Choosing lingerie as a gift can feel both intimate and special, making it a thoughtful present for your partner or a close friend. Whether you’re celebrating an anniversary, a special occasion, or looking for the perfect bridal gift, luxury lingerie is a wonderful way to show affection and appreciation. However, finding the best lingerie gift for her can be daunting, especially when considering her taste, personal style and—importantly—the perfect fit.
At Luciela we specialise in creating exquisite, elegant lingerie made from eco-friendly materials, blending luxury with sustainability. In this guide we will help you to choose the perfect lingerie gift that balances style, comfort and ethical fashion, ensuring she feels as good about the gift as she does wearing it.
1. CONSIDER HER PERSONAL STYLE
When choosing lingerie as a gift, the most important thing is to ensure it aligns with her personal style and comfort level. Lingerie can be bold, romantic or minimalist, and understanding her taste is key to finding a piece she’ll truly love.
HOW TO DETERMINE HER STYLE:
Look at Her Wardrobe: Her everyday clothing choices are a good place to start. Is she into delicate lace pieces or does she prefer clean lines and minimalist designs? Someone who loves classic, understated looks might appreciate a sophisticated black lace bralette or an elegant sheer mesh robe, while someone with a bolder personality might prefer vivid colors or intricate details.
Pay Attention to Her Current Lingerie Collection: If you can, take note of her existing lingerie. Which styles does she wear most often? Are they bralettes, briefs, or bodysuits? Knowing whether she prefers simplicity over dramatic detailing can guide your decision toward the right design, whether it’s a simple bralette and brief set or a showstopping statement kimono.
Consider Her Comfort Level: Some women prefer functional yet beautiful pieces like a comfortable mesh bralette, while others may enjoy more sensual items like a lace bodysuit. Think about whether she’d prefer something playful or classic.
At Luciela we offer a variety of styles, from elegant bralettes and briefs to chic bodysuits and robes, designed to suit every personality.
2. CHOOSE THE RIGHT SIZE
Size is everything when it comes to lingerie. An ill-fitting piece, no matter how stunning, may miss the mark if it’s uncomfortable or the wrong fit. Getting the sizing right is crucial to ensure her lingerie exudes her full confidence.
HOW TO FIND HER SIZE:
Check Her Current Lingerie: The easiest way to figure out her size is by discreetly checking the size tags of her current (and especially favourite) lingerie. Bras will typically have a combination of a number and letter (like 34B or 36C), while bralettes, briefs and baby dolls are often labeled in S, M, L, or numerical sizes.
Ask a Close Friend: If you’re unsure or unable to check her existing lingerie, you can ask a trusted friend or sister for help. They may have the insight you need, especially if you are choosing a bridal gift.
Opt for Adjustable or Loose-Fitting Pieces: If you’re struggling to find the exact size, you might want to select a lingerie piece with adjustable straps, like a bralette, or a robe, which can offer more flexibility in fit.
3. CONSIDER THE OCCASION
Lingerie makes for an excellent gift on a variety of occasions, and tailoring your choice to the specific event can make the gift even more meaningful.
FOR SPECIAL ANNIVERSARIES OR ROMANTIC GESTURES:
If you’re shopping for your partner to celebrate a romantic occasion, opt for something sensual yet refined. A lace bodysuit or a delicate sheer mesh baby doll can make for an intimate and thoughtful gift. A chic kimono or silk robe is another elegant option that can be worn in various settings, from getting ready in the morning to winding down in the evening, or even styled during the daytime to add a touch of glamour over an outfit.
FOR BRIDAL GIFTS
Lingerie is a classic and timeless bridal gift, either from the groom or the bride’s close friends. For bridal showers, consider a beautiful, sustainable lace set or a soft bralette and brief combination that the bride can wear for special moments. A luxurious robe made from recycled materials can also be a versatile and elegant choice, offering something she can use long after her wedding day.
FOR BIRTHDAYS OR MILESTONES
Lingerie is also perfect for celebrating birthdays or significant life events. A sustainable luxury gift like a lace bralette made from eco-conscious materials shows thoughtfulness and awareness of her values. For milestone occasions, choose a piece that’s both stylish and functional, like a beautifully detailed bodysuit or a sheer floor-length robe.
4. FOCUS ON COMFORT AND SUSTAINABILITY
Luxury doesn’t have to come at the expense of the environment. More than ever, women are looking for sustainable fashion choices, and lingerie is no exception. Choosing eco-conscious lingerie made from responsibly-sourced materials is not only a beautiful gift, but also an investment in the planet.
WHY CHOOSE SUSTAINABLE LINGERIE?
Eco-Friendly Materials: Our lingerie pieces are made from high-quality fabrics including recycled mesh and biodegradable lace, ensuring that you are giving a luxurious gift while minimising the effect on the environment.
Ethical Production: At Luciela, we ensure that all our products are ethically made, prioritising fair labour practices and reducing our carbon footprint.
Long-Lasting Quality: Our sustainable lingerie is designed to be durable and timeless. By investing in quality, eco-conscious lingerie, you are giving her a gift that will last, reducing the need for frequent replacements and promoting mindful consumption.
5. PRESENTATION IS KEY
When it comes to gifting lingerie, the presentation can enhance the overall experience. Wrap the lingerie in beautiful, eco-friendly packaging, like a sustainable gift box or a chic cloth pouch. Many luxury lingerie brands, including ours, offer gift-wrapping options that are just as stylish and sophisticated as the lingerie itself.
Including a thoughtful, handwritten note can also add a personal touch to the gift, whether it’s for your partner or a friend.

Choosing the perfect lingerie gift for her doesn’t have to be overwhelming. By considering her personal style, choosing the right size and selecting a piece tailored to the occasion, you can give a gift that she’ll truly appreciate.
