FAQs

Looking for the perfect lingerie for Valentine's Day? We've answered three common questions about shopping for lingerie.

What are the different types of lingerie? Lingerie comes in many different styles and silhouettes. Some of the most common types of intimates are bra and panty sets, bodysuits, teddys, chemises, and slips. Accessories like garter belts and suspenders are also considered part of the lingerie category.
What lingerie works best for my body type? We think that all body types can look beautiful in all styles of lingerie. Ultimately, it's what you feel the most comfortable and confident in! But if you're not sure what lingerie will work best for you, start with what part of your body you'd like to accentuate the most.
Can I wear Valentine's Day lingerie under my clothing? It depends on what you're planning to wear! Body-hugging dresses and tops will most likely require seamless underwear or shapewear whereas loose-fitting clothing is more conducive to lacy and embellished lingerie. That said, some lingerie can be worn on its own outside of the boudoir, like wearing a silk cami or bralette with a modern suit or pairing a bodysuit with high-waisted pants.
