Underwear fashion seems to largely depend on where you live!
In Ireland
it’s all about dark colours, apparently, according to
this online article which had one member of the Lingerie UK team dashing home
to try out the tip about the red bra under the white T-shirt (yes it works but
only ‘sort of’, you can definitely see something under the white but somehow
the eye doesn’t really pick out the lines of the bra, also the quality of the
T-shirt really matters, a Primark top might as well have been see-through while
a Gap cap-sleeved T-shirt was completely opaque to the red brassiere). When it
comes to wine coloured lingerie, we are all in favour - as an example our
made-to-measure Jane Woolrichburgundy corset is absolutely stunning.
As for plunge bras, we never noticed that they
had gone out of fashion - whilst the high street retailer might not have seen
these as a consistent seller, for specialist online lingerie retailers like www.lingerie.co.uk this bra style has been a constant. This year our top pick is the Aria Pastel plunge bra
from Lise Charmel … it’s so pretty it’s like a flower strewn picnic blanket on
a summer’s day!
India has a different take on lingerie
It’s very often the case that Indian fashion news doesn't
get covered much in the West, which we think is a shame. So over in New Delhi
the claim is that wave prints, marine themes and yellow and orange are key
colours whilst camisoles as outerwear are also ‘hot’.
We love the beach vibe discussed in this article
but we often find that too much beach can cause you to blend into the
background - seriously, in a marine themed bikini on a seahorse printed breach
towel with a palm-print cover up you run the risk of becoming scenery! We prefer the idea of standing out from your
surroundings by blending beach friendly colours such as sand, gold, turquoise
and marine green with glorious contrasts such as fuchsia pink and hot animal
prints. That’s why we like leopardskin swimsuits, for example. And when it
comes to cover-ups, what could be better than a feminine sarong in crisp white
and at such a bargain price?
So whether it’s Ireland or India, we believe
that we’ve got your fashion bases covered!
