Lingerie for lockdown

We are without doubt, multifaceted women with multifaceted wants and desires at different times in our lives, and sometimes, with different wants within days or hours (hurrah for the joy of changing our minds).

We are also, naturally, picky about our underwear and lingerie. Sometimes we may want to be held firmly in place and feel what it is to wear sensuous ‘grown up’ lingerie, other times, as we’ve firmly established; we want to be comfortable and there is no room in our lives for pinching wires, digging in straps and inadequate support – however beautiful, special or expensive the lingerie.

Thankfully the market is providing – here is a round up of some gorgeous bras, bralettes and the odd knicker or two that are beautiful, supportive (mainly), elegant, and comfy.

A little while back Triumph launched a revolutionary bra called Fit Smart, doing away with ‘normal’ sizing of cup and back sizes for bras, they developed fabrics and foam with suppliers that would enable just 4 sizes being needed to cover cup and back sizes from 32A to 42DD/48B – there are no wires, but fabric and padded cups that mould to your body and ‘hug you’, offering support and an uplifting shape.
Triumph Fit Smart Padded Bra £40 – there are six colours available and co-ordinating briefs.
