I'm looking for something for my Wifey for christmas, something along the line of a chemise or babydoll that she can wear as sleepwear.
I need something thats not too closely fitted, as I bought her this: http://www.figleaves.com/uk/product.asp?product_id=TF-30673 for her birthday, and although she loves it, can't sleep in it. I also needs to be not too "see-through".
Size wise, she's just under 5 foot, usually a 10-12 in dresses, with a 36D top, just incase any of that helps with style choices.
I'm hoping that some of the lovely ladies here can guide me, as I've got a fantastic track record of buying her lingerie that looks fantastic until she tries it on.
It's got adjustable straps and the cups were realistic (as opposed to only fitting a B cup). It's not see through, but it does have an open back. Looked quite comfy to me, though the clasp may not stand up to a night's sleep!
The quality was just fantastic and the colours are exquisite. Ah... want!
Picking the correct size may be interesting, as it seems the "medium 10-12" is up to a 36C, and she's a D...
I think I'd be shot at dawn if I got her something with a "large" size stamped in the label, even if it does fit! The babydoll is one size though, so that could work well.

Good point about the returns policy. I'm still looking, and I hope to order something earlyish tomorrow, as I've managed to get time off work Monday and Tuesday, so I should be able to get it delivered when she's not about.
I've found that the top half of the chemises/babydolls that have a lacy and stretchy design are more accommodating for the bigger chested women. They're really comfortable too. Also flowy light fabrics at the bottom half feel great for bedtime and won't pull so much or feel restricting. They're really beautiful too.
I'm not sure if you ordered yet or not... I think they're both really good. Just depends on your wife's taste. Does she like wearing shorts or anything underneath whilst in bed or does she prefer just a long top?
The cami and shorts are really cute and the top and robe set is practical and still sultry. I think you're onto a win with both. The reds look really nice in both. =]
Ps. I didn't buy it lol, this thread may have helped someone else to decide to get it though. =P
Wow, yes that really is lush KP. Order has now gone through, I went for the chemise and robe set, though it was hard to choose between that and the cami and shorts.
Thanks to everyone again for the advice. It's really helpful getting a female view on this kind of thing!
The http://www.lovehoney.co.uk/product.cfm?p=3151 I bought looks lovely, but my Wifey didn't get on with it. The main problem I think was the "low back". Now, when I read that, I was thinking its low on the back. In this case its actually low on the bum!
So, I'm going to be packing it up, and sorting out a return, but I need a replacement.
im not to keen on the ones you picked out, they look a bit cheap to me :-/
i like the first one wanda has listed

The first one WandA listed is the same as the cami and shorts set TC picked - just a chemise version External Media
I think the Sunburst one looks cheap and longer than the one you've already tried TC!
I'm not allowed to look at the mo for you because I've got work :( but I'm sure you'll get lots of help from the other members :) they're good like that ;)

the first one wanda picked shows as black, but when i click on the red one to see what that looks like it then looks cheap like the cami and shorts :-/ think the red doesnt look so good in pics compaired to the black.
