Sexy Lingerie

According to Merriam-Webster’s online dictionary, the obsolete meaning of the word “sheer” meant “bright, shining”; its roots came from Old Norse, and Old and Middle English, and their versions of the word shine. 

In the current vernacular, “sheer” means of very thin or transparent texture, or diaphanous, which is more descriptive.  But the obsolete meaning still applies as well, because your natural beauty shines through in sheer lingerie.  Whether it’s a cami, mini dress, nightgown, robe, teddy, babydoll, bustier or body stocking, sheer lingerie will make you look and feel like a queen.

Lingerie is a term for women’s fashion undergarments and comes from the French word ‘lin’ for linen. While the term in the French language applies to all undergarments for either gender, in English it is applied only to those women’s undergarments designed to be visually appealing or erotic.

Lingerie being visually appealing is a recent trend. Up through the first part of the 20th century women selected underwear for three major purposes: to alter their shape, for reasons of hygiene, or for modesty. Women’s underwear was often very large and bulky. As the 20th century progressed, underwear became smaller and form-fitting. In the 60’s lingerie manufacturers such as Frederick’s of Hollywood begin to glamorize lingerie and its sexual appeal began to develop.

The lingerie industry has expanded in the 21st century with designs that double as outerwear. The French refer to this as ‘dessous-dessus’ which basically means innerwear as outerwear.

I can’t believe you guys can sell this sheer nightgown for so little and still make money.  When I told a friend she said “they’ll get you on the shipping.”  What a drag she was.  Anyway, since I’ve taken the leap and ordered from you guys I can see that she was full of it.  I got a premium quality gown in my favorite color for less than thirty bucks and it was shipped for next to nothing.  What’s more, it arrived quickly and looked great right out of the box. 

I now know that I don’t have to be a slave to Victoria’s Secret any longer.  Their over-inflated prices and aggressive employees are a thing of the past.  They can take their so-so service and high prices and see if they work on everyone else.  I for one will no longer be deceived by the misleading ads.  Few things are as disappointing as paying too much for something sub-par.  But now that I have Dream Lingerie I don’t ever have to do that again!
