The best lingerie brands aren’t always necessarily the ones with the sexiest or most daring designs. Rather, they’re the ones that make you feel your most confident.
Contrary to outdated belief; women dress for themselves – and that includes their underwear – so if it’s a pair of Bridget Jones style knickers or a comfortable thong that you feel yourself in, you’ll be wanting a roster of the best brands to browse when it comes to buying them.
Amusingly, your underwear is likely one of the smallest items in your wardrobe and yet it’s the thing that packs the biggest punch. However, the lingerie market is pretty saturated and deciding which bralette/push-up bra/cotton underwear to add to checkout is tricky enough without having to worry about where to get it from. Lucky we’ve taken one for the team by practically doing it for you, then.
