Lingerie Gifts That Actually Fit (And Wow)

Gifting lingerie can feel like a minefield sexy in theory, awkward in execution. Whether you're shopping for a partner, a friend, or even yourself (hey, we love that for you), the key is getting it right: the style, the fit, and the feeling. So, let’s break down how to give lingerie gifts that are thoughtful, flattering, and guaranteed to bring joy.

Why Lingerie Makes a Great Gift

Lingerie is more than lace and straps. It’s confidence in fabric form. The right piece hugs natural curves, enhances comfort, and empowers the wearer to feel like their most radiant self. That’s the kind of energy you want your gift to carry, right?

But it only works if it actually fits and feels good. So let’s start there.

1. Know (or Guess) the Right Size

Don’t know their exact size? No stress. Here are a few workarounds:

Check their laundry (with permission, please).
Ask a close friend who won’t spill the beans.
Use a bra size calculator or check our size chart for guidance.
Ask us! If they have shopped with us before we can look up previous purchases and guide you to something they will like and might actually fit too!

If all else fails? Choose options that are a bit more forgiving like lounge lingerie, slip dresses or full-coverage underwear or one-size-fits-most underwear in neutral tones or bold colours.

Pro tip: Our team is always happy to help match sizes, just give us a ring.

2. Stick to Comfort-First Styles

No one wants to feel like a sausage stuffed into lace. Choose styles made for real bodies and real comfort, like:

These styles are soft, flattering, and adapt to various body shapes without compromising on comfort.

3. Look for Thoughtful Details

Little things make a big difference:

Lace detailing or intricate embroidery
Luxurious lace with soft lining
Chantelle Soft Stretch Hipster Brief with moisture-wicking comfort for all-day wear

They might not say it, but they’ll notice it.

4. Go for Versatile Colours

Classic black is always a safe bet. But so are:

Deep reds (hello, festive season) like the Chantelle Waltz Tanga – Poppy Red
Forest green
Blush or beige tones
These colours work beautifully across a range of women’s lingerie and women’s underwear styles. They suit most skin tones and are easy to wear under everyday outfits.
