The Luxurious Lingerie Brands To Know For Gifting Season

Agent Provocateur is renowned for its sensual silhouettes and craftsmanship, and the ‘Rozlyn’ bra and briefs set is the perfect example. Adorned with floral embroidery and satin bows, the balconette bra cups are underwired for lift and support.

The collection also offers a range of colors and styles to choose from, including the ‘Dioni’ bra and briefs, which feature playful interlaced detailing, and the PVC-crafted ‘Zarya’ set in a striking shade of red to bring out your mischievous side. Each meticulously crafted piece is designed to delight, so whether it’s a gift to yourself or a loved one, lingerie like this makes the perfect present.

Red is undoubtedly the color of the season, and British label Coco de Mer is championing a lavish cherry hue. By mixing architectural accents with classic lingerie silhouettes, the brand has created a glamorous aesthetic that feels cool and contemporary. The ‘Astrantia’ bra, for example, balances a halterneck silhouette with a plunging neckline for just the right amount of reveal, while adjustable straps bring ease of wear. Pair with the matching pants and slip on the slinky lace-trimmed robe for a sensual vibe on Sunday mornings.

Meanwhile, French designer Kiki de Montparnasse was inspired by 1920s Parisian boudoirs, and wanted to mix this après noir mood with a day-to-day approachability. That’s why her graceful designs, which feature exquisite embroideries and lace accents, are crafted from super-supple tulle and made to feel like a second skin, slipping seamlessly under everyday outfits. Handmade in New York with couture-like precision, the brand has become known for its refined take on sensuality. Take the ‘Enchante’ bra as a case in point: an elevated take on the everyday soft cup, it is crafted from lace, offers superfine straps, but also boasts a smooth edge to ensure it can be worn under simple cotton T-shirts. Elsewhere, the ‘Camille’ balconette bra features laced, scalloped edges, plus a smooth satin back panel that brings an underwear-as-outerwear sensibility – slip it on with tailored pants for a festive party this season.

And if there is a label that understands versatility, it’s Deiji Studios. The Australian-based loungewear brand has become renowned for its easy-wear separates, dresses and shorts that can be worn to bed, brunch, the beach, or, indeed, under something chic come winter — offering comfort without losing an ounce of cool. The ‘03’ field check set (a relaxed take on the classic pajama silhouette) is ideal for vacation wardrobes requiring a day-to-dark sensibility, and will prove soothing to slip into after a long day. For something more polished, look to the off-center tie set, which, with a shirt-like top and relaxed pants, is a lounge co-ord that feels fresh. What to wear underneath? A lacy balconette bra, of course.

No matter the mood or moment this festive season, indulge in intimates that bring joy every time you open the drawer.
