Many of us have a tricky relationship with lingerie. We might have grown up in households where owning our sexuality was frowned upon, or we might not have seen our body types in the lingerie models of the '90s and 2000s. Whatever our relationship to lingerie is, many modern lingerie brands have worked to dismantle the judgments, fears, and insecurities, we might have, helping us to feel confident and empowered in our skin (and a chic lacey thong).
We researched many of those modern brands to find the ones that make us feel the most confident, sexy, empowered, and bold in our bodies—from a lingerie company that has been around since 1916 to modern designers with a lens on inclusivity.
Keep reading for Byrdie’s picks of the best lingerie brands, along with some shopping advice from Paula Agelucci, the district manager at Adore Me.

Adore Me
Adore Me is one of our favorite lingerie brands for a few reasons. First, the price range for the level of quality is outstanding (and kind of shocking, to be honest). But, on top of that, the brand offers a subscription service, which is kind of similar to Fabletics but for lingerie. It works like this: Each month, you visit the online showroom between the 1st and 5th to shop styles at discounted prices. If you don’t see anything you love, you can skip the month. Plus, you can always cancel and choose to shop their styles as needed. The subscription is great because you get access to more sales, discounts, and other perks (such as a free set on your 6th order).

Etam
Etam is one of the oldest lingerie brands and blends timeless styles with modern designs. Founded in 1916, the French lingerie brand has a variety of luxury lingerie styles ranging from intricate to simple, making it a one-stop shop for undergarments. Whether it’s a sensual lace corset or a tulle silk bra that doubles as an everyday essential, there’s something for everyone at Etam. One of the most impressive things about Etam is, that despite being over a century old, the brand continues to adapt and progress. In 2018, Etam created a responsibility pact, promising to move toward more sustainable fashion through eco-friendly or upcycled fabrics, responsible practices, and fair trade.

What to Look for When Buying Lingerie
Bodysuits: Stretchy Material and Adjustable Straps
“For bodysuits, look for a good stretch material to support you,” says Paula Angelucci, the district manager at Adore Me. She also recommends looking for styles with adjustable straps for the best fit.
Babydolls: Underwires
“Make sure babydolls are cup-sized and have an underwire, so you get the fitted look at the top,” Angelucci explains. “The bottom part doesn’t need to be too tight-fitting, so you get a perfect flow on the bottom.”
Bustiers: Adjustable Straps
Angelucci recommends bustiers as “a great option to camouflage and smooth excess side breast tissue.” She recommends investing in a bustier with adjustable straps and three back clasp options to give you the ideal fit and comfort.
Corsets: Full-Tie Options
“Corsets are a must-have staple in your lingerie wardrobe,” says Angelucci. “For corsets, you want a full tie option in the back with tight-fitting clasps for the front—this will give you the most flattering fit,” she explains.
Everyday Bras: Breathable Fabrics and More
“When shopping for comfort bras for everyday wear, look for soft, breathable fabrics and stretchy materials,” Angelucci recommends. She also says it’s best to find options with fully adjustable elastic straps, as well as three back clasps so you can ensure a good, comfortable fit.
