Finding the perfect lingerie for date night can be hard, especially if you’re struggling to find one that fits your specific body type. With so many images in the media of women with the same body, it gets discouraging trying to strip down.
The good news is, many companies are finally catering to the different body types of women; and here at NYGal, we’re all about diversity. That’s why we’re providing tips on how to find the best lingerie for every body type.
Hourglass
Do you have a defined waist that is balanced with your bust line? Then you have an hourglass shape. You need lingerie that emphasizes that sexy waist. Try a set with a garter belt. This Flock Dot Garter Set by Savage X Fenty will accentuate your features and drive your date wild.
Rihanna had us all shook when she included diverse models in her fashion show. She proved that you can be sexy even when you’re curvy, petite, and even pregnant. We definitely support her new lingerie brand that caters to every woman.
Petite
Are you short and compact? Think Ariana Grande. Petite body types look best in lingerie slips. Slips elongate your neck and torso. Pick something above the knee, like Adore Me’s Primrose slip so you don’t get lost in the fabric. If you really want to spice things up, choose a sheer one that shows more skin.

Pear
Thick thighs and big butts define the pear shape. If you’re in this category, people already notice these features. So why not draw attention to your other assets? Try a lingerie set with a padded bra or bustier to bring eyes to your bust line. Fashion Nova’s lingerie is perfect for a pear shaped body type. Their Confidently Sexy 2 Piece Set includes a lace padded bra with matching panties. Show off that bust and prove that your girls are just as sexy as your bottom.
Rectangle
Rectangle body types include long legs and broad shoulders. You need a high waisted panty to draw less attention to your torso and more to those gorgeous legs. Yandy’s Sheer Illusion Bra Set features mesh cups and thick shoulder straps. This design makes your shoulders appear more narrow. Flaunt your elongated body in this sexy set.
Inverted Triangle
If you’re smaller in the waist and more broad in the shoulders and bust, then you have an inverted triangle body type. You look amazing in v-necks and belts look awesome on you. When it comes to your lingerie though, try to make your waist stand out. A flare-bottomed babydoll works best for this. This Flare Babydoll dress from Express will make your hips look bigger while also showing off your neckline. The best thing is that this dress is satin, making it comfortable and sexy.
Apple
Do you have curves all over? Then you have an apple body type. This type gets a bad rep, but we at NYGal know that all bodies are beautiful. Curvy chicks matter too! If you’re in this category, try a bodysuit with a v-neck. This will give you a chance to show off the best parts of your body. Ashley Graham is very influential in making curvy girls feel sexy. Her lingerie line proves exactly that. This underwired bodysuit supports those curves and smooths the torso.
Whatever body type you have, own it and love the skin you’re in. Every NYGal is beautiful and it’s time to embrace our bodies.
