BOOHOO has launched a raunchy range of undies – but many shoppers have been left baffled by the brand’s “waspies”.
The retailer’s is full of sexy smalls just in time for Valentine’s Day and all of the intimates are cheap and cheerful – with prices starting at just £3.
But the purse-friendly undies are causing some confusion online, as the brand’s lacy black knicker-and-bra set with a matching “waspie” has left many mystified.
British blogger Zoe London sparked a surge of online reactions after she tweeted a photo of the lingerie set questioning what the waspie actually for - and many were equally baffled.
and comes with a matching black lace bra and knickers - with the cost for the whole set totalling £27.
Zoe captioned her Twitter post: “Um, sure? What’s the middle bit for?”
And some said they wouldn't even know how to “get into” the lingerie - which has a bra-like clasp at the back.
One joked: “I'd be so knackered from wrestling this on, nobody would be touching me afterwards.
“I'd need an early night (with a hot water bottle and slipper socks).”
Someone else commented: “How do you even get into this?”
Meanwhile, others provided tongue-in-cheek suggestions about what the waspie’s purpose was.
One user joked: “Keep the belly button pokers away?”
Generally, waspies are designed to cinch in the waist and be attached to suspenders that hold up stockings - the Boohoo version doesn't include clips to attach anything to, but does help give the illusion of an hour-glass figure.
The lace set is also available in bright red.
