Perfect Piece of Lingerie

Lingerie is not only a simple piece of underwear that you wear beneath your outfit but it exceeds this by far. The right piece of lingerie can boost your self confidence and rectify any flaws you feel toward your body. Simply, the right piece of sexy lingerie can make you feel that you are the sexiest woman on earth and help you enjoy your intimate life with your partner.

Choosing the right piece of lingerie for your body depends on several factors. The first factor is your body size. Every body size has its own choices from sexy lingerie to make it look beautiful and charming. For example, if you have a petite body then, you need to choose the lingerie piece that increases the size of certain regions of your body. 

A bustier or a wire framed bra can help to boost the size of your breasts and gives them desirable extra volume. In the same time, a wire framed bra is not suitable for a woman with an extra large breast unless she wants an extreme look of a sex goddess!! If you are a plus size then you should choose something that sculptures your body and gives you a thinner look. Sexy lingerie that is draping on your body and those made of opaque materials are the best for you. 

They will give you the sexy look you are looking for and in the same time they will not reveal the real size of your body. Some plus size women are reluctant to wear sexy lingerie because they think that it will not suite them but, if you choose the right lingerie for your body type then you will get the look you want.

Choosing the fabric is very important too because it help delivering the sexy appearance and slims down your body. Leather sexy lingerie is suitable for small sizes because it fits snuggly around the body and shows the beautiful body you have while lace tied lingerie and corsets are more suitable for larger sizes because they slim down your body and cleave your waist region to give you an adorable look.

Designer Lingerie : Tips For Choosing and Cleaning

Designer lingerie are lingerie produced by top designers. They cost a lot more than other lingerie sold in the market. This is for the reason that they are made with material of good quality. Also, the fact that they are made by designers with popular names in the fashion industry means that they can

Designer lingerie and your attributes

Most designer lingerie have such a good design that they have a way of flattering your figure. However, in most cases, it's a matter of choosing those which match well with your own attributes. For example, in choosing the color of your bras and other designer lingerie, you don't have to always base it on the tone of your skin. Instead, you can use your hair color as a determining factor of the designer lingerie's color. If your hair is brunette, consider wearing earth tones or strong colors. If red is the color of your hair, choosing either earth tones or sassy colors is advisable. Lastly, if you're blonde, then it's best to consider donning pastel colors for your designer lingerie.

Cleaning tips

Since most designer lingerie are made of quality material, they typically last longer than other lingerie. That is not to say that you must not take into account proper maintenance. In fact, most designer lingerie have delicate material which can't be cleaned or maintained by just any kind of detergent. That’s why it’s always best to refer to manufacturer’s instructions for safe maintenance.

When cleaning designer lingerie made of cotton, you don’t have to worry about their durability. They can usually be washed using a washing machine. However, the difficulty lies in the drying. Most cotton designer lingerie expand horizontally and/or shrink vertically after subjecting them to heat in the dryer.

If your designer lingerie is made of silk, you only have two options. One is to wash them by hand and two is to send them to the dry cleaner. If you opt to do the first process, make sure that you use mild laundry soap. Do not rub them too much as this can effect damage on them. Use lukewarm water when rinsing them. Instead of drying them with a dryer, use towels to twist dry them. After this, you can use iron to dry them while they’re still damp.

But at the Wickedelic Lingerie warehouse, perched on the very edge of Dartmoor, they find themselves under siege from a wide variety of wild creatures.

Of course, this leading online and mail order supplier of erotic lingerie has nothing to do with real wild animals, nor has there been a mass breakout from Paignton Zoo or Dartmoor Wildlife Park but rather it now offers a wide range of this seasons must have look – animal print effect lingerie.

Lingerie specialist Van de Velde selects Lectra VectorLingerieMX

Lectra, the world leader in integrated technology solutions dedicated to the fashion industry, is pleased to announce that Van de Velde, specialist in luxury lingerie, has acquired the VectorLingerieMX to optimize its production.


Established in 1919, Van de Velde designs and manufactures luxurious women’s lingerie under the brand names Marie Jo, Marie Jo L'Aventure and PrimaDonna with impeccable product quality as their main objective.


In line with this philosophy, core activities such as design, product development, prototyping, fabric cutting, and quality control are performed at the company’s headquarters in Schellebelle, Belgium.

Guided by the desire to satisfy their very demanding clientele of around 5 000 people worldwide, the company presents 300 new models and ships more than five million finished articles per year.


Van de Velde: stringent specifications
With a view to guaranteeing permanent quality products, whilst at the same time increasing productivity, Van de Velde carried out a study of the different options available on the market.

One of the biggest challenges faced by the company is to ensure the highest possible cutting quality for all the components that are used to make their products.


Lingerie articles contain many components, which are often small and intricately shaped, and the slightest fault in cutting complicates the whole system, and may lead to a serious drop in product quality.


Having tested and assessed existing machines, in the end, Van de Velde settled on the Lectra VectorLingerieMX which provided the best offer in terms of quality, efficiency and productivity.

Lingerie From Then Till Now

Let's begin with the word Lingerie itself. What does it mean? Where did it come from?

The word itself is of French derivation and originally meant "linen goods". The actual word can be traced back in history as coming from "linum", the word used for flax.

Now "linen goods" does not bring to mind any images of the scantily clad women we see today so it seems as if it went through some kind of transition. In 18^th and 19^th century England, it was considered improper for a woman to openly refer to her underwear in normal conversation and polite euphemisms were used instead.

The French of the time simply referred to "women's underwear" with the French word lingerie as a substitute for that which you did not openly discuss. Lingerie of the time had the sole purpose of absorbing sweat and other body fluids in an attempt to preserve the much more expensive outer wear. The clothes of the day were not mass produced in China; they were mostly handmade to order by a family member or a professional seamstress etc. The point being, outer wear was considered expensive, hard to come by, and therefore had to be looked after and kept clean. Underwear was therefore made of cheap linen which could be washed often and replaced much more easily and affordably.

So how did the French word lingerie find its way into the English language? Corsets were already in use by Victorian women during this time but they used the word 'corset' as is. The corset is therefore not responsible for popularizing the word lingerie. It comes from another French invention called the brassiere which became known to the English and Americans during the roaring twenties, spurred on by early Hollywood films which threw a spot light on beautiful women with desirable bodies in sexy dresses. Soon everybody was talking about the gorgeous movie stars and women wanted to shape their bodies and style their hair to resemble the screen icons of the day. The brassiere became the hot item and the French became seen as the "knowledgeable source" of desirable women's underwear.

The brassiere was originally designed only to support the breasts but its versatility was quickly recognized and over a relatively short time its use branched out to cover the many needs of the day. The question for women was; what did you want to do with your breasts? Just provide support, support and lift etc. The versatile brassiere could be designed to fit any need. Styles changed from flat to pointy to naturally rounded. Men took notice. Women noticed that men were interested which just fueled the fire.

Stockings, suspenders and brassiere became collectively referred to using the French word "lingerie" because it sounded more exotic and mysterious than any wording the English speaking marketing people could come up with. Thus the word lingerie became popular and ingrained as the term used to describe "special women underwear" as being something different to functional women underwear.

Shaping peoples' bodies to emphasize certain features is hardly a new idea. Paintings from Crete (ancient Greece) depict Minoan women wearing a type of corset to slim the waist and push out the breasts to make a feature of them.

This is typical of the changing and different viewpoints among various cultures and times. Most of today's men would love to bring back the Minoan dress code for women. Their culture did also have its advantages. Women were treated as equals and garnered as much respect from men as they did admiration.

Learn About Your Lingerie

Today women who want both comfortable and exclusive lingerie don't find their size and good fitting. The different distribution channels propose only standardized lingerie and none tailor made. Women want to be sure about the right sizes, and perfect fittings. This article talks about the various aspects of Fabrics used for lingerie and different shapes of lingerie to gracefully present the women's body.

Fabrics used for lingerie

Lace

Lace is a lightweight, openwork fabric, patterned with open holes in the work, made by machine or by hand. Lace-making is an ancient craft. True lace was not made until the late 15^th and early 16^th centuries. A true lace is created when a thread is looped, twisted or braided to other threads independently from a backing fabric.

Originally linen, silk, gold, or silver threads were used. Now lace is often made with cotton thread. Manufactured lace may be made of synthetic fiber. A few modern artists make lace with a fine copper or silver wire instead of thread.

There are many types of lace, defined by how they are made. These include:

Needle lace: made using a needle and thread. This is the most flexible of the lace-making arts.

Cutwork, or white work; lace constructed by removing threads from a woven background, and the remaining threads wrapped or filled with embroidery.

Bobbin Lace: as the name suggests, made with bobbins and a pillow.

Tape lace: makes the tape in the lace as it is worked, or uses a machine- or hand-made textile strip formed into a design, then joined and embellished with needle or bobbin lace.

Knotted lace: including Macram and Tatting.

Crocheted lace: including Irish crochet, pineapple crochet, and filet crochet.

Knitted lace: including Shetland lace, such as the "wedding ring shawl", a lace shawl so fine that it can be pulled through a wedding ring.

Machine-made: any style of lace created or replicated using mechanical means. The machine is used to tie up the 'M' point together.

Muslin

Muslin is most typically a closely-woven unbleached or white cloth, produced from corded cotton yarn. Wide muslin is called "sheeting". It is often used to make dresses or curtains but may also be used to complement foam for bench padding. Muslin breathes well, and is a good choice of material for clothing meant for hot, dry climates.
