Choose with care what you buy
That why is it essential that you choose your lingerie and underwear with ‘Care’.
Life is not black or white so your drawer should not be. Life is a rainbow; full of experiences, situations, opportunities, meetings, parties, appointments, social life, leisure, commitments…Your lingerie drawer should just be as flexible as your wardrobe is to support you in each situation. And as a fan of Women I really think every woman should own different style pieces of lingerie in her lingerie drawer to enhance the beauty of her body:
– strapless to match with your bustier top,
– black, black is always a go for it and an easy one to wear with your little black dress,
– Colourful, you need colour in your day and in your life. Don’t make your life boring with everyday black or white
– Padding, push-up, triangle, bustier, corset, body, briefs, Shorty, thong, Italian briefs…there is so many way to enhance your beautiful body and to match the shape of your out day wear.
– Lace, silk, cotton, satin, stretch, technical fabrics, Guipure, brocade, organics fabrics, velvet lurex, Cashmere, tulle, liberty, lycra, jersey, muslin…so many fabrics, so many feelings to make your day each time particular and different one from an other
Sizes and Measurement
It is important for reasons of health, comfort and appearance to wear a bra that is the correct size for you. There are certain basic measuring guidelines, but these are only ever a guide as we all differ a little in bone structure.
Bras :
Measure the chest immediately underneath the bust, keeping the tape as tight as possible. This is the Underbust measurement, which gives you the correct back size.
Next, measure over the fullest part of the bust (not so tightly this time), which will give you chest+breast measurement resulting in the overbust measurement, this gives you your cup size.
You’ll find on the right, an explicit chart.
Warning, all measurements are done in centimeters. It gives you your french size.
If you already know your own size in your country, or if you need a conversion due to different sizes used by designers, you’ll find the conversion charts below.
