Men's and women's underwear: boxers and lingerie

Bras and bralettes: Wacoal, Elomi, Freya, and Fantasie

The Wacoal bras, from the Japanese brand, including the Wacoal Le Minimizer and Back Appeal, accompany the Elomi Matilda, Cate, and Molly bras as well as the Elomi Downtime and Energise bralettes. Freya, with the Freya Idol bra, and Fantasie, with its side-support models, complete the large cup bras.

Knickers and shorts: Wacoal, Chantelle, Passionata, and Triumph

The shaping knickers Wacoal Eglantine, the shorts and high-waisted knickers Chantelle SoftStretch, the knickers Passionata Miss Joy and Bella, and the Triumph Feel of Modal knickers cover the everyday lingerie, from invisible models under jeans to high-waisted knickers.

Men's underwear: boxers Sloggi, shorts McAlson, and briefs Armor-Lux

For men, the boxers Sloggi Start, sold in pairs, the Nudie Jeans boxers, the printed shorts McAlson, like the McAlson Fun with Flags shorts, and the briefs Armor-Lux, from the Breton brand in Quimper, cover the men's underwear. A boxer is renewed when its waistband elastic stretches.

Socks: Burlington, Falke, and Jimmy Lion

The socks are part of the selection: Burlington Preston socks, King, Manchester, and Leeds, Falke socks, from the German brand, and Jimmy Lion socks. A cotton sock is worn daily, while a wool sock is for winter. Patterned socks add a splash of colour to a sober outfit, with cropped or rolled-up trousers.

Choosing your underwear: material and cut

Cotton remains the everyday material, soft and breathable; modal, more fluid, feels like nothing under a close-fitting garment; lace dresses up evening lingerie. As for cut, an underwired bra offers more support, a wireless bra is for home or gentle sports, and a high-waisted knicker won’t show under a fitted dress: comfortable lingerie is chosen according to the outfit worn over it.

Women's lingerie, men's underwear, and larger sizes

To see just one wardrobe, women's lingerie and men's boxers and briefs have their selection, and larger size clothing brings together large size lingerie Elomi, Wacoal, and Fantasie.

Thermal underwear, lace or cotton

The thermal underwear, in merino wool or technical fibre, is worn under ski or hiking gear and keeps warmth without bulk. Lace underwear is reserved for fitted outfits, under a dress or fine blouse. Cotton underwear, soft and breathable, is suitable for everyday wear; for sports, a bralette and a boxer in technical fabric dry quicker.

Cheap underwear: clearance, special offers, and Black Friday

The cheap underwear can be found in the clearance sale and the special offers, where last season's collections go. At the end of November, Black Friday lowers the prices on all brands. Fast shipping and best price guaranteed.

Frequently asked questions about underwear

How to know your bra size?

Measure the underbust, directly against the skin, for the band size, and then measure the fullest part of your bust for the cup size, and compare with the brand's size guide. The band should hold without riding up in the back: this indicates a correct cup size.

How to choose the size of a boxer?

Take your usual trouser size and check the waist measurement on the brand's size guide. A boxer that is too tight digs in, while one that is too loose rolls on the thighs: the right size holds without compressing.

How to wash lingerie?

By hand or in a machine in a mesh bag, in cold water, with hooks done up, and always laid flat to dry, away from the tumble dryer which damages wires and elastane. A delicate lingerie lasts longer when washed by hand.

What bra to wear under a t-shirt?

A moulded bra, without visible seams, like the Elomi Smooth moulded bra, disappears under a thin t-shirt. A colour close to your skin is less visible than white under a light t-shirt.

What socks to wear with low-top trainers?

Invisible socks or low socks that stop below the ankle, for a barefoot effect. With high-top trainers, a mid-high sock prevents chafing.
