New luxe lingerie for brides-to-be

Do you want to wow your hubby on your first night as Mr & Mrs? Or are you looking for lavish lingerie to enhance your curves and give you big-day confidence? We’ve rounded up our favourite new W-day (and night) undies, from the shapely to the sultry…

1. If you want briefs that hug your curves in all the right places, head to Chantelle to check out their Sexy Shaping line, designed to provide essential support, while allowing you to feel, and look, sexy and seductive. This new collection is super feminine – think open bust corselettes and high waisted panties, both with gorgeous lace detail – they'll have your man weak at the knees.

2. For a more sultry style, Triumph Essence, modelled by the gorgeous Helena Christensen (see pic), will drop into selected Triumph stockists from September this year. With four new lines available, you'll be spoilt for choice when it comes to deciding what to wear for your W-day. We’ve spotted their Luxurious Essence line, with dreamy cream and black lace bodydresses and beautiful bras; perfect if you’re going for a vintage look.

3. If your style is more fun and flirty than Mimi Holliday's cute-as-a-button new 10-year anniversary collection is the one for you. Available in a range of delicious designs, including the oh-so-prettily named Cotton Candy, Very Cherry and Berry Drop, you're guaranteed to look as irresistible as they sound! What’s more, this collection is perfect for bigger busted brides, with Mimi’s maxi sizes available in everything up to a GG cup. Head to their pop-up shop at Selfridges, London during September to view the new collection and receive personal fitting advice.
