L'histoire de la lingerie

What's your favorite era in the history of lingerie?

Women have worn garments and fabric to support, hide, or accentuate their breasts as far back as 3000 B.C. Lingerie has a rich history including the celebration of the womanly figure in the 1800s, the 1950s "sweater girls", and the burn-your-bra activists of the 1960s Women’s Liberation Movement.

We've seen lingerie styles nod to fashion trends decades before; older styles have returned with a twist and new styles have pushed the very definition of lingerie. We love all of it and still get excited every time we open a new shipment of bras and panties.

 

Below are a few photos to show you how much lingerie has changed over the years.
