There are so many options that it is easy for women to feel overwhelmed when shopping for their lingerie. The experience of shopping for lingerie can be overwhelming, especially if it’s your first time.
Don’t worry! You can make your shopping experience easier by understanding what you want. These are our top tips to help you get started with lingerie shopping.
- Learn your options
Before you shop for lingerie online, you should be familiar with the various types available. Here are the top-selling pieces:
Bodysuit – A one-piece set that includes a bra, underwear, and a tank top. This item also called a teddy or a teddy is ideal for special occasions and for layering under clothes.
Bralette Bras that don’t have an underwire and are often made from lace. These look best on women with smaller busts.
Corset: This is one of the oldest foundation clothes. It clings to your body and emphasizes the shape, creating an hourglass silhouette.
- Comfort and personal style
Although there are plenty of pieces that look great on supermodels you should still choose lingerie that is comfortable and in your style. Even if you’re buying lingerie to impress your man, you have to feel comfortable in it. Only when you feel comfortable in your lingerie can you show it off.
You can start with basic pieces, such as a few sets or lacy pieces in neutral shades. This will make it easy to wear lingerie no matter what color you choose. You can also experiment with a garter or red silk gown if you already own the basics.
- Your body type
Lingerie is not a one-size-fits-all. You need to choose lingerie that fits your body. For those who are smaller, there are plenty of options. A padded underwire bra (or a half-cup bra) with lace will give you a fuller figure. Ruffles make a great choice for petite women.
You might also want to emphasize your curves if you are blessed with beautiful curves. A full cup bra will support your bust. Or a sheer, low-cut chemise will show off your cleavage.
A pretty lacy bralette will give you a feminine, flirty look for someone with an athletic body. Because it helps to make a smaller body look curvier, a wire free bras will be a great choice. While these are best for women with smaller busts, you can still wear a bralette even if you are larger.
- The occasion
As there are various outfits for different occasions there is also a variety of lingerie. A cute bodysuit can be worn to unwind on lazy nights. A nice bra set and underwear set can be purchased in neutral colors to match your everyday outfits.
It’s best to choose something wild and unusual if you’re planning a special occasion such as Valentine’s Day, or a weekend away with your partner. While the traditional black look great on most women, it is too safe. Try out new fabrics and colors such as violet, gold, or even purple.
- Season
That’s right; a change is required in lingerie to accommodate the season. Winter is a great time for heavier pieces like those with embellishments and layers such as bodysuits or teddies. When paired with your warm winter wardrobe, bodysuits work great. So are stockings. They look much classier than normal tights and are sure to be loved.
Summer calls out for lightweight, breathable clothing. This rule also applies to lingerie. You have many options for beating the heat: you can use mesh, cotton, or lightweight jersey fabric, as well as lace. You should also make sure that you wear lingerie underneath, as summer is the perfect time to show off your figure in tank tops and strappy dresses. Bold colors such as neon are a great choice for summer.
The most important thing when shopping for lingerie is to have fun. It’s important to try different styles and find the one that you feel most comfortable with. It doesn’t matter what body shape you have, there is lingerie for you. Be confident, show your style and have fun. Enjoy your shopping experience!
