Victoria's Secret Sheer Lingerie
Lace Lingerie
One popular way to create a sheer overlay effect is through lace. Lace is a classic and feminine fabric with an open, webbed pattern made from thread or yarn. Lace lingerie has a romantic feel—white, pink, and pastel colors have a soft and dreamy look, while black and red have a bold, strong effect. Victoria's Secret ForeverStetch™ lace clings to curves with a super-soft feel and a four way stretch that moves with you.
Mesh Lingerie
Mesh lingerie is another captivating option that is lightweight and alluring. Mesh is a breathable, transparent fabric that creates an exciting look as intimate wear. Mesh pieces often come in a variety of colors and styles, from simple sheer black to playful patterns. This type of lingerie is also known for its versatility since it's popular to wear a simple bra under a sheer bodysuit for a sexy going-out outfit.
How To Style Sheer Lingerie
See-through lingerie can be styled many ways to make you feel confident and empowered. For a special night in, layer a robe over sheer lingerie to give you coverage and warmth or wear a matching bra and panty set under loose pieces like babydolls to add depth and shaping. For a sexy night-out look, wear a simple full coverage bra under a sheer top for a cute peak-a-boo style. Or instead of a bra, layer a big, oversized jacket like a blazer or leather piece for an effortless, modern look. Remember that all sheer fabrics are more delicate than everyday clothes and be careful with accessories and layers that could catch on and rip the fabric.
Fit & Feel: Sheer, See-Through, and Mesh Lingerie
When working with sheer and mesh, finding the proper fit can be more difficult since the fabric is more delicate. Some styles like a sheer babydoll will inherently have a loose, flowy feeling, whereas bodycon teddies typically cling to curves. Use the size chart on each product to confirm the best fit—in this case, size up if you're in between sizes. Comfort also plays an important role in intimates; the fabrics should feel gentle against the skin, so you feel confident and at ease.
How To Care for See-Through Lingerie
Mesh and lace lingerie can be some of the most fragile pieces when it comes to washing. It's best to wash these delicate items by hand in cool water because machine washing is probably too harsh. Fill a basin or sink with cool water and add an appropriate amount of mild detergent—usually no more than a tablespoon. Let the item soak for up to 30 minutes and rinse with cool water until there is no more soap. Reshape the item on a flat towel to dry and store them away from rough materials or accessories that might snag the fabric.
