It might very well be the season where we're more concerned with layering up [1] than stripping down, but that doesn't mean we don't take just as much care in choosing our lingerie as our outerwear [2]. Besides, there's nothing quite like the perfect underthings, whether or not anyone else but you knows you're wearing them. And because we take our growing lingerie collections so seriously, we have compiled quite the industry-insider list over the years. Ahead, find our 12 favourite lingerie brands — from classic cotton jersey styles to extraspecial lace and mesh sets — that we know, love, and can't wait to shop in 2020 and beyond.
Le Petit Trou Aventure Bra and Jeu Briefs
Le Petit Trou takes your go-to lingerie favourites and adds a little whimsy. Whether a sheer material, star-embellished pattern, or ruffled accents, the young Polish brand is one of our favourites when it comes to elegant and fun day-to-night wears.
Le Petit Trou Aventure Bra [3] ($78) and Jeu Briefs [4] ($78)
Cosabella
Cosabella will forever be the classic—with a twist. The brand stocks the most classic of styles in nearly every colour of the rainbow, but there's something about the. Mesh and lace detailing, trimmed necklines, and the like that simply make them feel more special than most of the rest.
Cosabella Soire Confidence Molded Bra [5] ($69) and Soire Confidence Boyleg [6] ($31)
Aritzia
Aritzia has several in-house brands that come together to form a mighty band of bralettes that are made of cotton, lace, mesh, and more. With most retailing for about $25, feel-good retail therapy has never been so real.
Talula Montery Bralette [7] ($22)
Eberjey
Eberjey is sweet and sexy all rolled into one. Their easy-to-wear bralette styles always feel so French girl cool, while sweet and innocent at the same time. We love the brand for their selection of lingerie that secretly hides beneath even the skimpiest of clothing, but also can't wait to be shown off too.
Eberjey Colette Plunge Underwire Bra [8] ($65) and Colette Classic Lace Thong [9] ($42)
ThirdLove
Born in 2011, this brand does even more than offer extended sizing. Built on the belief that everyone's body is unique, they not only offer 78 different sizes, but that also includes half-cup sizes for large and small-chested alike.
ThirdLove 24/7 Classic T-Shirt Bra [10] ($68) and Comfort Stretch Thong [11] ($12)
Only Hearts
Another classic, Only Hearts will forever make the list of best lingerie brands of the year. Whether you're on the hunt for the perfectly invisible T-shirt bra, statement-making slip, or wide range of bodysuits to be worn at home or outside alike, this is the brand for you.
Only Hearts So Fine Lace Underwire Bra [12] ($46) and So Fine with Lace Hipster [13] ($45)
Free People
With a bohemian vibe, Free People is the flower child-inspired lingerie brand that you didn't' know you needed but now can't live without. They stock everything from mainstay essentials to special-occasion tops and bottoms, all in deep tones, bright neons, and perfect neutrals alike.
Free People Lace Triangle Bra [14] ($38) and Lace Thong [15] ($12)
Eres
Eres is certainly not for the girl on a budget, but we promise that you will get rewarded for your indulgence, tenfold, if you buy a set from the French brand. The brand produces lingerie and swimwear alike and—in either category—you're sure not to find a more timeless, yet beautifully intricate, classic anywhere else in the market.
Eres Non-Wired Sheer Bralette [16] ($187) and High Waisted Briefs [17] ($113)
Savage x Fenty
Rihanna [18] has succeeded in creating the most fierce lingerie line that's totally size-inclusive and still retains it's kick-ass attitude, through and through. With Savage x Fenty, you might go for the cotton bikini briefs, but you'll emerge with a bustier, lace bra, and maybe even a sheer bodysuit to style with.
Savage x Fenty Shimmer Floral Lace Triangle Bralette [19] ($10) and Floral Lace Cheeky [20] ($7)
