Tonight, for the first time in years, I visited the Trashy Lingerie website.
I don't think I'd been on the site since...1999? Back when it was really just a photo brochure and they didn't carry anything above size 12. You had to actually visit the store to buy anything, and in order to get in, you needed to pay for a membership and make appointments. I could fit in their stuff back then, but the price and hoop-jumping pissed me off.
Well, check this. They have *plus sizes* now. Granted, I have no clue how truly, workably "plus" the sizes really are, but I have hope. It appears that they do bra band sizes through 42, which isn't amazing, but is more than serviceable for people like me. They also carry "corsetry" and a small range of costumes, which they appear to fit by band size (ugh) or via a stretchy "one size" approach.
Nothing really pops out at me as particularly unique (you can get prettier stuff at Hips & Curves), but it's not bad at first blush. What I'm hoping is that eventually, they'll segue their smashing straight-size costume line into plus (I really want the Carmen corset ensemble BIG TIME). I think they do customs in larger sizes at the moment, but that adds extra expense and hassle.
Anyway, anybody have experience with the Trashy plus line? I'm curious.
