At Strip we take pride in bringing our clients only the best women’s lingerie, with the most luxurious fabrics and top designers such as Stella McCartney and Heidi Klum. We all know how much clothing changes with the seasons but do you know what the trends are in lingerie? Read on to find out what to stock your underwear drawer with this winter.
Innerwear-As-Outerwear
Sometimes, with tricky outfits, you simply have to accept that part of your bra will show. It then becomes a matter of accessorizing, matching your bra (or having your bra contrast) with what you’re wearing. That naturally has given rise to bras that are meant to be seen. Layering innerwear with outerwear is such a great way to make an outfit your own. The idea of seeing a hint of lace or strap peek out of a low-cut neckline can add personality and individuality to any outfit. Our Cosabella Never Say Never Sweetie Padded Bra is a perfect garment to add something extra to your outfit.
Athleisure/Sporty
The athletic and streetwear influence has become very strong in lingerie/loungewear, meaning we’re seeing certain fabrics from that realm seep into intimates. If you’re feeling like comfort wins over looks on a lazy Sunday then try our Bjorn Borg Iconic Classic Sports Bra – underwear that is designed to make you look and feel active and attractive.
A Lil’ Something Extra…
Lingerie trends go beyond bras and panties. Nowadays, the scope of underwear also includes little extras, like the fan-favourite bodysuit and the corset. They are not only sophisticated and alluring, but they are functional as well. You can layer them under your #OOTD, or incorporate them into your ensemble by wearing them with culottes or a high-waisted skirt. Try these ideas with one of our favourite Stella McCartney pieces; Meg Alluring lace bodysuit.
All About Fit (& Less About Padding)
We’re seeing more and more women trade in their padded push-up and moulded bras for more natural looking, tailored lace lingerie. Today, shoppers are focusing more on finding (and investing in) a great fit. This means we’re seeing a rise in unlined or seamed lingerie; the embroidered cups on this Eberjey Delirious Triangle Bralet are made of the softest lace and are available in an array of soft, vintage shades.
Bandeau-Style
The ’90s revival doesn’t simply end at the outer layer of your wardrobe. We’re seeing resurgence in the bandeau-style bra — and not as a layering piece, but rather for the straight, horizontal neckline. We’ve got you covered with our Cosabella Trenta Bandeau; the bandeau is shaped specifically so they lay flat on the body for a beautiful seamless effect. It features a pull-over style with silicone strips so you don’t have to worry about slippage.
Bottoms Up
As far as underwear goes; it’s less and less about thongs and g-strings, and more about the “vintage-inspired, sophisticated look of the high cut brief. This means high-rise waist, full back, and other panty features that focus on comfort and coverage. (Think a stylish Bridget Jones). This gorgeous, luxurious Stella McCartney take on an everyday seamless range featuring subtle jacquard leopard print and signature gold hardware sits alongside pretty floral corded lace detailing.
Happy shopping!
