Planning a romantic time with your special someone takes a lot of strategising. The occasion, place, time, set-up and mood, all need to be right. Of course, the first thing that comes to your mind is what to wear. A visual cue of you donning your best lingerie, looking confident and sexy does most of the trick. It’s not as easy as it sounds. To know the perfect fit, it’s always good to know what suits your body type. Here are a few tips to know before you set out to buy lingerie for the special day.

1. Apple Shape

Your body tends to have a heavier torso, but the trick is to add the illusion of length. The goal here is to enhance the assets; your breasts and thinner limbs. A deep V neckline of a bodysuit does that. Because you don’t really need a padded bra a bold, slightly underwired bra can be a good option. A V-cut underwear will show off the legs. A strappy baby doll with a V cut-out gives the same illusion.

2. Pear Shape

With the bottom heavy body, the trick is to draw attention to the top. A push-up lacy bra or a ruffled bandeau does that. Also, wearing a contrasting bright colour on top is helpful. Team it with low-waist panties, and you have a stunningly sexy look. A see-through gown with a cut in the middle will draw attention to the upper body.

3. Hourglass Shape

It’s the perfect body shape, but to accentuate it, the area in focus should be the waist. Padded lacy bra with a sexy underwear is a winner. To highlight the waist, you can add suspender belts. A tight see-through slip does justice to your curves.

4. Rectangular Shape

The main goal is to create curves for such a body type. A demi cup underwire bra enhances the breasts, and a high-cut panty shows off the legs. A corset lingerie helps define the silhouette for your body.
