Quick Answer
For the Lydie Strappy Cut Out Teddy, choose your usual lingerie size based on your bust and hip measurements, but expect the open cup top and halter neck to fit snugly. The stretchy microfiber and wide elastic bands offer some give, so if you're between sizes, size up for comfort.
Why the Lydie Teddy Fits Differently
Unlike a full-coverage bodysuit, this teddy has an open cup design and halter neck strapping, which means the bust area is less about encapsulation and more about positioning. The wide elastic details at the sides and legs help hold the teddy in place, but they also create a firm fit that some may find snug.
The shiny microfiber fabric has minimal vertical stretch, so the length from shoulder to gusset is relatively fixed. If you have a long torso, the teddy may feel shorter than expected. The cheeky G-string back adds to the minimal coverage feel, so hip measurement matters more for the leg openings than for overall length.
Who This Teddy Works Best For
The Lydie Strappy Cut Out Teddy is designed for those with a B to D cup who want a bold, open look. The halter neck provides lift, but larger busts may find the open cup less supportive. For smaller busts, the strappy details add visual interest without gaping.
If you have a defined waist and hips, the wide elastic bands will accentuate your curves. For straight body types, the cutouts and strapping create the illusion of curves. The teddy is less ideal for very tall individuals or those who prefer full back coverage.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I measure for the Lydie Teddy?
Measure your bust at the fullest part, your waist at the narrowest point, and your hips at the widest point. Compare your measurements to the size chart for the teddy. Since the fabric has stretch, your usual lingerie size is a good starting point.
Will the open cup top work for my bust size?
The open cup is designed for B to D cups. If you are larger, the halter neck may still provide lift, but the cups will not fully contain the bust. If you are smaller, the cups may gap slightly, but the strappy design minimizes that look. Consider your comfort with partial coverage before purchasing.
What if I have a long torso?
The teddy's length is fixed due to the microfiber fabric's limited vertical stretch. If you are 5'8" or taller, the teddy may ride up or feel short. Measure from your shoulder to your crotch and compare to the garment's length if available. If you are tall, you may prefer a teddy with more vertical stretch.
How do I adjust the halter neck?
The halter neck ties behind your neck. Tie it securely but not too tight, as overtightening can cause neck strain. The strapping should lift the bust without pulling the teddy upward excessively. Test the halter adjustment before wearing for extended periods.
Can I wear this teddy as a bodysuit under clothes?
The cheeky G-string back and open cup top make it less suitable as a hidden undergarment. It is designed as statement lingerie for intimate moments or bedroom wear.
