A erotic French maid costume

French maid ensembles are an occasional subject of sexual fetishism. They are a form of ladies' fantasy wear that depending on design details can be classified as lingerie. They enjoy a wide popularity and are available from many sources. Commonly included in the costume is a push-up bra to enhance the female bust to fit the stereotype which has come to follow with the typical French maid.

The name derives from their being worn by stereotypical characters in risqué burlesque dramas of the bedroom farce variety. The ensemble is a stylized version of the typical maid's black and white afternoon uniform of the nineteenth century.

A wide variety of costumes are manufactured and marketed under the "French maid" description today. These range from comparatively modest dresses extending well down the thigh or above the knees to transparent chiffon nightgowns or outright lingerie ensembles that cover almost nothing.

The classic French maid costume, however, is a very short and clingy dress (ideally silk satin, or closely resembling it) trimmed with shirred white lace. Typically, they include a tiny white apron attached to the dress; sometimes, the apron is even shaped like a heart, with white lace fringes on the hems and revealing neckline. The skirt area of the dress is usually pleated. If knickers are worn with it, they are usually white and ruffled, and the dress is sometimes short enough to display them, especially when the woman bends over.

Common accessories include a frill worn in the hair, or a tiara, a feather duster, and sometimes white lace cuffs and collar. If the dress has sleeves, they are usually short and puffed shoulder puffs. A corset or a layered white petticoat may be worn under the dress. The ensemble is almost always completed with black fishnet stockings and black high heels.

The costumes are sometimes worn to costume parties and sometimes in BDSM sexual roleplay (whether on brief occasions or as a routine form of servitude to the woman's lover).

The typical French maid costume includes:

  • A black dress with white trim, with a full skirt at or above knee length
  • White half-apron, usually with ruffle or lace
  • A ruffled or lace headpiece
  • Long stockings or tights. These can be white or black and vary from design to design
  • High heels
  • Feather duster
  • White or black lace garter

Optional accessories depend on design and context:

  • Choker necklace
  • Pearls
  • Other cleaning equipment

The outfits are frequently worn to fancy dress or costume parties, and also used in drama/theater.
