Sexy lingerie online shopping? You’re probably familiar with the slip dress and bustier tops, but this season, lingerie is taking center stage in the ready-to-wear world as opposed to its usual seat underneath it all. The title for this trend theme couldn’t be any clearer: Lingerie dressing is going way beyond the confines of the bedroom as traditional lingerie detailing such as hook and eye clasps, boning, garters, sheer paneling, tons of silks, lace, corsetry, and much more have worked their way into some of the most prominent spring collections. From Olivier Theyskens showing us that much less is much more to Dion Lee’s exciting take on all things boned and bound, the three trends ahead are our suggestion of where to start when it comes to tackling lingerie dressing this season.
Let’s talk a few spring 2020 trends in the fashion world. ’60s Wallpaper: We’ll spare you the groundbreaking florals this season and instead, look to ’60s and ’70s wallpaper for your print fix. Retro prints ruled the runways—bringing both major color and pattern to all the top collections. Serving up mod home decor realness, vintage wallpaper (and couch) prints were channeled in the form of suiting at Prada and Marc Jacobs. Christopher Kane opted for a more psychedelic wallpaper print in the form of spring dresses, while Etro and Alberta Ferretti delivered a more bohemian-print option.
The colour of the season? These days, there’s never really just one. There is a consensus, however, on look-at-me colour – and it’s on acid. Valentino led the neon explosion, with a series of looks in Stabilo green, fuchsia and yellow; Christopher Kane, a longtime proponent of neon (“I love neon – it’s so man-made and loud and obnoxious,” he once told Vogue) turned out bright yellow, orange and pink lace looks that adhered to his modern mantra of “more joy”; and even Rei Kawakubo turned to neon pink in preparation for her take on Orlando (she’s designing the costumes for Olga Neuwirth’s adaptation of Virginia Woolf’s novel, opening at the Vienna State Opera in December 2019). Go glow.
The tall guys must be pondering about which underwear should I wear? Taller guys over 6ft. will have to stick with boxer briefs no matter what. Wearing a shorter fabric would make you look really tall. Give yourself all the materials to work with and cover your spare legs. Shorter guys have to be careful when opting for underwear that is too lengthy as it may make you appear a lot shorter than your actual height. Briefs are your perfect fix as they don’t feature much material. So, you can flash a lot more of your flesh. Read more info at Sexy Costumes.
“And just like that, disco’s not dead,” said Harpers Bazaar. “The wide collar favoured by the Studio 54 set made a surprise comeback on the spring 2020 runways. “Modernised on coats, jackets, and button-downs at Lanvin, Ferragamo, JW Anderson, and beyond, the look is often shown with contrasting colours to make it really stand out. Because what’s the point of a super collar if you can’t really see it?” Can’t argue with that. Whether they’re long, narrow, bright or dark, expect to see a lot more of this triangular trend. “They aren’t going anywhere it seems. Everyone from Anna Sui to Giorgio Armani have hopped on the bandwagon and used them on the runways.” Between all these looks set to hit the shops, we’re confident 2020 is going to be a year with designs so groundbreaking that even Meryl Streep would have been satisfied.
G-string types of underwear have the least amount of coverage, i.e. none, only covering your vajay (barely). Like a thong, it forms the same T-shape, but with a much more itty-bitty string. Think loin cloth with straps. G-strings tend to be made with more delicate fabrics, including lace and satin.Wear g-strings with: If you’re going for a no-underwear underwear look, a g-string is what you want. Great for form-fitting / bodycon skirts and dresses; tights and leggings. Basically any time you want to avoid visible panty lines. Probably not the most comfortable in jeans and denim, but that’s all you!
It’s best if you can keep your period panties separately than your everyday wear. To make underwear shopping easier, we asked top fashion editors for their recommendations for the best underwear for women in 2019. Here are their favorites. “I love these undies. They’re so lightweight and comfortable, they basically become a second skin, preventing any embarrassing panty lines. The fabric is perforated, allowing it to breathe, and contains a quick-drying, moisture-wicking technology. The edges are laser-cut – which guarantees the underwear stays in place in all the right places. Trust me, once you try these, you’ll never look back.” – Sarah Ball, market editor, People Magazine Discover extra details on plussizelingeriedresses.com.
