Lingerie is so much more than it used to be. It goes beyond single-use garters and edible bras. Today’s best lingerie brands are fun, stylish, and require no occasion—although certain sets always make a special Valentine’s Day gift for her or for yourself. Whether you’re looking for something bold and daring or classic and timeless, there’s a style out there for every version of you.

“Shopping for lingerie should be easy,” says Yesenia Torres, VP of design and creative director at CUUP. “You should always buy what makes you feel best in your skin.” And modern lingerie brands prove that you can find bras for large busts that are also meant to be seen, and comfy thongs that can be worn confidently under your favorite matching sweatsuits.

Whatever your preferences—both in and out of the boudoir—nothing can make you feel sexy and confident like good lingerie. Here, shop our 21 favorite lingerie brands to shop now.
