Femininity is always a big look come summer in the world of high fashion. The catwalks are awash with floral prints pretty delicate detailing and natural flowing cuts and colours. The high end fashion trends inevitably trickle down to the accessible high street stores and yes into your local lingerie section too.

Flowing Fabrics
In the world of sexy lingerie there are some great summer staples no girls should be without. Your outerwear is going to be all about flowing fabrics such as silk and chiffon so don’t let your underwear disappoint! For that ultimate sultry girlish look go for silks all round. Chiffon is also great for something both sexy and breathable!

Camisoles
The biggest item of the summer so far has definitely got to be the camisole or baby doll. They look so super feminine and come in loads of different styles and colours. Go for the fun loving look with bright girly binks and reds or the sensually suggestive style with a classic black and red combo.

The Glam Look
Swim wear has seen a big push towards the fifties glam look and this seems to have seeped into realms of lingerie. Dressing up as your favourite pinup style fifties icon can be one of the most fun endeavours you can come across, whether it’s you and the girls messing around or your having fun with your partner, the bombshell look couldn’t be easier.

The pin up must have is a balconette bra. Couple this with sexy high wasted briefs an you have the ultimate glamorous lingerie look. Balconettes are so hot right now you will be able to find everything you need form any reputable UK lingerie store such as Ann Summers.

Polka DotsAs well as the obvious floral prints and patterns to reflect the natural beauty of the season, polka dots are in style big time. This could again, be to do with the fifties chic coming back into fashion but these fun little button sized formations make for a classic flirty look!

Cocquette
One of the newest items to be added to the lingerie repertoire is the cocquette. Cocquette bras are really fun and are a really exciting secret to keep just under your clothes! Featuring the normal dimensions of a standard bra, cocquettes have an added half corset style extra that covers some of the torso and is enough to make you feel a little sexier than a normal bra!
