What Does a Lingerie Fabric Label Actually Tell You?
Start with the label, then the unanswered questions
When comparing lingerie, keep the fiber blend, size information and care instructions in separate columns. Copy the blend from the label or maker document for the exact garment, then note any unanswered questions. A fabric name by itself is not enough to choose a size or a washing method.
Use this guide as a shopping worksheet. It does not verify the material, fit, care requirements or stock of any particular Aitoyplay item. If an item lacks its own documentation, ask for that information before treating it as a recommendation.
What the FTC says a textile label can cover
FTC guidance explains that many covered textile products carry information about fiber content, origin and the responsible business. Its detailed guidance describes fiber names and percentages by weight, generally listed from the largest share to the smallest. Coverage and exceptions matter, so do not assume that every visible trim or component is included in the same percentage statement.
For your comparison notes, copy the stated blend exactly and record which part of the garment the statement describes. Keep the source beside the numbers. A label photograph and a seller sentence that disagree are a question to resolve, not two values to average.
Compare what is stated, and leave the rest unknown
A fiber percentage describes composition; it is not a personal fit assessment or a complete care instruction. Keep three separate columns in your notes: composition, construction details and garment-specific care. When a page uses a term such as mesh or stretch, ask what the seller means and whether an actual specification supports it.
For example, if one listing gives a blend and another only says soft fabric, the second has an information gap. That gap is a reason to request a label image. It is not evidence that the second garment is worse, better or identical.
Before you choose: your comparison worksheet
Record the exact item identifier, the stated fiber blend, the source of the statement and any unresolved component questions. Add the size guide separately. Finally, locate the care instructions and the applicable return terms before making a buying decision.
If the information is unavailable, leave the field unknown. Do not infer percentages from color, a studio photograph, a price or another product with a similar name. This modest record gives you a concrete question to ask the seller and makes later comparisons more consistent.
