The Lingerie Virgin - Small Sizes

The Lingerie Virgin: If your partner's bureau is full of white cotton bras and knickers, this is the place to start. The key thing about buying lingerie for a woman is to make sure that she feels comfortable and sexy wearing it, not embarrased and upset. With that in mind, we've chosen these pieces to help women look beautiful without baring a lot of flesh and feeling uncomfortable.

Smaller Sizes: These pieces are especially chosen for women of smaller bust sizes or generally of a smaller size. Your choice isn't limited to just these items, though, check the other size categories as many sizes will overlap.

Cami Set


This black two piece set from Contessa in the UK is a perfect match for the Lingerie Virgin. The camisole has a lettuce edge and lace trim. The matching shorts are comfy and also include the lettuce edge hem. Best part is they are on sale. You can pick up both for £11.

Aubade Tulipes

Your Lingerie Virgin will make a big splash into dreamy lingerie with this set from Aubade. Aubade is top design house in France and their designs are elegant and much-sought-after. This is the Tulipes range. It includes a moulded cup bra that helps shape the bust line and gives a smooth outline, Aubade adds a pretty lace band and smart detailing on the straps. The matching knicker is an Italian brief. That means it begins with a brief and adds enough lace to provide great coverage. You can find both at Figleaves. The Knicker is £49 and the bra is £48.

Underglam Nightgown

Since it is Valentine's Day, this nightgown is very appropriate. It has an empire waist line, simple bust line, and some white piping trim. It is a great length for the Lingerie Virgin because it fully covers the knickers. You can pick up a full matching set with your choice of knickers, but you won't go wrong with the French Full Undie to match. All of this is at Underglam. The nightgown is $58 and the knickers are $30. Both pieces are cut for a mixture of sizes that are perfect for the petite woman.
