How do you choose lingerie for someone you love - especially for the first time?

From Expert: Bianca

Shopping for lingerie for a partner - even one you’ve been with for decades - can feel overwhelming. A recent visit from a client celebrating 50 years of marriage reminded us how simple (and meaningful) the process can be with a little expert guidance.

He arrived with his wife’s sizes written down but wasn’t sure which colors would flatter her. After asking for a photo, we paired her strawberry-blonde hair, brown eyes, and olive complexion with warm jewel tones. Two pieces instantly stood out: Romy in Bisou and the Dita Von Teese Vedette. While choosing, he shared stories about their life together - proof that thoughtful gifting never goes out of style.

An hour after leaving, he called to say thank you. Moments like that are why we love what we do.

Expert Tips for First-Time Lingerie Gifts:
• Bring her sizes (a quick tag check works).
• A photo helps us guide color and style.
• Tell us the occasion - romantic, celebratory, or everyday luxury.

We’re here to make your first lingerie gift not just successful, but special.

Expert Tip: A first-time lingerie shopper came to celebrate his 50-year marriage. With her sizes, a photo, and expert color guidance, we helped him choose the perfect gift. Here’s how to pick lingerie for someone you love - with confidence.
