For the Sexy Bride - Fabulous Bridal Lingerie

Your guests may not be able to see what's underneath your dress, but the most important member of your wedding party surely will appreciate your efforts in picking out the proper lingerie for the occasion. You may be required to look prim and proper outside, but who says you can't let your naughty side emerge with your choice of sexy bridal lingerie? It's the perfect way to enhance your excitement and overall mood for your much-anticipated wedding night.

Today's new trend of bridal lingerie comes in different designs and styles. You will now find sexy and sensual bridal lingerie designed particularly to suit your taste and to fulfill your unique needs. Whether you're going for a soft and lacy babydoll or teddie, or an erotic see-through number, you can be sure that you'll find bridal lingerie pieces that will suit you and showcase your personal lingerie preferences.

Types of Bridal Lingerie

There are numerous versions of nearly every type of lingerie created especially to be worn by brides on their wedding day. Bridal lingerie is designed to have enough support to carry heavy dresses while accentuating the bride's curves.

If you're looking for great support, you can go for the bridal bustier. The bridal bustier has a solid construction that softly defines your figure while providing support for heavy dresses You can pair your bridal bustier with a lovely white thong, smooth and sexy stockings and even lacy garters for added appeal.

Although white is the traditional color for the bride, most modern brides today opt to go with black to add some contrast to their nice and pure image. Most wedding dresses today are constructed in such a way that black lingerie won't show from underneath the layers of white fabric.

If you're feeling a little more daring or you want bridal lingerie that emphasizes your gorgeous figure, then a bridal corset is the perfect choice of bridal lingerie. The corset is designed to accentuate your waist while lifting your breasts to showcase or create the illusion of a full bosom. If you plan on using a bridal corset, just make sure the corset is laced in a way that it gives you enough breathing room.

For informal wedding dresses or sleek gowns, you can go for casual bridal lingerie. Not much different from the typical bra and panty set, this type of bridal lingerie bares enough skin to let you show off your beautiful assets. Invisible bras, push up bras, nipple covers and self-adhesive disposable bras are all created to help provide minimal covering to your breasts, giving them room for maximum exposure.

Tips for Choosing the Perfect Bridal Lingerie:

When picking out your bridal lingerie, make sure your bridal lingerie works well with your wedding gown. Some wedding gowns may require specific styles of bridal lingerie to provide maximum support or maximum exposure.

Although functionality and style are extremely important, another very important factor to consider when buying bridal lingerie is comfort. Keep in mind that during the wedding ceremony and reception, you're going to be on your feet and moving around most of the time. The right bridal lingerie shouldn't be too constricting and should make you feel gorgeous not awkward and uncomfortable.

Whether you purchase the bridal lingerie or receive it as a gift from your bridal shower, remember to pick pieces that are structured well to provide excellent support to your dress, but beautiful and soft enough to make you feel absolutely desirable.

Lingerie Care 101

Investing on beautiful, sexy lingerie is a must for women and taking good care of them would be like getting more value for your hard-earned money.

When do you start? Right after you bought your new lingerie. Don't rip the tags off! Not only would you potentially run the risk of ripping your lingerie, you could also lose useful information about its care.

Don't just throw your undergarments straight to the washing machine. Hand washing is still the cheapest and best way to clean your lingerie, if and only if it doesn't have a "Dry clean only" label. Use gentle detergent and cold water. You may also want to try cleaners in the market specifically targeted for lingerie care. Leave your lingerie out to dry but not directly under the sun. Most undergarments are made of delicate materials that dry out quickly.

Finally, if your lingerie doesn't come with tags, here's a quick reference on common materials and their specific care instructions:

Acetate: Dry cleaning is best recommended.

Acrylic: Can either be hand washed or dry-cleaned.

Cotton: You can either hand wash it, machine-wash and then put it in the dryer, or dry-clean it.

Nylon: Can be machine-washed but be sure to set the dryer at low temperature.

Rayon: Varies between dry cleaning and hand washing it.

Silk: Requires gentle care. Although most labels would strongly suggest to have it dry-cleaned, it's no longer an absolute necessary. You can hand wash it using gentle soap and let it dry naturally.

Your Body And Your Lingerie

What is it with women and lingerie? There is definitely more to what meets the eye. Wearing sexy lingerie has a way of making a woman feel sensual and enticing.

Women come in different shapes and sizes and the good news is that there are various designs and styles that would cater to her body type and her personality. The popularity of online shopping has opened doors of opportunity for women to privately explore the thousands of stores that flourish in cyberspace.

Picking sexy lingerie can be tedious to the first timer but with expert advice she can turn her first shopping experience into a stress-free, memorable one. Sexy lingerie is one thing. Comfort is another. But rest assured, they could go together.

With color, it should match the color of your skin tone and hair color. Blondes would stand out in pastels. The rich hues of sapphire blue and emerald green would make a brunette feel like a queen. Redheads would look more seductively fierce in earth tones, blues and greens. Combine these colors with fabrics of silk, satin, lace, velvet, sheer materials or even leather.

Most importantly, your body type is crucial when considering lingerie purchase. Of course nobody wants to be caught, for example, an ill-fitting bra that makes your breasts look droopy. We all want to accentuate our assets and downplay the negative. Use minimizer bras if you have large breasts, push-up bras when you have small breasts. Check out online lingerie stores for more suggestions.

Product Review - Goddess Smooth Simplicity Bra

The Goddess Smooth Simplicity Bra is one of the best-selling plus size bras of the Goddess brand. This underwired bra that goes up to an H cup has seamless molded cups and padded shoulder straps. Its low leotard back has 2 rows of hook and eye closure for some sizes, and 3 rows of hook and eye closure for larger band sizes. The Goddess Smooth Simplicity Bra is a full coverage bra, yet still offers a touch of femininity with its low center front with diamond keyhole design.

The Upside: For women with larger cup sizes, they will love the support it gives their heavy breasts. The cushioned straps help eliminate painful grooves forming over their shoulders while distributing the weight of your breasts - you get support from the straps to the band. The combination of underwires and molded cups in this Goddess bra offers separation and shaping. If you're looking for a plus size bra that gives ample coverage to your girls, this product with full coverage cups is the one for you.

This Goddess bra is also perfect for tight shirts and knitted sweaters because of its seamless cups that won't show under clothing. Curvy ladies have found this bra to give a bit of minimizing effect, giving them a smoother look under their blouses.

The Downside: If you're not into minimizing, this Goddess bra is not for you. While it does have underwires, it's not made to uplift your breasts. Moreover, some may find the cup sizes smaller than usual, so you have to check on their sizing. And since the cups also offer full coverage, it may not be suitable to wear with shirts or blouses with deep necklines. Plus its limited color selection - black, white and nude - may disappoint women who are looking for more colorful bras in plus sizes.

The Verdict: The name of the Goddess Smooth Simplicity Bra sums it all up - smooth and simple in looks, but it definitely is a supportive plus size bra. If you want an everyday full coverage bra that offers seamless comfort especially when wearing tight shirts or knitted tops, this is the one you should definitely have in your wardrobe. Price-wise, at less than $40, the Goddess Smooth Simplicity Bra is a wise investment for full-figured women.

Buying sexy lingerie online should be a breeze, you will normally find an online shop local to your national location, however it pays to checkout a few things first before parting with your money. Make sure you read the stores terms and conditions of sale, make sure you know how much postage charges there are on your lingerie items. No matter how good a sexy item may look make sure you check a few important pointers



  • Always, always read the lingerie terms of sale or terms and conditions section

  • Read the stores return policy.

  • Always check for a contact phone number and a proper address, this generally would indicate you are dealing with a genuine bricks and mortar retail outlet or warehouse facility and not just a dropshipper taking a profit and passing details to a distributor.

  • The ultimate point to remember when buying any erotic sexy lingerie is to make sure you have a locked padlock sign in your browser before submitting any personal details or credit card information. No Locked Padlock = Do Not Buy!


Delivery can take from 24 hours to a few weeks depending where you purchase from. My advice would be that if you need the item for a special occasion within a timescale, telephone the lingerie store referencing their contact number from their website and ask advice on your sexy lingerie purchase stock availability and delivery schedule. You will be surprised how many lingerie webstores have no telephone assistance even though telephone numbers may be displayed on a website.
