Lingerie is the best thing to buy yourself for Valentine’s Day. Because, when the red roses have wilted and that trip to your favourite French restaurant is long forgotten, you’ll have something left to cherish.
Which is why it’s important to pick wisely when selecting your Valentine’s Day underwear. How to guarantee longevity? Feel free to embrace romantic textures and colour palettes. Think fabrics like silk, satin, tulle and lace in shades of pastel pink, scarlet red and dusty rose. But, steer clear of gimmicky motifs like teddy bears, roses and love hearts (although Agent Provocateur’s Cupid set is our one exception to this rule – it’s too good to resist).
Whether you’re celebrating alone, with your friends, or planning a romantic date, there is something for every version of 14 February in our edit of the best Valentine’s Day lingerie.
