Where to buy vintage Lingerie

Posted on May 20, 2012 by rebecca

There’s something about vintage lingerie that speaks to us. Not overtly tackily sexy, vintage lingerie is tasteful and also extremely attractive, providing confidence and pleasure for both the wearer and anyone lucky enough to see it.

The online sphere provides for those of us with a love of vintage lingerie in all its elegance and style. Though conventional high street shops have a limited selection, the Internet is your playground when looking for this sort of sexy, stylish underwear. Sites such as forbiddenapple.co.uk provide some extremely attractive and classic styles of lingerie.

Sexy Classics

From girdles and bullet bra’s, to suspenders and hosiery, there’s a wide range on offer to suit all shapes and sizes and compliment any woman’s figure. Unlike the underwear of today, which is often modelled on stick thin, size minus zero models, vintage style lingerie is designed to enhance a curvier figure and accentuate a woman’s famine hour glass shape.

Modern styles of skimpy underwear can often be very unflattering and uncomfortable, our vintage styles provide more structure and support where it is needed making the wearer feel curvaceous, attractive and confident – of course they’re also extremely comfortable too.

There’s nothing as attractive as real confidence and if you know you look great from the inside out, then you’re sure to exude such delights to all those around you. Our underwear is aimed to create a sexy, flattering feel that will compliment your shape.

Aesthetic Appeal

We’ve all heard the saying “less is more” and maybe this is where today’s modern, revealing, underwear designs stem from. At Forbidden Apple, we prefer the saying “leave something to the imagination”, our lingerie may cover more skin than today’s modern underwear designs but we believe that this not only adds comfort but also sex appeal, class and sophistication.

In terms of design and aesthetics we owe so much to the 1950s and 1960s, and not just in clothing terms. From the cars we drive to the furniture, this period was one of amazing style and attraction. This of course translates into the modern day and is perhaps why we love going back to the look our mothers and grandmothers enjoyed so much. They say fashion is temporary and style is permanent and this in our opinions is reflected in the era we style our clothing on.

The beautiful and stylish appeal of these older styles is one of the golden days of Hollywood and many of the style icons of the 20th century. Why wouldn’t you want the appeal of the likes of Marilyn, or Betty?

They say being cool, or being sexy is a state of mind and we wouldn’t disagree. It’s just a lot easier when you feel completely comfortable with yourself and look it too.
