As a guy,I miss the sleek finish.These are more of a net.Nice cheeky feel though & the strings have a nice finish.I bought these knickers for my girlfriend as a surprise. My other reason was that they were made in Italy. I mention where they are made for a reason. It seems the vast majority of lingerie garments (which include basques, bustiers, suspender belts and knickers),are made in China. More often than not when they are made in China, they have been rubbish. Again, more often than not, these so called quality items have been sold at vastly inflated prices.My girlfriend and I have found this out to our cost.When you see that these knickers are made in Italy, you expect quality. This is exactly what you have here. They are a true size and are quality.This is a gorgeous panty, true to size fitting looks sexy, one of the best panties I've bought will be reordering ?Rihanna xBellissimo tanga dal taglio classico . Tessuto trasparente molto raffinato, delicato sulla pelle , una perfetta aderenza per quel tocco di eleganza e sensualità . Forse sarebbe servito un taglio leggermente più sgambato e più ridotto nella copertura nella parte posteriore. Consiglio vivamente l'acquisto di questo indumento intimo.Ik heb vandaag me bestelling binnen van me nieuwe string bikini van cosabella, in de kleur navy blue en maat m ,de lingerie is echt heel mooi en past perfect, dit is mijn vierde bestelling en ben zeer tevreden met dit merk,het mooiste vind ik van deze bikini dat het heel transparant is,en dat geeft een bijzonder gevoel en daar hou ik van,dankjewel cosabella voor deze lingerieSehr schöner Slip, passt perfekt und ist sehr angenehm zu tragen.
