LBB’s Ultimate Guide To Festive Lingerie: Everything To Know Before Buying

We'll go out on a limb and say this; you cannot have too many bras. And while that's the case, during festive season bras become just as important as our outfits. And choosing the right one makes all the difference. For example, for a backless saree blouse, or a halter neck salwaar suit, the bra you'll need all differs. For that, here are our top three picks from NYKD by Nykaa for you to stock up on this festive season.

Shape-wear's sole purpose is to make sure your outfits look chic, structured, and well sculpted. And this festive season you can make sure you look all that and more. With the rise of saree shape-wear, you can make sure that your saree doesn't only sit well, but give you the structure you desire. Further, you can always opt for other shape wear too! Here are a few of our favourite picks from NYKD by Nykaa.

When all else fails, we know how important lingerie accessories are! Be it fashion tape, push up inserts, or even pasties, there are things that often go to the bottom of our shopping lists, or are forgotten about completely, however, this festive season we're making sure you don't run into an emegenrcy and urging you to get your hands on these inner-wear essential accessories asap!

When it comes to the most comfortable bra to wear with an ethnic outfit, it truly depends on what you're wearing. Usually a basic push-up bra along with a full-coverage saree blouse, or a suit top gets the work done.

However, if you're someone who is not comfortable with wired bras, push-up bras, or padded bras, we'd suggest you start by wearing said inner-wear much earlier to get used to it because they truly enhance your outfit's fitting.

You should always opt for inner-wear that is comfortable to wear for long hours. Full-coverage or seamless depends on the requirement of your outfit. However, we'd highly suggest using a seamless bra in order to not have any form of bulges or peeking when you're wearing a skin-fitting top.

The only thing to keep in mind when choosing shape-wear is to choose your correct size. It is important to be comfortable and being able to breathe even when you wish to look snatched! So all in all, shape-wear isn't chosen based on body type, instead it is chosen based on your size.

Moreover, when it comes to saree shape-wear against a basic saree petticoat, we'd highly recommend going for a saree shape-wear since it helps the saree fall better while also giving your body the desired shape you want.

Yes, you can easily wear a bra under a halter neck or strapless bra. All you have to do is either wear a multiway bra whose straps can be manipulated to follow the lines of your halter neck, or wear a strapless bra, both of which you can scroll up and buy from NYKD by Nykaa!

If you cannot wear a bra with your festive fits, and still need support and some form of coverage, then fashion or body tape is the way to go! You can use this in multiple ways and contour the tape according to your blouse/top style.

When it comes to hacks, before placing the tape always ensure you are not perspiring, or have a layer of unaired moisturiser on which might effect the stickiness of the tape.
