25 Lingerie Brands That Definitely Need to Be on Your Radar
Once upon a time, a little-known brand known for its push-up bras and pink-striped walls ruled the lingerie world. It wasn't inclusive, it wasn't diverse, but it was all we had. Lingerie brands have come a long, long way. While that specific brand (you know the one) has made some strides, it's been toppled as the ruler of lingerie land. Now, a slew of lingerie brands have come forth, giving us more inclusive, more diverse, and more comfortable lingerie to shop. Because, no—not everyone has a beige skin tone, nor does everyone want to wear a spaghetti noodle for a thong or fit into a 34B cup.
We've scoured the internet and tested a ton of bras, undies, bustiers—you name it. The verdict is in: lingerie is better—waaay better—and more body-positive than before. There really is a style, color, and size for every person and occasion. Whether you're looking for something comfortable, playful, or inexpensive, these are the best lingerie brands to shop now.
The best, most comfortable lingerie brands
ThirdLove
The DTC brand has made waves for good reason. Using measurements from millions of real, authentic people, ThirdLove creates inclusive bras and bralettes in more than 80 sizes, including half-cups. Say goodbye to spilling, rubbing, and adjusting—with ThirdLove, you can find your true, perfect fit at an affordable price.
Our pick:
The bra that started it all is made from airy memory foam that cushions the contours of the body in A-I sizes. While other T-shirt bras gap or pucker, this one stays seamless, no matter what you wear.
Cuup
Fan of the simple, "I'm wearing underwear so minimalist it makes it even more sexy," look? Get Cuup. Its lingerie is about as minimalist as you can get for silhouettes that are equally stunning and supportive in A-H sizes. Even fabrics you think wouldn't support you—like sheer mesh and soft modal—get the job done and feel amazing.
Our pick:
Light but sturdy, simple but elegant, the Plunge bra really has it all. Paired with a matching set of highwaist undies, and you’re sure to feel like a buxom starlet while you wear.

Our pick:
