Lingerie Trends for 2005

Laura Cross

Since the turn of the century, the term Lingerie doesn’t just imply underwear, bra’s, nightgowns or sleepwear. In recent years,  Lingerie  seems to have taken on a name of its own; sexy, seductive, romantic, lace, see thru, erotic, exotic and many other fun analogies.  Lingerie  now could imply: Corsets, Bustiers, Bodystockings, Leather, Gowns, Robes, Open Bust Bras, See Thru Bras, and even Sexy Halloween Costumes as  Lingerie . Today, for a woman to enter a hot nightclub wearing just a sexy camisole is definitely the trend for “Clubwear Lingerie” in 2005. One can walk into just about any store from Walmart to Chico’s and find  Lingerie , not just in the "Lingerie" sections, but also in the Misses & Junior Wear sections of the stores. Yes,  Lingerie  is not just for the bedroom anymore.  Sexy Lingerie is now worn to night clubs, restaurants & parties. Not just under clubwear, but as Clubwear!

Lingerie used to be what was worn under your clothes, but oh how times have changed. Open Bust Bra? What’s that purpose? Well, certainly not to cover the breasts!  Lingerie  is now fun, sexy, romantic, seductive, hot, silk, satin, lace, cotton, erotic, exotic and yes, even comfortable (well, some of it anyway)! There are many ways to describe  Lingerie  in the Year 2005.

Whatever your style or reason for wearing  Lingerie, there is definitely something for everyone (and I do mean everyone, men included)! That’s right, now men’s  Lingerie is hotter than ever. I actually bought my husband  Lingerie for Valentine’s Day this year. Although the lip print cotton boxer shorts were far from “hot & sexy”, he loved them. So women, don’t forget your significant other when it comes to buying Lingerie, because there are many choices today when it comes to  men’s Lingerie . There are Leather G-Strings & Leather Harnesses (wow!) to silk boxers and briefs to elephant thongs and moo cow g-strings. Elephant Thongs? Yes, you heard right!  Men’s Lingerie is far from the stone-age era and continues to become more popular every year. Maybe men are getting more in touch with their feminine side! One can only hope ;)

In short, Lingerie is no longer confined to an “undergarment” term. Lingerie is more sexy than ever with more choices than one can imagine. Whether it’s men’s lingerie or plus size lingerie; feel sexy, look sexy, be sexy with Lingerie!

Understated, elegant and sometimes naughty, sexy lingerie has brought the woman in me and woman the world over.  From lacy elegance to the naughty provocative, the variety of intimate wear is astounding.

You can really express your sexy feminine side with sexy lingerie.  Drape yourself with softest fabrics and the latest, brightest colours.  You can choose from cotton fabrics, satin and silk chemise,

A woman's figure is her canvas, and sexy lingerie is her paint. Adorn yourself with the brightest colors and softest fabrics. Intimate apparel includes cotton fabrics, white panties, satin and silk chemise, sheer babydolls, push-up and shelf bras, leather thongs, and lace g-strings.

Find plus size sexy lingerie in lace-up corsets with open bottom girdles, garters and seamless nylon stockings. For those women who are more conservative, or live in cooler climates, sexy lingerie is pajamas and robes.

Women of all ages enjoy the gentle compression of the latest in shapewear that is designed to lengthen and smooth the most curvaceous plus size body.

Plus size sexy lingerie & more

From bodystockings to an underwire bra, the full spectrum of intimate apparel available to the modern, full-figured woman, is unprecedentedly great.

The white panty category alone is composed of bikinis, briefs, french-cut, g-string, string bikini, boycut, and thongs. All of these styles have their own unique defining characteristics, although sometimes it's difficult to see the difference between a thong and a g-string bikini undergarment.

By the same token, you might wonder what the difference is between a babydoll top and a chemise. Well, the chemise is slightly longer and offers slightly more coverage. Babydolls, on the other hand, are short mini-gowns usually accompanied by a matching panty, thong, or g-string.

Bras – is yours doing you justice?
