Sheer & Pure Lingerie

(This page refers exclusively to our bespoke products only) 

Giving lingerie shows that you care and that you’ve invested time, effort and attention in selecting a very personal gift.

 

That’s if you get it right!

 

For many men, the world of lingerie is a minefield, where over-helpful shop assistants can make shopping for lingerie an embarrassing experience. And even the more confident shopper can find his choices go badly wrong.

 

The good news is that there is so much quality, choice and advice available from the Internet  that you can now save the red cheeks and order from the comfort of your home. However you decide to shop, a little research goes a long way, as the following tips will show.

 

Before you shop, ensure that you are armed with this essential information. Guesswork will certainly not get you the results you want. Be sneaky and take a look in her lingerie drawer. Check the size on one of her newer items. Women’s sizes can change, so make sure you’re up to date! As for pants and slips, simply choose according to her dress size.

 

Beware! It’s rare to find a woman who is not sensitive about her weight. Therefore, be careful not to buy anything too small (she’ll think she’s fat) or too large (you think she’s fat)!

 

You could always ask her size outright and build up the suspense!

 

Your gift is meant to say “I love you”, not pile on the pressure! Buy items that you’re confident she’ll wear rather than what you’d like her to. Remember that you are buying for her! Think about what she already owns and feels comfortable in. For example, if she doesn’t wear a basque and suspenders then there’s probably a reason why!

 

If you can, look at lingerie catalogues together to gather ideas. If you’re buying lingerie for the first time, choose something simple with minimal embellishment and, unless she’s supermodel-thin, go for coverage rather than skimpy. If she responds to your choice, you can always be more daring next time.

 

Please, avoid anything described as “control” or “slimming” – women are paranoid enough as it is!

What colours does she normally wear? What colour clothes are in her wardrobe? Pastel shades? Brights? If your partner does not normally wear racy red, then it’s likely that she’s not confident enough to do so. Don’t scare her off! If unsure, black is normally a safe bet.

 

Good lingerie can be expensive, so don’t be afraid to set yourself a price limit. Aim for good quality items to make her feel special. As any woman will tell you, cheap and cheerful usually means scratchy and uncomfortable and often relegated to the back of the drawer!

 

For maximum “wow” factor, take advantage of our  gift-wrap offer. A gift box and ribbon really finish off the gift and our trained staff will  arrange your purchase to its best advantage, providing much more of an impact, than a garment slumped at the bottom of a shopping bag
 

If you’re still unsure about what to get your loved one, there are two more choices available to you:

a)    give vouchers.

This way you get to spend the vouchers or choose a replacement together, giving you the perfect opportunity to pick up ideas for next time!

 

Buying lingerie should be fun, not an embarrassing chore. It comes with the thrill of anticipation, so do yourself a favour: think carefully about what you buy. The more thought you give, the more fun you’ll have!
