30 of the Best Lingerie Brands

From brands like Wacoal Lingerie, Myla, and Skims by Kim Kardashian, to amazing lingerie pieces that are more affordable by Spanx, AdoreJoy, and AvidLove, there are lingerie options on today's market that will fit any woman's style, color preference, and budget so they can step out with more confidence.

The word “lingerie” comes from the French word linge, also known as linen. This makes sense as the first types of underwear were made of linen material but by the late part of the nineteenth century, the word lingerie was being used to describe the type of sexy undergarments or outfits that are used as a form of erotic pleasure during sexual play.

Whether you are planning a romantic tryst with your partner, a honeymoon, or just want pretty matching bras and underwear to make you feel your best, whether anyone else will see them or not, pretty and sexy lingerie has a place in nearly every woman’s life at some point.

I remember the first time, decades ago when I bought my first matching underwear and bra set. For some reason, having a pair of panties on that match your bra makes you feel extra sexy and special and gives you confidence, even if you are the only one who will ever see them. I also bought my first thong that day and realized they are not as uncomfortable as I thought they would be.

Beautiful lingerie seems to make women feel better about themselves and more confident and there is nothing wrong with that. One of my friends used to sell lingerie for a company that did direct sales so the parties were in the hostess’ home. Those were some of the most well-attended parties I have ever thrown or have witnessed other people throw. Way more women seem to show up for a lingerie or sex toy party than ever have for Tupperware.

Here is our list of the top 30 lingerie brands on the market today. Some are pricey while others are more reasonable and of course, there are many other brands out there that will also fit anyone’s budget.

Whether you prefer to wear high-quality materials such as silk and want to purchase elegant, more expensive lingerie from brands like La Perla or shapewear by Skims that is owned and operated by Kim Kardashian, or prefer less expensive pieces of lingerie, there is an option on our list for you that will fit with your budget as well as your style.

At most modern weddings, the bride wears a garter around her thigh area that will later be taken off by the groom during the wedding reception as she sits in a chair and usually music plays and people clap. The groom then throws the garter to a group of single men who have gathered around and whichever single man catches the garter, is said to be the next one that will get married.

Oftentimes, the bride will wear a garter that is borrowed from a friend or family member, one that has been handed down for generations and is considered old, a brand new garter, or one that has the color blue in it to coincide with the old saying that a bride should always wear something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue during their wedding for good luck.
