Design and materials
The bodystocking is crafted from a blend of 95% nylon and 5% spandex, which gives it stretch and flexibility. The defining feature is the all-over rhinestone embellishment—each stone is glass—that catches light and creates a sparkling effect across the garment. It comes in black and is designed as a long-sleeved piece with an open crotch design.
The one-size-fits-all approach means it's intended to accommodate UK sizes 6 to 12. Sizing across a range of cup and hip measurements can be unpredictable with single-size garments, so if you're at either end of that spectrum, checking measurements carefully before buying is advisable.
What it's like to use
The nylon-spandex composition provides stretch, so the bodystocking should conform to your shape rather than feel restrictive. The rhinestones are a permanent feature of the garment, so you'll get the full sparkle effect every time you wear it. The open crotch design means the piece functions as a full-body garment without requiring removal for certain activities.
This is an outfit in itself or can be layered depending on your preference and the occasion. Because there's no fastening or closure mentioned, it's a pull-on style piece.
Cleaning and care
This bodystocking requires hand washing only—machine washing is not recommended. It should not be ironed, tumble dried, or bleached. These restrictions are important to preserve both the rhinestone embellishment and the integrity of the nylon-spandex fabric. Hand washing in cool water and air drying will extend the life of the garment and keep the glass stones looking their best.
Buy it if
You're looking for a statement piece for a special occasion, party, or intimate setting. The rhinestone detail makes this distinctly eye-catching, so it's suited to situations where you want a glamorous, eye-catching look. If you're within the size 6–12 range and enjoy hand-washing delicate garments, this is a functional choice. It also works well if you prefer a long-sleeved option rather than sleeveless designs.
Skip it if
You need a low-maintenance garment that can go in the washing machine or tumble dryer. If you're outside the size 6–12 range, a one-size piece may not fit comfortably. You might also skip this if you prefer understated designs without embellishment, or if you prefer not to hand-wash delicate items regularly.
The bottom line
This Lace by LJ bodystocking is a bold, sparkly option for anyone wanting a glamorous statement piece. The stretchy nylon-spandex blend and open crotch design provide practicality alongside the decorative rhinestone detail. Just be prepared for hand-wash-only care and check that you fall comfortably within the one-size range before purchasing.
