How to Choose Lingerie as a Gift: 5 Rules to Get It Right

Men, listen up: buying lingerie for your lady is not just a chance to give her something special, but also a way to indulge your own ego a bit. To make sure this gift brings joy to both of you, follow these five simple rules.

Men, listen up: buying lingerie for your lady is not just a chance to give her something special, but also a way to indulge your own ego a bit. To make sure this gift brings joy to both of you, follow these five simple rules.

Size is a Code, Not a Mystery

The first and most important rule: forget about all those mysterious numbers and letters that indicate bra size. Your mind can easily get tangled in these designations, so just remember the size your significant other wears. Generally, breast size remains fairly stable. As for panties, bodysuits, robes, and pajamas, you can choose from more straightforward sizes like XS, S, M, and L.

Consider Her Taste, Not Just Your Fantasies

Remember, lingerie is not only about fulfilling your own fantasies but also about pleasing your lady. If she has never been seen in fishnet stockings, buying her a garter belt might be a bit odd. Conversely, if your partner believes lingerie should reveal rather than conceal, a basic set might not be her style. Find a balance so the gift delights both of you.

Don’t Hesitate to Ask

To navigate all those bralettes, bustiers, and corsets, you either need to be a fashion designer or ask store consultants for help. Don’t be shy about asking questions and seeking advice — consultants will gladly help you understand women's lingerie and find something suitable.

Price Matters

Never forget that good lingerie can’t be cheap. This is a given that’s hard to dispute. If you want to give a truly great gift, be prepared to spend a bit more. After all, it’s an investment in your relationship and your own pleasure.

Gift Card as a Backup

If you’re completely lost and don’t know what to choose, don’t worry. Just buy a gift card from a lingerie store. Your lady will know exactly what she likes and can pick out lingerie that she’ll love. Meanwhile, you can breathe a sigh of relief and enjoy the outcome.

So next time you’re picking out a gift for your lady, remember these simple rules. And may your choice bring joy and pleasure to both of you!
