Granny Lingerie

The Stella McCartney Lingerie Line Plays It Safe

The latest Stella McCartney lingerie line indicates a new direction for lingerie—and it’s not what you’d expect. Rather than super sultry, body-baring pieces that will add more sizzle to the bedroom than you can handle, McCartney’s line-up includes a rather safe collection of delicates.

With names that refer to women caught in “cheeky situations,” the Stella McCartney lingerie collection includes pieces like the ‘Eva Scampering’ chemise and ‘Ines Sneaking’ crepe bra, which are in general pretty, satin-y styles that cover a lot more than they show and which The Pipeline describes as “more Granny than sexy.”

Stella McCartney's latest lingerie line made up of modest and less revealing pieces indicates a growing trend towards modest lingerie designs.
Elevated Lingerie
