Posted in: Chemise
Chemises are among the most flexible of sexy lingerie. A chemise can be worn as a beautiful and soft undergarment, or dressed up with a matching jacket and skirt to serve as an elegant top. Of course, the chemise has also found a home in the bedroom, offering style and comfort as well as sex appeal. Chemises have been in use as undergarments since the Middle Ages, but only in recent times have they morphed into the sexy lingerie items that they are today.
Historically, chemises were worn as undergarments to protect outerwear items from absorbing sweat and body oils. In the days before easy laundering, the chemise was the only item that was washed on a regular basis. At that time, chemises often featured sleeves and were made of simple, durable fabrics that could be easily washed. Naturally, the rich wore chemises of higher quality and beauty, but the chemise was not designed to be seen in public. Both men and women wore these functional chemises, which served much the same purpose as today’s men’s undershirts.
As laundry became easier to manage, the garment was no longer needed as a protective layer and it fell out of favor in the early 20th century. However, a new fashionable and provocative version was soon developed, and the chemise has remained popular ever since as a piece of sexy lingerie.
The chemises of today have much in common with both the babydoll and the camisole. Chemises are generally short, tight and sleeveless, offering full yet minimal coverage under revealing dresses and skirt outfits. A camisole is generally shirt-length, ending at the waist. A separate slip must be paired with a camisole to provide full coverage. A chemise, on the other hand, extends to the top of the thigh. Therefore, a slip is rarely required.
Babydolls are usually of very similar style and fabric to chemises. However, the babydoll skirt is usually flared, while the chemise is fitted and skimming. Both garments offer excellent sleepwear alternatives, but the unique cut of the chemise makes it a terrific multi-purpose garment, moving seamlessly from undergarment to nightgown. Babydolls also tend to feature numerous decorative elements such as ribbons, bows and fur trim. Most chemises are more streamlined, drawing beauty from simplicity rather than frills.
Many chemises of today are decidedly naughty lingerie pieces. Plunging necklines and fitted construction offer great sex appeal. Popular fabrics include lace and silk. Consider a daring chemise made of see-through material, or a more demure piece in a dark opaque. Many chemises feature cutouts and other design elements that are designed to show off certain areas of the body.
Chemises are truly multi-purpose, a rare feat in the specialized world of sexy lingerie. A great chemise offers the beauty and simplicity of a camisole, the sleepwear function of a babydoll and the body enhancing features of a teddy or bodysuit. The soft, sensuous fabrics and beautiful cuts provide a rich and luxurious feel. The wide variety of design and color choices ensures that no matter what image you wish to project, there is certain to be a chemise that will meet your needs.

For many couples, fantasy role-playing is a great way to spice things up in the bedroom, and fantasy lingerie can add realism to the play. If your bedroom routine has become, well, routine, then consider whether fantasy lingerie is right for you. Role-playing can run the gamut from mild to wild. You may be uncomfortable broaching the subject with your partner, however. Here a few tips for bringing fantasy role-playing into a more conservative relationship.
Start a dialogue
When the two of you are relaxed and away from the bedroom, casually broach the subject of fantasies. Find out what sorts of things interest him. Be willing to share your own fantasies as well, but keep them tame and low-key to start out. Suggest acting out one of the more mild suggestions from each person’s list. Remember, at this point the fantasies will probably be very tame, requiring no special clothing or props.
Implement ideas
In your next bedroom session, slowly guide things toward acting out one of the fantasies you discussed. Or if you are more daring, simply take control of the situation. Go slowly and allow either partner to stop the fantasy play at any time. Let your partner know how much you are enjoying the role-playing, but remain sensitive to his feelings on the situation.
Talk about it
At a calm and relaxed time a few days later, bring up the trial role-playing session. Let him know what you thought, and ask for his feelings as well. If things went well, then do not be surprised to find that he is ready to go further with the role-playing. If he does not suggest it first, make the suggestion that the two of you try something a bit wilder. Again, find the comfort zone for both of you and do not try to rush things too far, too fast.
Repeat the process
Slowly adding new elements of role-playing into your bedroom activities and discussing them afterwards is a great way to bring your sex life to a whole new level. Eventually, the two of you will be in synch and ready to try something a bit wilder. At this point, you will be ready to experiment with fantasy lingerie.
Fantasy lingerie truly enhances a role-playing experience. Whether your fantasies include schoolgirl attire or nurse uniforms or the ever-popular French maid, simply stepping into the costume can make it easier to play the role. You may feel silly in the outfit at first, but allowing yourself to think, act and speak to match the outfit will help to banish those feelings. Of course, your partner’s reaction will also help you to feel more confident.
When purchasing fantasy lingerie, remember that the fit is supposed to be tight and exaggerated. Consider buying a size smaller than your normal size to truly enhance the costume’s appeal. Alternately, look for adjustable costume pieces that can be exactly fitted to your particular proportions. The costume will be over-the-top and theatrical, which is exactly what you want! Do not be shy about the fit, but revel in the feel of your own body in the costume.

As a plus size woman, I know how aggravating it can be when a great outfit simply doesn’t look good on my body type. Practically every plus size woman goes through this sooner or later. The answer to the problem could be to artificially change your shape.
There are a host of ways you can go about changing your body shape. You can work out, diet, take pills or even make an appointment to go under the knife with your local plastic surgeon. For most of us, these options either require time we don’t have, money we don’t have or too much risk. Fortunately, there is a relatively cheap way to change your shape for a period of time that comes with no risk – the undergarments known as plus size shapers.

Corsetry has come a long way since the Dark Ages. It’s not just the lack of scientific knowledge that made those times dark. Those were also dark days for womens underwear. Back then, corsetry was extremely constrictive, even potentially dangerous.
It’s no surprise that the word corset is derived from “corp,” the French word for body. After all, corsets are all about molding a woman’s body.
In the past, corsets had an extreme effect on a woman’s shape. For example, “tightlacing” was once a popular and common trend. Tightlacing is the process of wearing an extremely tightly-laced corset for long periods of time. The goal is to actually achieve a permanent reduction in waist size.
Lucky for us, womens underwear has shifted focus to comfort as well as seduction. Sometimes, though, you’ll still see tightlacing in Gothic-style sexy womens underwear.
The times changed and so did corsets. Now corsets are considered sexy underwear. They’re often worn more for sex appeal than for figure-forming purposes. In fact, many of today’s corsets don’t have any effect on the appearance of the wearer’s figure. They belong purely to the family of sexy womens underwear.
We women haven’t completely abandoned the figure-forming corset. Corsets are still popular womens underwear, several hundred years after their invention, because they can give you an hour glass figure. A full bust, trim waist, and curvaceous hips have long been considered the ideal body shape for a woman.
We feel sexy when we know that we look great. We’re not always 100% satisfied with the “assets” natured endowed us with. The right womens sexy underwear has the power to change that. Sexy underwear can be subtly functional. Your special someone will only know that you look fantastic. They’ll never suspect the transforming powers of the corset!
Part of the evolution of corsets has come in the form of color and styles. No more plain Jane white cotton and whale boning. Now you can find corsets in every color under the sun. Plus, they came in all your favorite fabric. If you’re in the market for the soft luxurious feel of womens silk underwear, there are corsets ready to please. You might not immediately think of corsets when you’re shopping for womens silk underwear. But you’ll be pleasantly surprised at the number of options available. It’s a fun departure from the normal satin slips.
Corsets are a step up from your typical womens sexy underwear. They’re not as easy to come across as nighties and babydolls. That is, you won’t readily find them on the racks of your local department store. Corsets are ideal for special occasions because your significant other will be completely surprised.
Corsets are also an important part of the world of fetish wear. In the nineties, fetish wear became a popular way to indulge in fantasies and walk on the wild side. The waist cincher in particular is a top choice in fetish wear. As the name suggests, it severely cinches the waist for an exaggerated hour glass effect.
Women have come a long way since the oppression of the 1300s. And the corset has come along with us. No longer restrictive like women’s lives in the Dark Ages, corsets now reflect a woman’s ability to express her sexuality.
