I love that even after almost a decade of blogging about lingerie, I am still discovering new styles to covet. One shape that I’ve been seeing rather often lately is this type of bandeau bra with underwires that are separated from the overlaid fabric, and visible through it.

A name that has been very popular recently for a number of reasons – among which, their willingness to consistently increase their size range – is UK brand Edge O’ Beyond. Their flexible size range covers UK 6-18 and 30B-38G, the concept being that one size covers 3 to 4 sister sizes thanks to adjustable back straps.

The more unique or ultra-pretty pieces I add to my lingerie collection, the more I find myself trying to ‘sneak’ some of them into my outerwear. A strappy bra peeking out from under a top there, a slip worn as a summer dress there – there’s usually a way to slip a little lingerie in if you want to.

Marjolaine is a French luxury lingerie brand which is best known for its lavish use of appliqué, often featuring delicate floral lace stitched over a contrasting silk satin base. I love those pieces (how could I not?), but what I really adore are their slip designs that use super-sized embroidery appliqués.

Fréolic London is a premium brand that’s focused on making the experience of buying luxurious, semi-bespoke lingerie more accessible and affordable. They offer pre-designed garment shapes that can be ordered in a (very!) wide array of colour and fabric choices.

While it can still be challenging to find darker nude shades at your local boutique or chain store, a lot has changed over the past several years. As you’ll see here, there are more brands than ever before offering lingerie in a diverse array of skin tone shades.

Bows on lingerie seems to be a very polarising design feature. They’re everywhere, so it’s little wonder some people are bored of them, but it is worth knowing the reasons they’re so ubiquitous. And personally, I’m thrilled that bows are having a bit of an extra popular moment in lingerie right now!

What better way to kick off 2022’s content than with my annual lingerie trend predictions? I’m going to start by reviewing last year’s predictions to see if I got them right or not, and then we’ll move onto the trends that I think you’re going to be seeing all over your Instagram feeds and in your local lingerie stores moving forwards.

As we are entering the most festive part of the year, cosy and stylish do not have to be antonyms. From classic silhouettes to custom prints, here is a selection of fashionable loungewear pieces that will also bring you comfort during the cold winter months.

Last week I shared my top lingerie gift recommendations under £100, and now it’s time to turn my attention to the luxury suggestions. There’s both showstopping bra sets and decadent loungewear galore to choose from, and the more you scroll down, the more breathtaking things get!
