2025 Lingerie Trends: Bold, Glamorous and Sustainable

2025 Lingerie Trends: Bold, Bold and Sustainable
The world of lingerie is evolving, and 2025 is all about balance -- sensual yet wearable, bold yet sustainable. Whether you're a fan of rich jewel tones, intricate embellishments, or the ever-growing underwear-outerwear movement, this year has something for every lingerie enthusiast. Here's a look at the trends shaping the industry this year.

1. Underwear as outerwear: The power movement continues. Lingerie has long been confined to the bedroom, and we see this trend continuing with no signs of stopping! From structured corsets paired with jeans to bralettes peeking out from oversized blazers, underwear as outerwear will continue to be the dominant trend of 2025. Celebrities and designers are championing this look, proving that a well-made bustier or slip dress can be just as powerful as any tailored suit.
Major celebrities like Kristen Stewart, Beyoncé, Sydney Sweeney, and Hailey Bieber have embraced the lingerie outerwear trend over the past year, showcasing its versatility and appeal. Whether it’s layering a lacy tank top over a chic shirt or a sheer bodysuit with high-waisted trousers, lingerie-inspired dressing is here to stay.

2. Sheer Strike: Welcome to the Age of the Naked Dress. By the way... hold on to your pearls, because it's the Age of the Naked Dress, people! Daring yet ethereal, sheer lingerie dresses are making their way onto the streets. Thanks to the "naked dress" trend taking over red carpets, sheer lace and tulle slip dresses are now the everyday statement piece. Layer them over bodysuits or high-waisted briefs, or under tailored pieces for a high-fashion, editorial look. It's a seductive, bold, and confidently commanding trend.

3. Red berries and jewel tones: Forget beige – this year is all about colour confidence. Berry and deep magenta are particularly popular at the moment, but so are other deep, rich shades: think deep raspberry, sapphire blue, emerald green and amethyst purple. These sumptuous shades flatter every skin tone and add a touch of opulence to lingerie collections. These rich hues are being embraced in both minimalist silk ensembles and intricately embroidered lace designs, making it easy to incorporate bold colours into your lingerie wardrobe.

4. Animal Prints: 2025 brings a drastic update to lingerie, led by snake prints. In honor of the Chinese zodiac’s Year of the Snake, designers are embracing motifs inspired by reptiles and classics like cheetah and leopard prints. These patterns bring a sense of mysterious power to a lingerie world that usually embraces subtlety over big, bold moments. Some brands are even turning the trend into a high-fashion statement by mixing animal prints with luxe fabrics like silk and velvet. Expect to see bold combinations with metallic elements or even embroideries that mimic the scales of a snake, offering a uniquely tactile experience.

5. Bold embellishments: Minimalism is taking a backseat this year, as lingerie is adorned with 3D floral embroidery, tassels and fringes, exposed metal accessories, feathers, and ruffles galore. Designers are pushing the boundaries of what you can do with bras and lingerie by adding unexpected embellishments—think feather-embellished bralettes, shiny metal-chain garter belts, and corsets adorned with large rosettes. Fringe elements add movement and tactile play, transforming lingerie from a mere garment into an experience. These details aren’t just for aesthetic purposes; they’re also a new sensory experience to wearing lingerie. Whether worn alone or layered with outerwear, these ornate styles make lingerie feel like haute couture.

6. Sustainability: Consumers are demanding more from their underwear – not just in terms of style, but also ethics. More sustainable fabrics like organic cotton, Peace Silk and recycled polyester are becoming the norm rather than the exception, reducing waste and minimizing environmental impact.

Expect to see collections that are not only beautiful, but also designed to last—pieces that stand the test of time in both durability and style. Plus, advances in fabric technology are making sustainable lingerie softer, stronger, and even more luxurious than previously possible. The move toward sustainability is proving that indulgence and responsibility can coexist, allowing lingerie enthusiasts to invest in pieces that feel as good as they look.

Final Thoughts: The lingerie trends of 2025 will be all about pushing the boundaries and testing the limits of what lingerie is and where it can be worn. Whether you’re embracing the boldness of animal print, rocking a sheer evening gown, or investing in ethically made pieces, this year’s trends celebrate both self-expression and responsibility.
