There has been a recent rise in the sales of lingerie - and Christmas is an ideal time to buy for the woman in your life. There's a huge range of styles, colours and fabrics available from the romantic and sophisticated to the daring and playful. The images below show only a few of these - see the designers/suppliers' websites for more information about their full ranges. All sell British-made products (Red Box also sells products from elsewhere, so check origin if it's important to you).
Not all men are comfortable buying underwear for a woman. Is this too daring, too revealing, too uncomfortable - will it fit? Luckily lingerie retailers are familiar with, and sympathetic to, this problem. Red Box, mentioned below, have an excellent gentleman's guide to buying lingerie on their website; you can find it here. Links to suppliers and/or designers are given under each image
