Satin Lingerie - Tips On How To Look Your Best In This Fabric And What To Be Aware Of

There are so many stores these days selling satin lingerie. This is the post for women that do not know what all the fuss is about.

Good things about satin

The thing for sure is that satin looks great. It really does. Women look amazing wearing satin chemises or camisoles, be it white, black, red or some other colour.

It has an amazing glow and feel. It is definitely one of the sexiest fabrics for lingerie.

In my opinion, satin looks best in white because it gives that innocent (but at the same time sexy) look. Black colour gives more luxurious and mature feel.

Be aware of red though, although it looks really hot and it is noticeable straight away, if not used with caution and thought it may give a tacky or 'in your face' look. Also, a note for mature women wearing red satin lingerie: carefully choose the shade of red. The wrong colour can really age you and make you look cheap. Please be aware of that!

Bad things about satin

Sometimes the lace sewed together with satin can look a bit fake, or, may I say, tacky. If you are not sure what I am on about, I mean e.g. the ends of some camisoles or chemises that are finished in different semi sheer material which is lace.

In order for the lace to look really well on satin, colours should be really matching and the needlework should be done perfectly. It does not happen often though, unfortunately. It is due to the mass production that cannot pay attention to really small details which, in my opinion, are crucial for lingerie. Small details finished in a perfect way can really make lingerie look extra luxurious and really irresistible.

Satin is really, and I will stress that again, really hard to taylor. That is why we get many camisoles or chemises made of satin, and not other types of lingerie. Satin looks best when it is more loose, as it lets the fabric to fall in a graceful and luxurious way.

Also it does not stretch, so you have to really find a size which is not smaller than your actual measurements. If you are really not sure which size will suit you, buy one size up rather than down.

Finally...
