It’s just going to make sure your bra holds up all night! Designed with a gentle adhesive substance along the wings and cups, these bras glue seamlessly onto your curves and are the perfect option when you can’t go completely braless.<\/div><\/div><\/div>\nA retro style bra with one of the most delicate designs, the \u2018balconette\u2019 gives a lovely lift with a gently rounded appearance. With low cut cups and wide set straps, it almost resembles the architecture of a balcony, and hence the name! The balconette bra<\/span><\/a> is a great choice for square and boat necklines!<\/div><\/div><\/div>\nEveryone\u2019s got it, but not many know it. Yes, it\u2019s a woman\u2019s wardrobe staple – what\u2019s normally called a spaghetti slip! A camisole can work as an undergarment, an extra layer or an essential add-on to the outfit!

\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\nLearning the alphabet of lingerie can get quite confusing! Especially when it comes to cup sizes beyond D. While most American bra sizes go from D, DD to DDD, some of the European lingerie masters prefer D, E, F and so on. But we pick the best of both worlds, following a size chart that includes both DD<\/span><\/a> and E, going up to K!
\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\nNot every bra comes with smooth finish cups.

A classic style of the lingerie family, this bra encapsulates the entire breast, offering maximum support and eliminating spillage while giving a well rounded shape.<\/div><\/div><\/div>\nNo, we aren\u2019t talking about musical chords! This is more of a barely-there thong AKA a sexy panty<\/span><\/a> offering zero rear coverage. It\u2019s held up by strings that go around the waist and meet on either side of the hips. Now, you can finally say goodbye to panty lines!
\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\nIf you\u2019re looking for a panty<\/a> that is functional and stylish, this should be your pick! A cross between bikinis and briefs, hipsters<\/span><\/a> are low-rise panties that provide medium to full rear coverage. As the name suggests, they sit on the hip bone and have a reputation for being super comfortable.
\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\nSeamless cups hide bra lines in the front; but what about at the back? What you need is a bra with invisible wings! The sides are created with laser cut fabric and they sit absolutely flat against your skin – no stitches, no visible seams, no bra lines! Gotta love that smooth finish under fitted tees!
\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\nLingerie made with jacquard has patterns woven into the fabric itself. Using cotton, silk, rayon and other fabrics as a base, the machinery programmes the threads to move individually and create beautiful patterns that spell lush luxury.
\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\nNo, we aren\u2019t referring to the lock on your underwear drawer! This is a tear-drop shaped hole constructed on the garment for an added edge of style! The keyhole could feature either under the neckline or on the back.
