Seafoam Stretch-Lace Romper with Adjustable Tie Waist Curve P135

What this is

The Seafoam Stretch-Lace Romper with Adjustable Tie Waist is a one-piece lace romper from Curve, the plus-size line by Fantasy Lingerie, carrying style number P135. It is cut in a sheer pale seafoam floral stretch lace, finished with black contrast binding at the neckline, a black satin drawstring at the waist and a snap closure.

A romper is a single garment rather than a set: the bodice and the brief are joined at the waist seam, so there is nothing to coordinate and nothing to keep tucked in. This one sits in the Romper section of our Lingerie range, and in the Curve collection specifically.

The lace and the cut

The fabric is an open stretch floral lace in a soft, pale seafoam green — a mint shade rather than a saturated teal. Large rose and leaf motifs are worked into a fine mesh ground, and because that ground is open, the whole garment is sheer front and back. That is the design of the piece, not a lining that has been left out of it.

The silhouette does several things at once. The neckline is a deep V at the front, repeated as an equally deep V across the back, and both are edged in a narrow black satin binding that draws a clean dark line against the pale lace. At the centre back, where the two sides of the V meet, a short black ribbon ties in a small bow — a detail visible only from behind.

The shoulders are cut wide and sit softly off the shoulder rather than sitting squarely on it. From there the sleeves flutter open, falling to roughly the elbow in a kimono-style drape rather than a fitted tube, and the lace finishes in a scalloped edge. The same scalloped edging runs along the brief-cut leg openings at the hem, so the garment has no raw or bound edge at either end — the lace pattern itself forms the border.

At the waist, the lace is gathered into a soft blouson and a black satin drawstring runs through the channel, tying in a bow at the centre front. That tie is what the product name means by "adjustable": drawing it in defines the waist and lifts the bodice into a fuller blouson, while leaving it loose lets the whole piece fall straight and tunic-like over the brief. It is the one part of the fit you set yourself.

Product specifications

How to wear it

Set the waist drawstring first, because it changes the garment more than anything else about it. Drawn in tightly, the romper has a defined middle and a bloused top; loosened off, it hangs as a straight lace tunic over the brief. The same piece reads quite differently either way, and both are correct — the drawstring is there to be retied as often as you like.

The black binding and the black waist ribbon are a deliberate contrast against the seafoam rather than a tonal match, so this is a two-colour garment. That is worth knowing if you are thinking about what to pair it with, or what to layer over it.

The wide, off-the-shoulder neckline is part of how the piece hangs. It is cut to slip rather than to sit high, so the front and back V both stay deep as the garment settles.

Care and handling

Follow the sewn-in care label inside the garment — that is the manufacturer's own instruction and it is the one that governs. As general practice with fine stretch lace of this kind, hand washing in cool water with a gentle detergent is kinder than a machine cycle, bleach is best kept well away from a dyed pastel, and reshaping the piece and drying it flat away from direct heat is what keeps the stretch in the mesh.

Open lace catches on things. Rings, long nails, hook-and-loop fastenings and the hooks inside a wardrobe will all snag a mesh ground like this one, so take rings off before handling it and store it folded flat or on a padded hanger rather than a wire one. Dark trim on a pale ground is also worth washing on its own the first time.

Who it's for

This is a plus-size garment: Curve is Fantasy Lingerie's plus-size line and the packaging is marked accordingly. Choose your size from the options listed on this page.

It suits someone who would rather have one garment than a matched set. The flutter sleeves and the tunic-length bodice give more coverage across the shoulders and upper arms than a bra-and-brief set does, while the lace itself stays sheer throughout — so it reads as a softer, more draped shape without being any less open a fabric. The adjustable waist also makes it a sensible choice if you sit between sizes, or simply like to change how a piece sits on you.

For adults 18 and over.

Good to know

• The lace is sheer throughout. There is no lining and no opaque panel anywhere on the garment.
• The packaging lists a snap closure as the fastening. No zip, hook-and-eye row or side opening appears on the garment.
• The waist tie is a functional drawstring threaded through a channel, not a decorative applied bow — it loosens, tightens and reties.
• The neckline is cut wide and off the shoulder, front and back, with a deep V on both sides.
• Keep delicate lace away from direct heat, including tumble dryers, irons and radiators.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the waist on the P135 romper adjustable?

Yes. A black satin drawstring runs through a gathered channel at the waist and ties in a bow at the centre front, so you set how closely the romper is drawn in. Tightening it creates a bloused bodice and a defined waist; leaving it loose lets the piece fall straight as a lace tunic.

Is this romper see-through?

Yes, the seafoam floral lace is sheer at the front and at the back. It is an open stretch mesh with raised rose and leaf motifs worked into it, and the garment carries no lining, so it is semi-transparent by design rather than by oversight.

How does the romper fasten?

It fastens with a snap closure, which is how the packaging describes it. No zip, hook-and-eye row or side opening appears anywhere on the garment, so the snaps are the only fastening on the one-piece.

What size range does the Curve line cover?

Curve is the plus-size line from Fantasy Lingerie, and this style is marked as plus size on its packaging. Select your size from the options listed on this page, since the sizes carried differ from one style to another.

How is this order packaged for delivery?
