Want to Buy Your Girlfriend Lingerie?
We've Got You Covered


First of all, major brownie points to you for wanting to surprise your special someone with Lounge lingerie. You've got good taste.

Secondly, we know that buying lingerie for your girlfriend can seem like a daunting task - but we promise, it's not that hard. We've come up with the ultimate step-by-step guide to buying your girlfriend lingerie, so you can feel as confident in your purchase as she'll feel in her new set.

Step 1: What's Her Size?

There's no right or wrong way to go about this, as long as you're being respectful. But as a rule, you'll be able to find out her bra size by checking the inside of the band of one of her current bras (simple, but effective). Don't forget to check what size her bottoms are too!

If you're still not 100% sure, there's nothing wrong with asking her! It's better to be sure than to risk buying the wrong size.

(Psst - we have a generous Returns Policy, and we offer exchanges for all products - so if you don't manage to pick the perfect size, don't panic!)

Step 2: What's Her Style?

A girl's underwear drawer can tell you a lot about her personality - so make sure you buy your girlfriend lingerie that fits her character.

Think about the colors she loves, where she shops, and who her girl crush is. Remember, you're buying for her, not for you - so if you'd love to see her in turquoise, but you know her favorite color's red - then go for red.

Another top tip is to check whether she prefers a brief, thong, or g-string too – so you can be sure you're buying your girlfriend lingerie that she'll be confident and comfortable in, all day long.

Buying your girlfriend lingerie is a super-personal present, so make sure your gift is a thoughtful one.

Step 3: What's Her Go-To Bra Style?

This one can be tricky, but stay with us...

There are so many different styles, cuts, and shapes of bras - it can feel a little overwhelming. Lucky for you, we've broken it down into 4 main categories (there are soooo many more, but this will give you a good starting point).

Wired Bras:

If you want to buy your girlfriend lingerie with a little bit of extra support, a wired bra is what you need. The iconic Blossom Balcony is one of Lounge's bestselling sets for a reason - the details in this set are super-flattering. It's also available in 10 stunning colorways.

Non-Wired Bras:

If your girlfriend wants all the support with none of the wires, a non-wired bra is the perfect choice. Our range of non-wired bras is designed to provide ultimate comfort - so she'll be able to wear hers whenever, and wherever, she wants. Take a look at the Lace Triangle Bra - this set will look just as gorgeous when styled with an outfit as when paired with her favorite loungewear.

Non-Padded Bras:

If your girlfriend loves a super-comfortable bra, our range of non-padded bras has endless options for any personality and every occasion - you're bound to find something she'll love.

Push-Up Bras:

This style of bra does exactly what it says on the tin - it pushes up the cleavage to give a fuller look. If your girlfriend wants to enhance her natural curves, a push-up bra will be your best bet. Try the super-sexy Anti-Gravity Set, which boosts cleavage by 2 cup sizes. (That's a lot).

Step 4: What's in Her Wardrobe?

Think about her current wardrobe. Which of her clothes make her feel the most confident? That's the vibe you should go for when buying your girlfriend lingerie.

Does she love loungewear? Does she enjoy dressing up? Does she wish she had more everyday underwear, or is she longing for a special set?

It's also worth looking at the materials she loves to wear. Whether she's partial to lace, embroidery, mesh, or cotton, there's a Lounge bra for her. We use lots of different fabrics across each of our bra styles, so whatever her preference, you're bound to find a winning combo.

Have a think about what she already owns, and think about the bra styles we listed above. Now it's time to put it all together - the color, the style, and the set - and you should find the perfect present for your special someone.

Whatever reminds you most of her is the one you should go for. It's guaranteed to make her day - and, let's be real, it's the safest bet.

Step 5: Add a Gift Box

This is the last step, we promise.

Adding a gift box to your order is the perfect way to add some extra luxury to your girlfriend's lingerie gift.

It's sleek, it's premium, and it's tied with a white satin ribbon - a Lounge gift box is truly the ultimate finishing touch to any present.
