There's more to it than many of us have thought.
The lingerie dress can be traced through three distinct periods that surround World War I: Pre-War (1900-1913), Wartime (1914-1918), and Post-War(1919-1929). Its evolution within the greater period was influenced by Parisian couturiers, changes in women's societal roles, wartime restrictions, and the relaxation of proper strict Victorian social conventions.
Lingerie can showcase a woman's personality. It helps defines a woman as beautiful, feminine, strong, and elegant. It creates a sense of excitement every time she puts it on. It is a bold sexy wrapped in black and red lace. For others, it is a freeing sexy adorned with pink and white lace.
Lingerie comes in different pieces for different personalities. Lace bras and panties are for when a woman is feeling confident and bold. Comfort bras are for when a woman wants to feel beautiful in her skin but also sexy. Some women prefer lacey lingerie over non-laced counterparts depending on her preferences. Lingerie shows personality.
Lingerie is more than just important to a woman. It is important to those around her. It shows us who a woman is-- her preferences, desires, dreams and fantasies.
Some might compare lingerie with bikini.
Here's how bikini differes from lingerie :
The bikini is swimwear. Women wear a bikini because they allow for easy movements when swimming but for more motion. They are usually made from elastic fabric resistant to the salt or chlorine in the water, and that dry out faster.
