as a bra fitter. I feel fortunate to be partnering with Parfait on creating lingerie-related content with the goal of helping readers make educated and empowered shopping decisions. There is so much to bra fitting that we can’t cover in a single blog post, so the goal since the very beginning of the blog has been to tackle it one article at a time.
