That's why these are our current favourite lingerie trends:
Velvet
In the true spirit of comfort and cuddles this winter, we look to Distraction by Bonang’s latest collection of lacy, velvety lingerie. For anyone enthused to try velvet undergarments, this one’s for you.
Soft cups
The soft cup trend is likely a result of the of the bralette obsession we saw surge in 2017, and it is a much-welcomed option to our bra choices. A brand that knocks this trend out the park is none other than Savage X Fenty, thanks to Rihanna and her team.
Sheer
Mesh and non-padded lace has been doing the rounds in the mainstream lingerie space and it makes quite a statement.
Cotton briefs
When Beyoncé rocked these back in 2013 in her 7/11 music video, the deal was sealed that this is a must-have item of underwear.
There’s also a reason why classic Calvin Klein briefs have become the quintessential briefs aesthetic. With comfort, ease and now an array of styles to choose from, cotton briefs are just the best.
