The lace detailing is genuinely intricate, not that cheap stiff stuff, and it sits flat against the skin instead of scratching. The strappy open back is the real showpiece though — my partner actually paused mid-sentence when I walked in.

The open back with the strappy detail is what sold me, and it looks even better on than in the photos. Only thing is the straps take a minute to get adjusted right, but once they're set it stays put.
