Lingerie, no matter where you buy it, is very expensive. In addition to being very expensive, half slips and even full slips don’t last long – the elastic stretches, or the lace that wasn’t quite attached properly begins to tear or catches in a shoe heel and rips. Darn! Another lingerie garment that has to be thrown away and replaced with something new.
