Yes, lingerie is especially cute for those romantic date nights with your partner (or yourself), but we would argue that the best lingerie brands are a wardrobe essential. For days when you really want to feel yourself, a sexy set can give you that confident boost underneath. To help you find the best options, we brought you a list across all budgets, styles, and sizes. You can pick from bras for small boobs to bras for large busts. If you’re looking for something more loose, we found plenty of cute bralettes that double as loungewear (our faves are from Free People and Aerie); comfortable thongs for all-day wearing like editor-beloved Parade; memorable bridal lingerie sets for the big night from For Love & Lemons; and shapewear bestsellers from Skims.
If you’re refreshing your top drawer, some of the best lingerie brands now offer options that are a whole lot more supportive and size-inclusive. Cuup and Thirdlove represent all women’s body types with their wide range of sizes. While others, like Kiki de Montparnasse, Journelle, and Savage x Fenty, home in on the experience of wearing sexy lingerie with materials and cuts like corsets, garter belts, and bodysuits that look amazing but are also exceedingly comfortable. Below are our top picks for the best lingerie brands to add to your top closet, stat.
You may be familiar with Journelle for its expert curation of designer lingerie, but the boutique also designs its own gorgeous bras, thongs, and sleepwear under the Journelle Collection label. Most of the styles are for everyday wear, like their push-up and plunge bras, balconette bras, demi bras, and briefs, but there are a few cheeky surprises if you want something more enticing.
For Love & Lemons makes fun, flirty, and whimsical silhouettes—garter sets, cutout one-pieces, and corsets—in detailed fabrics and prints. If you’re looking for retro high-waisted bikinis that’ll make waves or the perfect bustier top, For Love & Lemons has you covered.

Just because it’s unlined doesn’t mean it lacks support. Cuup’s innovative mesh bras won over a number of Glamour editors; check out our Cuup’s swimwear collection review. The pieces are made of a single airy layer that supports and shapes you in all the right places. Don’t miss the new swimwear pieces, either; the brand debuted a handful of one-piece swimsuits and beach coverups that are perfect for vacation.
