The first question a sales person will always ask is "What size is she?" Try not to guess. Strategic planning is the best option. There are several ways to find out a correct size.. You can ask a friend, you can check out her lingerie and of course, you can always ask her. But knowing her size or preferred style or colour is only half the battle. To inspire you to help you make a selection, we have explained the most popular types of lingerie in Opium Boutique Lingerie Style Guide below -
Body or bodysuit is a one-piece figure-hugging stretch garment that extends from the shoulders to the crotch, usually with snap closures at the crotch.
Bustier is a bra that extends to the upper waist and often has detachable garters.
Corset is known as a boned or stiffened garment, which is meant to mould the body into a desired shape, e.g. an hourglass figure with the bust and hip area balanced and the waist drawn in.
G-String or a string brief, assumed to be named after the finest string on a violin, G-String refers to any brief with a 'string' or thong back.
Garter Belt is an elasticized belt with four elasticized straps or garters suspended from it; a rubber stub and loop at the end of each garter are fastened to the stockings to keep them up.
Guepiere is known as the “cincher” in the United States, this new style of corset designed by Marcel Rochas in 1945 had a boned waistband of 5 to 8 inches which hooked at the back and gave the thinnest woman curves.
Hold-ups are Lycra-based stockings that stay up on the thigh on their own.
