The Sophisticate
What to pack: For you, it’s all about looking put-together, so you’ll definitely want to stick with a matching set or a stunning stand-alone chemise. It’s the details that will really show off your sophisticated style. Look for menswear-inspired trims, like bow ties and pinstripes. On lingerie, they’re more ladylike than macho. As for color, nude hues (caramel, tan, blush pink, or cafe au lait) will keep you covered without seeming too stuffy. A contrasting trim, like in black or burgundy, automatically adds a refined elegance to these skin-toned shades.
We love: The look of a delicate demi cup bra and panty set. This one with scalloped lace trim, tiny bow ties, and structured seams is both sexy and chic.
