French lingerie is the epitome of sexy underpinnings. Overtly sexy but never vulgar, French lingerie guarantees the undivided attention of anyone who gets a peek. Follow these buying tips and indulge in French lingerie that's sure to make you say, "Ooh la la."

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Measure yourself and buy your correct sizes. Nothing is sexy about lingerie that doesn't fit properly. Agent Provocateur's website (see Resources) provides simple, clear instructions for how to take your own bra measurement.

  2. Step 2

    Take into account your body's shape. If you have a boyish figure, buy padded bras and frilly French panties to give yourself some curves. Those with a bit of tummy bulge or a thick middle look best in baby doll nighties.

  3. Step 3

    Choose classy, intricately detailed lingerie for an authentically French look. French lingerie designers employ rich, sensuous fabrics and naughty details. Check out the hit Las Vegas cabaret Crazy Horse Paris (see Resources) for some sexy ideas.

  4. Step 4

    Go full-on French for the evening. There's no reason to stop at lingerie-spritz on some French perfume and play up your pout with Chanel lipstick (see Resources) to get yourself in the mood. Don some fluffy marabou slippers to enhance the sex-kitten effect.

  5. Step 5

    Care for your French lingerie the right way. Wash lingerie either by hand in the sink or in a mesh lingerie bag on your washing machine's "delicate" cycle. Use detergent specifically formulated for lingerie and other delicate fabrics. Lay your lingerie flat to dry or line-dry it away from the sun and direct heat.
