Valentine’s Day: lingerie buying guide for men

Buying lingerie for someone else is not an easy thing to do. Boys, you have our sympathy – and our everlasting gratitude if you get it right! Not only do you have contend with issues of size, but there’s also style to consider. How many of us are truly comfortable buying an item of clothing for someone else? Style is a very personal thing, and when it comes to lingerie it can be even more difficult to get right. So, here is our attempt to help all you lingerie-hunting men out there make the right purchase this Valentine’s Day with our lingerie buying guide.

Now, we’re not trying to discourage you – we love to receive sexy lingerie – but we think it is important to understand why you’re buying it if you want to get it right. Is it because lingerie is a traditional Valentine’s gift? Is it because you would love to see your partner in racy lingerie? Or maybe it’s because she loves lingerie and you want to treat her to something she might not buy for herself?

If the answer is that she loves lingerie, then great, you’re onto a winner. However, if it’s because you love her in lingerie, then your search may already be off on the wrong foot because you’re thinking of your tastes and not hers. We’re not saying don’t buy sexy lingerie. We’re saying think about her personal style and what she likes and buy her something you think will make her feel sexy. That way you’ll buy her something she’ll love and wear again and again, not something that gets worn once and is then consigned to the back of the cupboard.

Go through her lingerie drawer. Yes, really. You have our permission. Most girls will have bras that they wear every day, and then one or two that they reserve for special occasions or outfits. Look at the lingerie she buys for herself and make a note of colours, brands and style. Does she like lace? Does she like frills or does she prefer to keep it simple? Prints or plains? Conservative or a little naughty? Does she like knickers or thongs?

It’s amazing how many men fall at this hurdle. If we had a pound for the number of times we’ve heard a flustered man in a lingerie department say to a shop assistant, ‘she’s about your size’, well, let’s just say we wouldn’t have such long wish lists!

Lingerie sizing is different to clothing size. Look in a few of her bras and you’ll find a size that looks something like 30C or 34E. There will always be a number – the back size – followed by a letter – the cup size. Sometimes there will be two letters, for example DD or FF. You need both the back size and the cup size. Don’t be surprised if the sizes differ in some of her bras, as the fit can change slightly between brands and styles. You’re better off going with the size you see most frequently, or, if you decide to buy her something from her favourite brand, the size in that brand’s bras.

Finally, make sure you check the size of the knickers or thongs she wears. These will be either standard dresses sizes (8, 10, 12, etc) or small, medium, large, etc. Getting the bra size wrong is forgivable, but the knicker size? A miscalculation either way is not going to be well received.

Now you know her size, her style preferences, and the brands she likes you need to decide how much you are going to spend. Your budget will depend on your personal circumstances and you don’t have to spend a fortune, but our advice is always buy the best you can afford, whether that’s £30, £60 or £100. Remember, you’re buying her something that is, basically, a wardrobe essential, so to make it special you need to push the boat out a little bit.  Plus, cheap lingerie can look like cheap lingerie, and that probably won’t elicit the reaction you’re hoping for.

And finally, always ask for a gift receipt. That way anything that’s not quite right can be quietly exchanged and everyone is happy.

Sheer hosts a Charity Fashion Show to Empower Girls with Education

On November 16, 2013, Hong Kong’s premier designer sexy lingerie boutique, Sheer, held their second annual “One Girl Every Girl” charity fashion show at Armani/Prive.

The night was filled with over 300 guests who came to support Education for Girls with ticket sales and donations that benefitted Hagar International education programs. Asia’s Next Top Model, Helena Chan, was the star of the fashion show.

Brands featured in the fashion show include Chantelle, Stella McCartney, Eberjey, Lascivious, Mimi Holliday, Zinke, Cadolle, Fleur of England, Lejaby, and Wolford. Sponsors’ support was crucial to the success of the event, including Giorgio Armani Beauty, L’Oreal Professionnel, Shu Uemura, Carat*, Ellermann Floral Boutique & Event Atelier and Armani/Prive.

Hagar International is a non-profit organization committed to recovery and economic improvement of women and children who fall victim to severe human rights abuses such as sexual violence, illegal trafficking, poverty and child marriage. Hagar operates 5 school centers in Afghanistan, Cambodia and Vietnam teaching over 600 girls at a time the proper skills to become self sufficient.

Chantelle comes up Chantelle lingerie and swimwear 2014

Chantelle comes up with its own version of luxury and chic for summer presenting the totally flabbergasting and cool Chantelle lingerie and swimwear 2014 collection, which includes all the sassy and alluring pieces and design patterns possible, be that put via shapes, colors, or equal proportions of both. That’s where you can find comfy and sassy lingerie and swimwear designs for any body shape and preference.


Talking about the Chantelle lingerie 2014 collection, we should first of all note about the immediately noticeable accent on the diversity of colors, encompassing purple, blue, black, white, pearl green, coral, and many other alternatives. Lace is one of the primary and most frequently met textures used for the creation of the pieces. As for the pieces, they are quite numerous as well, presented mainly with classic two-pieces, yet designed with the most various shapes of that type ever. Starting with the balconette bras, we may continue this list with the triangle options, and finish it up with the strapless options. The nice ways of matching these shades with lace patterns and transparency plays are also noteworthy. The same can be said about the monochrome and monotexture options, also having some touches of minimalism.

Coming to the Chantelle sexy swimwear 2014 collection, we should again note the color diversity first, which does presuppose the variety of design patterns, and shapes in general. Unlike the lingerie section, here we may also notice some one-pieces, which also stand for the ultimate glam and chic. Particularly, we can talk about the chic dark khaki one-piece, coming with an extremely body-flattering shape and a plunge V-curve for the complete allure. Next, we should also talk about the triangle top and bottom coming with colorful patterns and side knots. The classic blue duo and the coral bandeau plus triangle bottom are also noteworthy. The same can be said about the stripy designs, the monochrome pure white alternatives and the navy blue chic variants.
So yeah, the Chantelle lingerie and swimwear 2014 collection is, indeed, a great option for consideration, so that you may have another array of alternatives to spice up your summer looks with. What you actually need to do is considering all the options and finding the most suitable ones. There will be many of them, we are sure!

Dear Kate Debut Collection

Dear Kate, the young fashion-meets-function lingerie line, is set to launch online this month followed by availability in specialty boutiques across the U.S. Pre-orders for the new collection start November 15, 2012. The debut collection—an assortment ranging from elegant high-rises and cream bodysuits to pastel bikinis and basic hipsters—pays homage to what every woman loves about her favorite intimates. While the designs alone catch the eye, it’s what’s underneath that has Dear Kate poised to make its mark with not only fashionistas but also new and expecting mothers. “Lingerie may not always be seen by others but it sets the mood for your day,” says Julie Sygiel, founder and CEO. “The risk of an oops moment shouldn’t mean we have to give up what we feel good in.”

Below the beauty of every Dear Kate sexy panties is a light-as-a-feather lining that protects women against stains and spills with the utmost discretion. Delicate to the touch and known for their easy wear-and-wash quality, the panties have already garnered a cult following through an earlier line in 2011. Originally named Sexy Period, the patent-pending high-tech underwear was geared towards women who wanted extra backup during their period without having to compromise on style. But when Sexy Period saw preteens, new moms experiencing incontinence, and even athletes embrace their panties, they knew a rebranding was in order. Known briefly as Underbrella before a trademark issue delayed a re-launch this summer, the team behind Dear Kate is pleased with the early praise they’ve already received.

“Kate is that best friend in a crisis, the one who rushes to your side with chocolate,” says Sygiel, on the line’s new name. “The women who wear our panties appreciate not only the innovation behind it, but also the community we’ve become and Dear Kate embraces that fully.”

Cara Delevingne is the New Face of La Perla Lingerie

You've seen the photos from Cara Delevingne's first La Perla campaign and now you can go behind the scenes on the shoot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott. Cara joins supermodels Liu Wen and Malgosia Bela in the ads, which showcase the lingerie brand's Spring Summer 2014 collection under the creative direction of Fabien Baron. The backstage footage includes interviews with La Perla's three model ambassadors, including Cara in her first sexy lingerie campaign. She uses the film as an opportunity to discuss her passion for acting, revealing, "I've loved acting since I was four years old and I first did a play, I knew I wanted to be a performer." The 21-year-old also explained her approach to life, particularly in regards to the way she communicates with other people: I think the thing with words is that they can mean so much, but also mean nothing at all. I try to always mean what I say.

Last month Cara gave us a sneak peek at her new La Perla campaign via her Instagram account, and shortly after all the pics landed. The Londoner is seen posing in four different lingerie looks from the collection, including an embroidered camisole, a lace bustier and a matching sheer bra and knickers set. Her hair is styled loose and wavy and her smoky eye makeup ensures she smolders. In one of the images, where the supermodel wears a white one-piece, it looks as if she's just stepped in from a rainy downpour as her hair is soaking wet and scraped back in a ponytail. Since her role with La Perla was confirmed in October, Cara has been getting plenty of underwear action. She walked in the Victoria's Secret catwalk show for a second year in a row and goofed around backstage on an i-D magazine shoot by trying on Miranda Kerr's barely there Chanel bikini.

Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show Features 3D Printed Lingerie

3D printing took center stage at the Victoria’s Secret fashion showlast month. Victoria’s Secret turned to architect Bradley Rothenberg to design the wings for supermodel Lindsay Ellingson to wear on the catwalk.

In an interview with Shapeways, Rothenberg explained his inspiration:

My first thought was to come up with a system for generating fractal snowflakes. We used processing as a tool to sketch different organizations of snowflakes & how different fractal organizations allow a shift from small textile-like snowflakes to larger structural snowflakes. We needed to come up with our own underlying system for making 3D snowflakes.

Rothenberg thinks 3D printing can be a game-changer in fashion in general.

“I think that 3D printing has a big possibility to change the industry as a whole,” he said. “Specifically what we want to do is make wearable 3D-printed stuff available to fashion designers,” Rothenberg told TechCrunch.

Here is supermodel Lindsay Ellingson wearing the 3D Printed creation.

Vintage inspired lingerie is always a treat

Vintage inspired lingerie is always a treat. It brings us back to a time of glamour and prestige. With the Hollywood idols in our heads we pretend to be the starlets of the 40s and 50s as we don intimates that hug our curves and instill in us a unique passion. That is why when we received images of What Katie Did‘s SS13 collection we couldn’t help but fawn over the high waisted briefs and bullet bras.Started in 1999 by Katie Thomas, What Katie Did has grown to become one of the world’s largest providers of faux vintage lingerie. Most of the brand’s designs are based on existing vintage patterns adapted to suit the modern woman.

To wear pieces from What Katie Did is to announce full confidence in your femininity. Each collection created is for the saucy siren in us all begging to come out and play.

For SS13, the brand unveils their existing Marlene range in a new shade of peach & red. Marlene was inspired by Marlene Dietrich, the ultimate femme fatale, and features sheer peach organza teamed with red satin. The Art Deco motifs on its girdle and suspender belt complement What Katie Did’s trademark bullet bra and high waisted knickers splendidly. This season, the brand also introduces a new choice of tanga knickers alongside with the classic high waisted briefs.

In addition to the Marlene range, What Katie Did has released a range entitled ‘Coco’ to showcase the brands’s new patterns and fabrics. The high waisted knickers (a new shape to WKD) come in chocolate stretch satin with peach contrast stitching while the bra features cathedral boning and spiral stitching. The set also comprises a 4-strap suspender belt in chocolate with peach stitching. To complement the Coco range, the brand has also released their classic Hollywood camiknickers and satin robe in cream with chocolate piping. Known not only for their exquisite sexy lingerie, What Katie Did has also updated their swimwear range, featuring high waisted briefs with adorable cut-out bow details on the hips.

Naki NYC Debuts with Iconic Swimwear Line

Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn are pop culture icons whose likenesses are amongst the most popular the world-over . . . Naki has taken these legends to the beach with a brand new enchanting sexy swimwear line. With oversized prints of these recognizable faces Naki’s new bathing suit line is striking yet feminine. “I think swimwear should be fun, it’s one of the rare places in everyday fashion where women can be a little kitschy, a little out there, and totally sexy,” says Kerri Quigley the line’s designer.

Made in New York City, using eco-friendly printing methods Naki’s debut collection features a maillot, a strapless one piece with cut-outs, a bandeau top with high waisted briefs, and a bikini. All pieces are sold as separates and can be mixed and matched.

“Fit is very important to us, the front of all Naki swimwear is double lined for support and shape,” Quigley states, adding “The back of the suits are equally as decorative as the front; with quotes from each icon.”

For instance the Marilyn Monroe bikini bottoms read “I am good but not an angel” while Audrey Hepburn’s quote is “I believe happy girls are the prettiest girls.”

Pin-Up Model, SINderella Rockafella, Poses in Raine & Bea Lingerie

Raine & Bea recently teamed up with international supermodel, SINderella Rockafella for a photoshoot for the brand. Photographer, Chrissy Sparks, has captured beautiful shots of the pin-up model wearing the “Trudi” feather skirt and bralette. The 23 year old model comes from Coughton, England, and the blonde beauty is versatile in her modelling abilities. Although SINderella Rockafella specializes in Pin-Up and alternative modelling, she also has experience in Fashion and Boudoir. Using her natural talent and experience, SINderella Rockafella has been pictured in magazines wearing the likes of Vivienne Westwood and Alexander McQueen. When the international Pin-up model posed in Raine & Bea for photographer Chrissy Sparks at Doll House Photography, it was a match made in lingerie heaven said the company. Founded in 2013 by Jenna Barnes, Raine & Bea has made a huge splash on the lingerie scene. In their first year, the vintage and burlesque lingerie designer has already been nominated for the 2013 UK Lingerie Awards for UK’s Favourite Lingerie Brand of the Year and UK’s Favourite British Designer of the Year, which is determined by public voting.

Raine & Bea’s new campaign features SINderella Rockafella in the “Trudi” feather skirt and bralette. The sexy lingerie designed by Raine & Bea, including those shown, are all handcrafted and hand sewn using only the highest quality silk-satins, polka-dot nettings, feathers, and Swarovski crystals.

Sumarie Classics Lingerie Collective

London-based couture swimwear label and online concept store Sumarie is a brand that truly embodies fashion forward design. Since being introduced to the company at Pure London this February I have done nothing but drool over the editorial-esque designs of the Classics Collection.

The label made its debut at the sexy lingerie collective in July of 2012. Having trained at the prestigious haute couture Parisian fashion institute Esmol, founder and designer Marie Su moved to London in 2006 and only three years later launched the Sumarie fashion house. When asked, Su finds inspiration for her designs in everyday objects such as nature, architecture, and vintage photographs.

Sumarie specializes in elegance and originality. Only the finest fabrics such as Lycra, power-nets, jacquard fabrics, and stretch georgette are used to create the collection. Each garment is given a perfectionist approach, which shows in the exquisite detailing. The brand offers a bespoke range of swimwear and beachwear that is suitable for women of all different body shapes and structures.

Kriss Soonik SS14

An email from designer Kriss Soonik is like a very lacy (digital) present. We’ve reported on her lovely brand in the past and have always been impressed by the artistry of her collections. So, when her email subject line read: “5th Anniversary SS14″ — we knew we were in for a treat. The present analogy is fitting as SS14 is Kriss Soonik’s 5th Anniversary collection. The new collection is split into two distinct categories: Loungerie and sexy lingerie.


Kriss also launched the “Rainbow of Bras” project — which brings back all of her brands signature colors used over the years. “This is an exclusive opportunity to a few stores just in time for next Valentine´s Day,” noted the designer. Kriss Soonik is showcasing her SS14 collection at the upcoming Lingerie Collective NYC Show August 4 – 6, 2013 at 320 Studios (320 West 37th St 14th Floor) — a ten minute walk from Jacob Javits center.

Tatu Couture SS14

Tatu Couture has created an even stronger look than before for SS14. Sexier, more direct with its own unique signature style of lingerie and body wear. The SS14 collection ‘La Belle Maitresse’ is a tribute to women’s beauty and sensuality, combining supremely sophisticated styling & details that cleverly incorporate ready to wear elements with lingerie for a contemporary erotic feel.

Combining elegant tailoring and couture finishes, Tatu Couture fuses shirt collars with sheer transparency, Chantilly lace and satin for an effortlessly chic look with a Parisian twist. Body art remains the stylistic DNA of the brand, however we see a peek of blush coloring transcending through this new collection and a move towards truly unique pieces that allow Tatu Couture to establish itself firmly as a fashion forward,sexy lingerie brand.

Simone Perele SS14 collection in NYC.

Last month, we had the opportunity — and pleasure — to see Simone Pérèle’s SS14 collection in person at their showroom here in NYC. Simone Pérèle’s Caroline Soulagnat walked us through the collection with hanger after hanger of gorgeous pieces. The brand’s SS14 collection is described as revealing “…a woman of intrigue and appeal. She is easy going yet multifaceted, romantic yet mysterious, deliberate yet spontaneous.”

As always, each collection is inspired by art, travel and culture. Quality fabrics, embroidery, laces and ribbons are selected with infinite care by the brand to enhance a woman’s natural curve. Along with some gorgeous designs, Simone Pérèle’s SS14 collection showcases the brand’s innovation with state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques like 3D knit technology in their Andora range and aloe vera infused lace in Caressence.

Simone Pérèle believes that every woman deserves to be exquisitely comfortable in her sexy lingerie. Divinely soft “Lotion Touch” microfiber (one of the finest knits ever created), hugs curves to perfection with a silky-smooth sheen surface. Folded, stitch-free microfiber edges draw pure lines and a seamless finish against the skin, so that no elastic or creases are felt. Adjustable straps complete the collection, offering three different positions (straight, racerback and halter) for the most discreet look under clothing. Inspiration is also a work of art in the making. Each season, Simone Pérèle artisans reinvent the collection by adding a new creative design element. This season, Inspiration makes its debut in alluring Midnight Blue and with a chic assortment of six straps that decorate the shoulders, including Simone Pérèle’s signature guipure accents, and an ultra-sensual lace back. Showcasing Simone Pérèle’s iconic style, each piece is signed with a silver-studded brand logo.

Insolence embodies the woman who is unafraid to be herself, and seizes her life with unabashed passion. Her sense of freedom is illustrated with dove-like embroidered wings using Saint Gallen embroidery. Supremely soft to the touch, each wing is worked in a dynamic juxtaposition of matte versus brilliance. Ethereal wings adorn bra cups in perfect symmetry, angled towards the straps to create a harmonious design that simply soars. Insolence honors the multifaceted aspects of what it is to be a woman, and her beautifully complex, sometimes contradictory nature. In White, Insolence expresses her purity of spirit; Plum calls forth her mysteriousness and depth, and Flame awakens her wild, provocative nature. Her exquisite nature and unbridled independence is captured in every detail: satin straps, pleated bows, the touch of satin framing the bust, and the hints of radiance emanating from the embroidered wings. Insolence illuminates the freedom of the spirit.

Tips for Choosing Sexy Lingerie

Choosing sexy lingerie isn't easy if you're the least bit self conscious. After all, when you're wearing a teddy or a babydoll, there's not much left to the imagination. If you're feeling wonderful, either because you're madly in love or you've been dieting and have reached your target weight, you can probably put on different types of sexy lingerie without feeling too self conscious. However for some women, the thought of wearing some sensual lingerie may prompt you to get those lights off as soon as possible, so it's important to feel comfortable with your own body and emphasise your positive features which will in turn make you feel appealing and desirable.

Women of today consider their lingerie as an important part of their wardrobe. Online shopping has made it very easy and opened up a new world for finding lingerie that is sexy, exotic and also comfortable to wear. Choosing the right lingerie for you may take a bit of practice. There are many different types of sexy lingerie to choose from and comfort is just as important as the way you look.

Popular types of lingerie are corsets, bustiers, babydolls, gowns, teddies and camisoles to name a few. The important thing to consider though is how much each type of lingerie will show off your particular figure. Some might draw attention to your breasts while others might show off your legs.

Here are some tips for choosing the right sexy lingerie for you: ¨ First, think about how you feel - are you shy or proud of your body? Are you embarrassed showing too much skin or are you comfortable hitting the beach in a tiny bikini? It is good to be daring but if modesty can't easily be forgotten you may find that a sexy lingerie set makes you feel more inhibited and not less. However, you may find that your lingerie is like a costume which makes you wilder than usual.

Focus on your best features. Sexy babydoll and teddies are perfect if you want to show a lot more leg and bust.

If you have small breasts choose lingerie that shows off your bottom or legs to distract from your breast size. Put on a pair of sexy stockings and a garter as they do a good job of lowering the eye to the legs. Bring the eyes to the areas of your body that you feel comfortable with. If you have large breasts, styles in plus size lingerie with under wired bras or halter tops can help lift and enhance cleavage.
