When it comes to creating a spring-summer lingerie solution, it starts with knowing the types of outfits you will be wearing in the course of the season, which is why it’s always good to start by creating your capsule wardrobe first before putting your lingerie together.
Summer dresses can be sheer, form-fitting, and transparent, so for these types of outfits, you want to look into black seam-free panties that will not be put on display, and the panty lines not disfiguring your favourite silk trousers and skirts when wearing them.
Spring – Summer season also requires a lot of shirt wearing, this means you will also need lightweight, breathable if possible, seam-free t-shirt bras in beige, black, or white.
There will also be many dinner dates, special occasions, etc, this is where strapless bras for those strapless dresses come in, you will also need girdles to cinch the waist and thighs, and you’re best bet with firm but gentle support girdles also to be seam-free to avoid the girdle lines showing in your outfits. Some girdles nowadays can come in one-and-half-thigh designs to fit thigh-high side slit dresses and skirts.
You might also need lace and silk balcony bras for romantic nights, including thongs, etc. When it comes to loungewear lingerie, boyfriend boxers shorts, and bralettes will be great for days you’re home for comfort or running errands down the high streets. For casual days in the mall shopping, at the supermarket, or at work, breathable cotton panties in thongs, full briefs, highcut, etc including bras, all with seam-free character should be enough.
The hot season also requires swimwear, this is where the bikini buttons and tops come in, go for them in various designs from high waited, to triangle and plunge tops, including swimsuits, the list goes on.
The key points to note when choosing your lingerie for the spring-summer season are breathability, comfort, seam-free, size range, and lightweight, as we all know the weather can be hot, so you need a lingerie solution that aids comfort, and supports large bursts. Thank goodness many brands have put a lot of these on the market with various skin tones and neutrals, from padded to plunging, and in bandeau and underwire designs that will cater to your particular preferences and needs.
Finally when building your lingerie, start with the basics that will fit many outfits for work, casual days, gym, etc, then move on to convertible bras that have detachable straps for when going strapless or full-on to pair with various silhouettes of outfits, from halter necks to blouses, tops, dresses, and t-shirts, etc. You should also look into adhesive bras for backless dresses and backless girdles that flatten the stomach while the back is bare.
