Lace by LJ Crochet Bodystocking with Lace Up Back Review

The good and the bad

What works

• Faux lace-up back gives a corset look with nothing to actually tie
• All-in-one design means no suspender clips or straps to adjust
• Nylon and spandex blend stretches to follow the body
• V-neck front and high-cut leg create the look of a full set
• Wide-weave crochet offers a bold, textured peek-a-boo finish

What to be aware of

• Delicate net is hand wash only, with no ironing or tumble drying
• One size means a less reliable fit at the edges of the 6-12 range
• The open wide weave is revealing and won't suit everyone's taste
• Fine net fabrics of this type can be prone to snagging

Buy it if

Anyone within the UK 6-12 range who wants a dramatic, one-piece statement with the polished look of a coordinated set and none of the fiddly clips or ties.

Skip it if

If you sit at the far ends of the size range or want fuller coverage, look to an adjustable set or a garment offered in graded sizes rather than one-size. Those who dislike a very open weave should consider a fine-mesh or opaque style instead.

Design And Detail

The whole piece is built from a bold crochet net, so the texture is the point rather than an accent. The v-neck front flows into faux suspender straps and a high-cut leg, which together mimic the outline of a stockings-and-basque set without any of the separate components. That means nothing to clip and nothing to slip.

The back is the genuine talking point. The lace-up is sewn straight into the netting, so it reads as a laced corset from behind while requiring no tying and offering no adjustment. That is a fair trade for most people: you lose the ability to tighten or loosen, but you gain a look that stays put and takes no effort to achieve.

Fabric And Fit

At 95% nylon and 5% spandex, the fabric has real stretch, which is what lets a single garment claim to cover UK 6-12. The spandex helps the net hold its shape as it moulds to the body, while the nylon gives that characteristic fine, slightly glossy net finish.

One-size sizing is always a compromise. Someone at a UK 6 may find the weave sits more loosely, while a UK 12 will stretch it taut, which naturally opens the net wider. It is worth being realistic: this is designed to fit a range, not to be tailored to any one figure, so the effect will vary across that span.

Care And Keeping

This is a hand-wash-only garment, with no ironing, tumble drying or bleaching. That is standard for fine net, but it does mean a little ongoing care rather than tossing it in with the rest of the wash.

Wash gently in cool water, reshape while damp and dry flat away from direct heat. Following that routine protects both the stretch and the open weave. As with any fine net, be mindful of rings, nails and rough surfaces, since a wide crochet weave can catch and snag if handled carelessly.

How It Compares

Against a traditional suspender belt with separate stockings, this bodystocking wins on convenience: everything is integrated, so there is nothing to fasten and nothing to fall down. The trade-off is that you cannot mix and match or adjust individual elements.

Compared with a plain fishnet bodystocking, the crochet weave and faux lace-up back give it more visual drama and a more finished, corset-inspired silhouette. If you prefer subtlety or fuller coverage, a fine-mesh one-piece would be the gentler alternative; if you want a bold statement in a single step, this style is squarely aimed at you.

The bottom line

The Lace by LJ Crochet Bodystocking is a confident, low-effort way to achieve the look of a full lingerie set, with its sewn-in lace-up back doing the heavy lifting. If you fall comfortably within the UK 6-12 range, welcome an open weave and don't mind hand washing, it is an easy recommendation; those wanting a precise fit or more coverage should look elsewhere.
