Sexy lingerie
When you go to the effort of dressing up for your partner, it’s important that you feel comfortable, empowered, and most of all, hot! Sexy lingerie sets can really elevate the mood but let’s face it, choosing the right style for your body type can feel overwhelming! Don’t worry - our team have you covered!
In this guide, we share our top tips for finding the perfect lingerie for your body type and how to keep your favourite pieces looking as good as new!
Choosing the Right Set for Your Body Type
Here at LoveKinx, inclusivity is at the heart of everything we do. No matter your age, gender, body type, or what you’re into, everyone deserves to look and feel great! To help you find the perfect fit, here’s our breakdown of the most common body types and how to choose sexy lingerie sets that flatter your figure!
Pear-Shaped
If you’ve got a smaller frame up top but larger hips, you’re most likely what is called ‘pear shaped’. With this body type, you’re going to want to balance your proportions whilst accentuating those curves!
Our Leg Avenue One Size Floral Lace Thong Body is completed with adjustable straps and a cross over detail to the chest area, so that you can sinch in your bust and create a fuller look. It’s also high leg to draw attention to your hips and waist too!
Apple-Shaped
If your midsection is fuller and you have a shapely bust and hips, you’re rocking what is known as the ‘apple shape’. The goal here is to highlight your bust and legs while creating definition at the waist.
Our Leg Avenue Lace and Net Halter Teddy is a total showstopper! The combination of a halter neck and low-cut detail really helps to draw attention to your bust. It’s also high leg, accentuating your curves!
Hourglass
The ‘Hourglass’ figure is all about balance and people with this body type usually have a larger bust and hips with a small, defined waist. To really highlight these features, look for lingerie that emphasises your waist and curves.
Choosing something that sits higher on the leg and sinches in at the waist is the best way to do this. Why not try our Leg Avenue Cut Out Bodysuit with Thong? It’s even available in two different colours – yellow for a pop of fun and black if you’re looking for something more seductive!
Rectangle
Rectangle-shaped bodies are evenly proportioned between the shoulders, waist, and hips, creating a straight silhouette. The trick here is to add a touch of softness and shape.
Our Moonlight Mesh and String Mini Dress is the perfect choice, featuring cut outs to the hips to create the illusion of curves. The off-the-shoulder design also accentuates your collar bones, creating an effortlessly feminine look – combining both sweet and sexy!
How to Hand Wash Your Garments
Handwashing and airdrying your sexy lingerie sets is the key to keeping them looking as good as new! These garments are usually made with delicate materials such as latex, lace, and satin. With this in mind, most washing machine and tumble dryer settings are far too harsh. If this is your only option due to time restraints, always opt for the gentlest cycles.
Below is our step-by-step guide on how to handwash your new sexy lingerie sets properly:
Step 1: Fill your sink, bath, or a large container with warm (but not hot) water. If the instructions specifically say to use cold water, do this instead!
Step 2: Add some detergent and swirl around to create bubbles.
Step 3: Soak your garments for 5-10 minutes. Rub detergent into any heavily stained areas to loosen the dirt.
Step 4: Swirl around your lingerie and rinse with cold water until there is no soap left on the garment.
Step 5: Hang to dry in a warm space, such as a heated drying rack (on a low temperature) or airing cupboard. Avoid wringing out the water. Instead, press gently to prevent stretching the fabric.
