As it goes with anything in fashion, tastes are quickly evolving due to new players, new trends, and new influences such as current “it” girls. Tastes and attitudes towards Lingerie are quickly changing especially from younger audiences. Instead of focusing on fit and support when shopping for bras, many consumers are focused on feeling comfortable and sexy. An important new trend for many are undergarments that can double as beach wear, night wear, lounge wear, and comfortable weekend wear. This is certainly the case with the rise in bodysuits and loose-fitting bralettes making a comeback in a huge way.

Here are a few brands doing cool things to keep an eye on:
