Whether you are buying panty, bra or any other lingerie check your size first.  You must know the accurate size of your lingerie. You can either take the help of a professional at offline store in finding the correct fit or go through the size charts at online lingerie shops like Clovia or Zivame and select that snugs you well.

Often females purchase lingerie because of an attractive fabric that later does not suit their skin, or they find it uncomfortable. Fabrics like Cotton, lace satin, Orangza are ideal fabrics for lingerie. While selecting the lingerie for yourself, stretch it and ensure that the material falls nicely on your body. It should be opaque enough, and the material should not hurt your skin. Moreover, the fabric of your lingerie should complement your dress.

  1. Select your Lingerie According to your Dress

We all have been guilty of wearing wrong bra or panties and getting embarrassed. If you do not want to continue the same, consider the fabric and style of dress while buying the lingerie. If your dress has a deep neckline, go for the bra that has plunging neckline. And, if you are going to wear an off-shoulder dress than you should consider strapless bra. Similarly, you have to look for a seamless panty for body-hugging dress.

  1. Color of the Fabric

Another factor that every woman should keep in mind while buying lingerie is the color of the underwear. It's nice to have colorful and printed lingerie; however, they should complement your dress as well. According to one of the myth white bra is perfect for white dress, on the contrary white bra looks inappropriate under a white dress as the edges of the bra tends to show which does not looks good. On the other hand nude is the best choice for white dressas it gives a seamless look. Same goes for panties and bodice suite.

  1. Pay Attention to the Coverage

If you are purchasing lingerie for the first time, then you might be hesitant in opting for the correct coverage; however, with the time, you will get pro with it. Look for lingerie that offers high coverage that makes you comfortable. Moreover, it should be rightly fitted. The coverage of the underwear depends on the type of dress as well. Opt for the one that compliments your dress and your entire body structure.

  1. Different Brands have Different Sizes

 You should know your size while selecting lingerie for yourself. Often different brands have different sizes, so be sure that you opt for the correct size. Online lingerie stores like Clovia has a complete chart of the size that will help you to choose the right size according to the bra type and brand you have chosen. Moreover, you can make use of the Clovia coupons to score a significant discount on your next purchase.

  1. Consider Season

Season is one of the most overlooked factors. Many women prefer to wear an embroidered piece of lingerie, which is not apt for summers. While buying lingerie, consider the season or look for the fabric that is perfect for all kinds of seasons. Also, make sure the fabric of your lingerie is sweat proof.

  1. The lingerie should accentuate your Body Parts

Whatever lingerie you are picking, ensure that it nicely fit on your body and highlight correct body parts. If you do not have heavy boobs, you can go for a padded bra, or if you have heavy boobs, you can opt for non-padded ones. Also, if you want to create a fashion statement, push-up bras are perfect for you. The same goes for panties as well. If you want to camouflage the fat around your waist, invest in a high waist panty or a padded panty for the ideal size and shape of your hips.
