If lingerie is on the list the Valentine’s Day then help is at hand with Debenhams guide to buying women’s lingerie.
Underwear shopping is stressful enough for us ladies let alone so you have our full sympathy (not often given) on this particular task. Underestimating or overestimating her proportions may not end with quite the romantic evening you had in mind so don’t guess and do the research before you buy.
1) The key to buying your lady lingerie is to be a little bit naughty – steal her underwear. Making sure you buy the right size is vital, so take a peek at what she’s got…
2) While you’re rummaging in her drawers, take note of all the different types of colours and fabrics she likes – this will later allow you to choose a style she’ll feel comfortable in.
3) Once you know what you need to look for, have a think about what she would like, not just about what you want. Think about it; if you buy her something she loves, you’ll be sure to see more often than not.
4) Don’t be shy about chatting to the sales advisors in store – they are experts in their field. Describe her shape, together with her personal body likes and dislikes (time to prove you’ve been listening…) and they’ll be able to guide you in the right direction.
Finally, you need to have a think about her style. We’ve rounded up a few of our favourites…
