The Vengaboys singing ‘we like to party’ always makes me go ‘who doesn’t?’. But like everything else in the world, partying also needs great commitment. Especially when you’re an adult and your wardrobe doesn’t cooperate. Buying the right party dresses is enough of a hassle – owning the right kind of lingerie for those dresses is another. You know what I mean, right? It’s not as easy as buying the hottest outfit you could think of. Your bra and underwear need to be the right kind.
Imagine wearing a backless dress with a regular black bra. I mean, the back is the whole point, right? The bra just disrupts the scenery. This is just one instance. From barely-there dresses to how-low-can-you-go dresses, there’s a perfect lingerie piece for each of them. Here’s the cheat sheet to the best dress-lingerie pairings:
