Plus Size Mesh & Sheer Teddies

Plus Size Mesh & Sheer Teddies buying guide

This page lists every plus-size mesh, fishnet and sheer teddy we stock, including seamless one-size styles and teddies with lined cups or briefs. The products above are the whole range. The sections below cover how sheer fabrics differ and how to pick the right one, written from the questions customers ask us most.

Sizing and fit

Plus sizes are labelled three ways in this range: Queen or 1X/2X, XL/2XL, and 3X/4X. They are not interchangeable between makers, so measure your bust at the fullest point, your natural waist and your hips at the widest point, and match all three against the chart on the product rather than the letter on the label.

A teddy runs from shoulder to crotch, so torso length matters as much as width. If you are long in the body, or between sizes, go up: a teddy that is too short pulls at the shoulders and cuts in at the crotch however well it fits at the bust. Seamless and one-size pieces stretch a long way; check the size range on the listing rather than assuming they fit everyone.

Materials and what they demand

Power mesh is smooth and firm and holds the body lightly. Fishnet is open and stretchy and gives a bolder look. Seamless knit teddies are made in one piece without side seams, so they lie smooth on curves.

Fully sheer pieces show everything. Teddies with lined cups, opaque briefs or strategically placed panels give the sheer look while covering what you choose.

Care that preserves it

Hand wash in cool water with a mild detergent, press the water out in a towel rather than wringing, and dry flat or over a rail away from direct heat. Fasten every hook before washing so it cannot snag, and never tumble dry: heat is what kills elastic.

Fishnet catches easily: keep it away from Velcro, jewellery and rough nails, and store it folded rather than hung.
