Penthouse Sweet Retreat nylon-spandex babydoll

Here’s my take on this model: the Penthouse Sweet Retreat babydoll strikes a balance between confident sensuality and genuine comfort. The nylon/spandex blend ensures an impeccable fit while remaining soft against the skin — that’s what I’ve observed over 10 years working in an intimate boutique; customers always come back to this point. The adjustable straps make all the difference, adapting to different body types without compromising the fit.

Material and care: durable nylon and spandex

The 95% nylon / 5% spandex blend guarantees stretch and lasting support. Nylon is renowned for its durability — unlike lower-quality synthetics, it does not deteriorate after a few washes. To preserve the delicate sheer panels and lace-up details, I recommend hand-washing in lukewarm water with a mild soap, then laying flat or hanging to dry (never use a tumble dryer). Spandex does not tolerate high temperatures well.

Fit and dimensions: from S/M/L to XL

The babydoll comes in two size options: S/M/L (A/B to C/D cups, bust measurement 89-110 cm) and XL (D/DD cups, bust measurement 98-110 cm). The length is designed to fall just above the thighs, creating a balanced silhouette. The adjustable straps let you fine-tune the overall length according to your body shape and preferences. Strategic sheer panels and decorative lace-up details at the bust complete the sensual effect without being overwhelming.

Sheer panels and details: thoughtfully designed

What interests me here is the coherence of the design — the lace-up details and sheer panels are not there by chance. They create a gradual reveal, focusing on anticipation rather than outright exposure. It’s a detail I appreciate as an advisor: it leaves room for the imagination. The plastic-free packaging and gold finish reinforce Penthouse’s premium positioning. If you’re looking for a piece for a sensual evening as a couple or on your own, this model offers balance and quality.

Variations and colors: black and white

Two colors to choose from: classic black (timeless and easy to pair) and white (more sensual, but requiring slightly more careful maintenance to prevent yellowing). Each variation is available in S/M/L or XL, allowing you to choose your actual size without compromise. Moving from one size to another doesn’t just change the length — the bust fit and strap width also evolve.

Who it’s for and who it’s not for

Who it’s for: Anyone looking for a sensual babydoll made with genuinely high-quality materials, not something disposable. You appreciate details (lace-up accents and carefully balanced sheerness), want something that lasts, and need it to adapt to your body shape. Perfect for an intimate night as a couple, on your own, or as a gift.

Who it’s not for: If you want an ultra-sheer or very minimal piece, this model focuses too much on the details. If you prefer cotton for everyday wear (rather than an occasional outfit), I recommend a piece from our comfortable lingerie collection instead — the nylon here is truly designed for intimacy, not for sleeping in every night.

Advice from a friend — Order the size that matches your actual bust measurement (not smaller); the adjustable straps will take care of the rest. And if you’re hesitating between black and white, black is easier to maintain.
