While many are familiar with the common terms like bras and panties, the lingerie lexicon extends far beyond these basics. Have you ever wondered about the name of the intricate lace piece that adds an extra layer of mystery? It's called a babydoll. And the high-waisted briefs that invoke a sense of retro charm? Those are affectionately known as French knickers. Understanding these terms not only helps you shop more effectively but also lets you express your personal style with precision and confidence.

Comments
Beryl: Oh gosh ! My sister wore the bullet style bra ,like an ice cream cone,back in the 50's . Think her boobs came round the door before she did ! She thought she looked like Jane Russell. My mum wore rigid corsets and we used to lace her into them at the front.
Monta: Perfect very detailed very useful I love it
Patracia: Great article for the beginner. Well done.
Joanne: Am confused with bra sizing so if am a 34 x 38 cup how do I subtract an know the cup size?
Sapna: Nice article thanks
Brittany: I wish the pictures were a bit larger, difficult to read the small lettering. Great article otherwise!
