During these unprecedented times, we have found ourselves at home. ALL. THE. TIME. With limited places to go and little we can do, we have found ourselves reflecting inward more... and being comfortable while doing so. Workout, lounge, and athleisure fashion has skyrocketed in sales during the pandemic, but you know what else has? Lingerie.
We have found that what we wear underneath it all is just as important (if not more) as what the world can see.
I have compiled a list of the top 21 lingerie brands of 2021. I have broken this list into three sections: High-End, Budget-Friendly, and the Classics. As a bonus, you can also take a style quiz to find your perfect look as well!
WHAT IS YOUR LINGERIE STYLE QUIZ:
Top 7 High-End Lingerie Brands of 2021
1.) Taryn Winters
By no mistake, Taryn Winters is at the top of my list. Taryn has one of the most beautiful bespoke lingerie brands on the market. Taryn Winters lingerie is just living art. This brand is the perfect combination of elegant, subtly sexy, modern, and feminine. Her brand is made for women of all sizes. You can see how movement and flow were naturally built into the silhouettes of her work. Nothing was an afterthought, and it's clear.
My Favorite Pieces:
2.) Honey Birdette
Honey Birdette is made for women who know what the hell they want out of life. Honey Birdette is one of the top lingerie brands on everyone's list, and for good reason. This sexy ass brand does an AMAZING job letting the woman tell her own story. Her beauty and sexuality are not defined by someone else, she makes the rules. Honey Birdette continues to push the limit in both design and attitude. This lingerie is for the confident, sexually assured, and dominating woman. If I were to describe Honey Birdette in three words it would read" ultra-feminine, desirable, and demanding. Their website is fucking POPPIN'!!!!!
My Favorite Pieces:
3.) Journelle
Journelle is your one-stop-shop for an array of high-end lingerie brands and designers. These brands include Chantelle, Natori, Bordelle, and Only Hearts. Journelle is run by women for women and includes styles, moods, and vibes for every situation.
My Favorite Pieces:
4.) Agent Provocateur
Agent Provocateur is the GODMOTHER of SEXY AS FUCK lingerie! Let's keep it 100%. This is the original gangsta of unapologetic luxury lingerie for women! Agent Provocateur always provides innovative cuts, fabrics, and styling. If you are looking to push it to the max and still smell like Gucci, this is your brand.
My Favorite Pieces:
5.) for Love and Lemons
Every time I visit the Love and Lemons website, I feel like I have been invited to the cool girl's table. For Love and Lemons is for women who love their lingerie to have a dual purpose. To be both fashionable and functional. Recently they introduced a beautiful collab with Victoria's Secret that you MUST check out (spoiler art, they made this list too).
My Favorite Pieces:
6.) Tisja Damen
I won't lie, this brand only recently popped up on my radar. I enjoy finding a new brand to purchase from. Tisja Damen is a European based lingerie company, but the extra shipping cost may be with the price. Tisja lingerie is raw, real, and romantic. I appreciate how her pieces are made for everyone's body type.
My Favorite Pieces:
7.) Impish Lee
Impish Lee stands out from the crowd by offering customizable intimates for every body type. Soooooo fetch. The landing page on the site allows you to pick the color you want of your ideal lingerie. Additionally, it requires you to choose your skin complexion to help start your own journey of being a lingerie designer. Not ready to be a lingerie designer? Then shop from their ready-made collection. Goddess sized women, this is your website!
My Favorite Pieces:
BUDGET FRIENDLY LINGERIE
8.) Fashion Nova
Fashion Nova is the NUMBER one spot to go if you are looking for fast fashion on a budget, but don't overlook their lingerie section. If you are looking for daring, fun, and CHEAP lingerie quickly, then Fashion Nova is the spot.
My Favorite Pieces:
9.) She-In
If you need an array of beautiful and colorful lingerie for EVERY style type, then stop by Shein. I would say that Shein is more affordable than Fashion Nova. I have seen pieces as cheap at $2 on this site. However, most pieces start at $8. In recent years Shein's supply chain has evolved. Therefore, you aren't waiting long to receive your sexy pieces.
My Favorite Pieces:
10.) Amazon
I know! I know! When you think of lingerie, Amazon is not the first site in mind. However, they do have an array of choices. While Amazon is not a cheap as Shein, if you have a Prime account, your pieces will be at your house in under 48 hours.
My Favorite Pieces:
11.) WISH
Wish sells EVERYTHING, including lingerie. The only downside about Wish is that it could be a hit or miss if your lingerie is actually is mailed out from the vendor. However, the trade-off could be you purchasing cute lingerie set for $1. If your product doesn't arrive, Wish is great about refunding your money.
My Favorite Pieces:
12.) Savage Fenty
Rihanna did the world a favor by introducing us to Savage Fenty. If you are looking for lingerie that is affordable, trendy, and can fit EVERY sized woman, then Savage Fenty is your brand. You also can take a style quiz Savage Fenty can accurately recommend lingerie pieces for you.
My Favorite Pieces:
13.) Playful Promises
Playful Promises is another lingerie site that caters to women of all sizes. The best part? Their pieces are fun, modern, and well... playful. Playful Promises prices may be on the more affordable side, but they look high-end and unique.
My Favorite Pieces:
14.) FigLeaves
Not going to lie, I LOVE this brand's name. It is so clever. As far as design goes, there is sophistication in simplicity. If you are looking for something cute and casual to wear around the house but still sexy enough to entice an afternoon romp, this is the look for you.
My Favorite Pieces:
The Classics
15.) Victoria's Secret
You can't make a top lingerie list without Victoria's Secret. This brand has aligned itself as the authority of sexy. Victoria's Secret is likely where most of us started buying cute underwear after graduating from whatever big box store our parents were taking us. Victoria's Secret has really stepped up its game in recent years. Going so far as collaborating with other high-end lingerie brands (like for Love and Lemons).
My Favorite Pieces:
15.) Aerie
If comfort is your one and only concern, then Aerie it is! Aerie is both the perfect blend of classic and modern. This brand stays on top of the trends but never strays from the self-identity it's created.
My Favorite Pieces:
17.) Nubian Skin
Finally, lingerie has more than ONE definition of "nude". Nubian Skin is a BoB (Black Owned Business) created by Ade Hassan. This line of lingerie caters to the more melanated women of the world. Ms. Hassan's line was launched in 2014 with four skin-tines for women of color. Check our her Harpers Bazaar interview on her five golden rules for success.
My Favorite Pieces:
18.) Wolf & Whistle
If you're looking for something casual but still hot enough that it will cause a 5 alarm fire, then off to Wolf & Whistle we go! Wolf & Whistle does a marvelous job of balancing sexy and fashionable. Its designs are sexy but not intimidating. Inviting for all eyes.
My Favorite Pieces:
19.) Anthropology
I know! I know! When you think of lingerie Anthropology is not the first place your think of. However, trust me on this one. If you are looking for super cute low-key pieces to wear around the house, then check out Anthropology.
My Favorite Pieces:
20.) Bravissimo
If you are a full cup or bigger chest woman, Bavissimo caters to your tribe. I'm like you, my cup size is a DD, and it is damn near impossible to find comfortable, cute, and fashionable lingerie pieces to wear in and out of the bedroom. Cup sizes start at Ds and go up from there.
My Favorite Pieces:
21.) Lounge Underwear
If you are looking for something fun, colorful, and dominating, then LOUNGE should be a brand to check out. LOUNGE is poppin' on social media and often finds itself selling out on the site when new pieces are dropped. The best part about it, the sets are super affordable AND don't look cheap. The BEST part about LOUNGE is that this brand allows you to really customize your bra and panty sets. For example, some companies may just say you're large and mail you the run-of-the-mill large. LOUNGE allows you to pick your actual size bra size and bottoms. Bonus? They go up to a DD!!!!!

Catherine D'Lish
I have to say that I LOVE ME SOME CATHERINE DELISH. Her robes are a WHOLE mood. This is what I imagine women in the '50s wore after poisoning their billion-dollar husbands after years of cheating scandals. If you are doing a boudoir session, this is a MUST have piece!
