About Lingerie Dresses

Bridging the gap between lingerie and eveningwear, lingerie dresses are seductive, flowing and effortlessly glamorous. From soft chemises to figure-hugging mini dresses, they offer a little more coverage while still turning heads, perfect for setting the mood in style.

What Are Lingerie Dresses?

Lingerie dresses are intimate dresses designed for the bedroom, including chemises, slip dresses and short, body-skimming mini styles. They combine the elegance of a dress with the sensuality of lingerie, offering a flattering, alluring look that's easy to wear.

Flattering and Versatile

Offering a touch more coverage than briefs or a teddy, lingerie dresses are a wonderful choice if you love a softer, more flowing look. They drape gorgeously over the figure, flatter a wide range of shapes, and feel as luxurious to wear as they look.

Styles to Explore

Discover loose, romantic chemises in satin or lace, sheer mesh slip dresses, and bold, close-fitting mini dresses. Details like lace trims, plunging necklines, open backs and side splits let you choose a style from subtly elegant to daringly seductive.

Fit and Care

Check the size guide for the most flattering fit, considering whether you'd like a loose or close-fitting style. Delicate fabrics like satin and lace are best hand-washed or washed in a lingerie bag on a gentle cycle, then dried flat away from direct heat.
