Bridal Lingerie Basics:
Let our beautiful bridal lingerie complement your wedding dress! The first bridal lingerie tip is to know that selecting ivory wedding lingerie is preferable to white under your white wedding dress. Many times, a white wedding dress isn’t actually white, but more on a warmer, creamier white side. Ivory tends to blend better with both your skin tone and the color or your dress. Your bra needs to not only accommodate the neckline of your dress, but provide good support and lift, then be comfortable during hours of dining, dancing, and posing with relatives. Bridal corsets or longline bras are a great choice – especially with strapless dresses, because this bridal lingerie piece makes certain that you stand and sit up straight, gives great back support, and insures that the bodice of your dress will not become wrinkled throughout the evening. A bridal corset or bustier also gives an even tone under a more sheer dress all the way down to your waist. With all those cameras flashing, you don’t want to discover lingerie lines when reviewing your wedding photos after the big day. And a longline bra with garters and stockings is the ultimate sexy bridal lingerie ensemble.

Many bridal boutiques offer decorative lacy bras and bustiers that can be as expensive as your gown. While some of these elegant brassieres have unique proportions that can be quite useful with the right gown, make comfort your top priority and think about whether or not you will ever use this garment again. If, like your gown, it will be a one-time wear, you will be better off finding something that may be less lacy but does the same job for a lot less. You’ll find great price ranges in our bridal lingerie department.

Wedding lingerie panties should be given careful consideration. Select a pair of panties that will be comfortable. A sexy thong is great, but let’s face it, no one is going to see it, there’s jut no way to adjust a pair of creeping panties under a wedding gown. And, if you’re planning on having your garter removed, you don’t need a too zealous groom lifting up your skirt too high and revealing your uncovered back side. However, if your wedding gown is sheer or particularly tight fitting, you may want to consider abandoning traditional bridal lingerie for panty hose with knit-in panties for a completely smooth look.

As for women’s pajamas, they can now be short sleeve or sleeveless like the Oscar de la Renta pajamas. Cotton pajamas are the norm like with our P-jamas and Hanro pajamas. But Vanity Fair pajamas made in nylon are a classic. The pajama style is a classic one, but there are sexy pajamas out there as well.

As mentioned above, the babydoll in women’s sleepwear has been very popular. Its popularity stems from the fact that it’s short and usually teamed up with a thong to make for very sexy sleepwear. Baby doll lingerie is not going away any time soon. HerRoom carries baby doll sets by Dreamgirl and Rhonda Shear.

Plus Size Sleepwear:
HerRoom has worked very hard to create a plus-size sleepwear collection. For some reason, most manufacturers don’t consider that full figure women need plus-size sleepwear. We’re excited about our Rhonda Shear sleepwear. Rhonda Shear has put shelf sleepwear into sleepwear to give breasts some support when sleeping. This plus size sleepwear line also goes up to size 3X. Read our customer reviews. Rhonda Shear sleepwear is creating quite a following.

Robes and Bathrobes:
A robe just isn’t a robe. When it comes to robes, there are several types. For example, spa robes are the soft white terry cloth robes that you put on to get dry or to feel warm. Bathrobes or bath robes are any robe you want to put on when getting out of a tub or shower. Kimono robes can be a silk robe or satin robe with long full sleeves and a wrap design. And of course there is that comfortable flannel bathrobe that always makes you feel better even if you happen to be under the weather.

Caftans are robes but without the wrap design. Very popular are front zip caftans which can be stepped into and quickly put. A caftan is a great travel outfit. It doubles as a robe or as an outfit. And, women with limited dexterity can easily put them on. Moroccan caftans slip on over the head and generally have embroidery or embellishment. They also tend to be made in lively colors and prints. Natori, Amanda Rich and Oscar de la Renta make fabulous caftans.

HerRoom carries a great selection of robes and bathrobes. Fernando Sanchez robes come in both kimono and wrap styles with great colors. Josie Natori is famous for her beautiful women’s sleepwear and robes. In fact, Natori makes beautiful matching nightgown and robe sets as does Fernando Sanchez and Oscar de la Renta. Beautiful silk robes are made by Mary Green. Hanro cotton robes are classic and glamorous coming in long and shorter versions. If you are looking for a more youthful robe, P-Jamas has great soft and comfortable wrap robes. Natori also came up with the marshmallow wrap robe that when you see it makes you want to shed all your clothes and jump inside.

Women’s sleepwear as you can see is diverse in terms of silhouette and lifestyle. A new sleepwear category to arrive has been wicking sleepwear. Designed for women entering menopause, wicking sleepwear moves night sweat away from your body. The result is a comfortable night’s sleep. Wicking J is just such a line. Silhouettes in this line include nightgowns, pajamas, pjs, and short sleeve top and boxer set.
