So, if you want to look like a million bucks and feel sexy AF – in bed or front of the camera – these 11 lingerie brands are for you.
1/11
Adam & Eve
Best for EROTIC, KINKY, PLUS SIZE Lingerie
Affordable from $3.49
Whether you’re looking for panty thongs, baby dolls, or sexy chemise lingerie, Adam & Eve has a little something for everyone.
To me, Adam & Eve stocks some of the sexiest lingerie around, including curve-hugging teddies plus breathtaking bra and panty sets in a wide range of sizes.
In particular, I like the Adam & Eve Plus Size Sexy Teddy Lingerie, and I find it the sexiest of all on this list.
Editor’s Note:
“If you want to feel sexy, look no further than Adam & Eve’s body stockings and lingerie styles in trendy, colorful, and mood-boosting styles.”
2/11
Agent Provocateur
Best for LUXURY, CLASSY, BRIDAL Lingerie
High-end from $40
If you’re after luxurious and sexy lingerie, you must check out the offerings from Agent Provocateur.
Founded by Joseph Corré, the son of Vivienne Westwood, in 1994, Agent Provocateur is one of the most famous lingerie brands in the world.
I like, in particular, the Agent Provocateur Black Lace Lingerie Set for a special night out, designed to bring out your inner sex kitten.
Another lingerie piece from Agent Provocateur, and my fav of all, is the Silver Mesh Bridal Lingerie, a one-of-a-kind designed as a rare blend of romantic, empowerment and modern boudoir feel.
Editor’s Note:
“Agent Provocateur’s lingerie offering includes many attractions such as matching sets, sexy bras, relaxed panties, teddies, and even dinner-style robes.”
3/11
JulieMay
Best for ORGANIC COTTON Lingerie
Affordable from $48
Blending refinement with an exceptional commitment to skin health, Juliemay is a pinnacle in the intimate wear industry.
Adorned with luxe fabrics like Organic Pima Cotton and Pure Silk, each product – from bras to briefs – is a tactile masterpiece designed to pamper even the most sensitive skins.
From acrylic hardware to hypoallergenic dyes, these brand’s creations are more than lingerie but sartorial investments for the discerning consumer who values beauty and well-being.
Editor’s Note:
“In a world inundated by lingerie brands advocating carnality, Juliemay advances a manifesto of sophisticated comfort with sensual elegance via skin-friendly fabrics dedicated to the wearer’s well-being.”
4/11
Yandy
Best for PLAYFUL, SEXY, PLUS SIZE Sets
Affordable from $4.95
Driven by the “Own Your Sexy” motto, Yandy is a relatively new brand in the lingerie market.
For something more cheeky, consider the brand’s Yandy Bondage Latex Lingerie, a super sexy and charming piece designed to make you look like a rock and roll doll.
Best for panties, teddies, body stockings, hosiery, and lingerie that lets you explore the desires of body and mind, as seen in the Yandy Crotchless Bodystocking lingerie pictured below.
Editor’s Note:
“Yandy’s lingerie empowers people to accept their sensuality in all physical, mental, or emotional facets.”
5/11
Victoria’s Secret
Best for CLASSY, SEXY, BRIDAL Sets
High-end from $65
Hailed as the home of sexy lingerie, underwires, T-shirt bras, hiphuggers briefs, and thongs, Victoria’s Secret lingerie needs no introduction.
For those who want to show off their booty, the Victoria’s Secret Underwire One-piece Satin Teddy Lingerie has the perfect balance and style.
But if the top half of your body is what you aim to accentuate, Victoria’s Secret See-through Matching Lingerie Sets are a must!
Editor’s Note:
“Victoria’s Secret’s new collection goes beyond the classic push-up bras and lace panties to offer fun teddies and seductive robes.“
6/11
Araks
Best for VINTAGE, CLASSY, SUSTAINABLE Sets
High-end from $35
There’s something unique about Araks’ lingerie pieces: the unique combination of vivid colors with classic, even retro lingerie cuts.
Moreover, the label uses sustainable materials to create stunning corsets, garters, balconette bras, and tulle knickers, of course, with an element of vintage design.
Two of my favorite lingerie pieces are the Araks Vintage Slik Slip Dress, suitable for evenings, and the Araks Classic See-through Lingerie Set, suitable for a celebratory event.
Editor’s Note:
“If you’re looking for a lingerie label that ticks the boxes for everyday and special-occasion lingerie, look no further!”
7/11
Dora Larsen
Best for CUTE, MODERN, SUSTAINABLE Sets
High-end from $38
A firm favorite among fashion editors and influencers alike, Dora Larsen is best known for pastel hues and color-block lingerie that feels as dreamy as it looks.
From soothing and amusing to rebellious and cheerful, Dora has them all, such as the Dora Larsen High-apex Lace Lingerie Set or the Dora Larsen Triangle Lace-trim Lingerie Set below.
But, if you’re after a more capricious take on what it means to be sexy, I highly recommend the kaleidoscopic purple lingerie piece, Dora Larsen See-through Lace Lingerie Set.
Editor’s Note:
“Dora Larsen is a contemporary lingerie brand that uses plays of colors to create mischievous lingerie that uplifts your mood, suitable for all ages and body types.”
8/11
Cuup
Best for PLUS SIZE, MINIMALIST, COMFY Sets
High-end from $68
Cuup is a plus-size lingerie brand founded on the knowledge that most women wear the wrong bra size.
The trend was caused by old-school lingerie brands that confined women to smaller, unrealistic fits.
In return, Cuup designs bras that perfectly fit curvy and plus-size bodies without compromising the aesthetic and overall style.
The brand offers five bra styles, four bottom silhouettes, and 40 inclusive sizes, balancing sensuality with everyday practicality.
Editor’s Note:
“Think cut-out detailing, lots of lace, chemises, and corsets for all genders, sizes, and ethnicities; comfortable, vibrant, playful, and above all, affordable.”
9/11
Fleur du Mal
Best for CLASSY, PLAYFUL, LUXURY Sets
High-end from $28
Fleur du Mal is the brand for those seeking indulgent and sensual lingerie sets.
Catering to those who prefer leather to lace, the label allows purchasing faux leather sets, such as the Fleur du Mal Black Vegan Leather Lingerie Bodysuit presented below.
The brand’s Frankie lingerie collection (my fav!) includes a bra, panties, and even the option to cover up with faux leather pants or skirts.
Editor’s Note:
“Provocative and sexy, my brand’s fav is the Frankie lingerie collection, comprised of a lace bra in a balconette style, matching thong bottoms, and a garter belt.”
10/11
Arie
Best for CUTE, COMFY, PLUS SIZE Sets
Affordable from $8.95
Aerie is an intimate apparel and lingerie retailer owned by American Eagle Outfitters.
The aerie line sells dorm wear, loungewear, sleepwear, and swimsuits, and the brand’s Arie Cotton Sunkissed Lace Lingerie Set at under 30 USD is an absolute bargain!
Made from the softest fabrics and with the cutest prints, Aerie’s lingerie will make you feel comfy all season long.
Editor’s Note:
“Of all the lingerie brands on this list, Aerie has the most affordable and stylish undergarments, bras, bralettes, bra tops, and lingerie sets.”
11/11
Calvin Klein
Best for TRENDY, PLUS SIZE, UNISEX Sets
Affordable from $4.55
Calvin Klein is a global lifestyle brand that exemplifies bold, progressive ideals and a seductive, often minimal, aesthetic.
Founded in 1968, the brand has become a top-drawer international favorite, and the brand’s latest lingerie sets combine cuts and colors unseen before.
CK’s laid-back colors and twists on bralettes are designed to enhance your natural shape without crossing the line to sexed-up intimates.
Editor’s Note:
“Designed for everyday, fit-focused lingerie, CK’s offering is equally suitable for a date night at home with your partner or dressing up for a special event.”
