Lingerie

The first items of lingerie were believed to be worn by the Ancient Greeks and Egyptians. The Victorian age wore heavily cinched corsets, and the early 1800’s gave birth to the bra. Well, today’s fashions have a host of beautiful, sexy, and comfortable assortments of lingerie.

Lingerie comes in all sizes- from petite to plus sized, there is even a new line of maternity lingerie. Whether you prefer baby dolls, teddies, or just lacy bra and panty sets, every woman deserves to treat herself to beautiful lingerie. Lingerie is made in an array of fabrics. Most lingerie is made from stretch lace. This type of lace clings to the body and conforms to the woman’s natural shape. Many teddies, body stockings, and panties are made from stretch lace.

Most well-known lingerie companies like Victoria’s Secret and Fredericks of Hollywood have brought lingerie into American homes through mail order catalogs. Victoria’s Secrets runs from sizes 0-16 and they exclude plus size lingerie from their products. Frederick’s of Hollywood does carry some plus size lingerie in sizes 1X, 2X, and 3X.

There are however companies which cater only to the plus sized woman. The company Hips and Curves offers a wide variety of lingerie choices for the ample woman. They carry baby dolls, body stockings, bras, bridal, bustiers, chemise, corsets, costumes, garter belts, gowns, hosiery, leather, panties, patent leather and vinyl, skirts and dresses, and teddies. Their “one size” is queen and that fits a woman who is size 16-22 and who wears queen size hosiery. They also carry some lingerie items in “super size” which are sizes 46-52.
