How to Get a Forties Lingerie Look
The forties was a time of real lady-like elegance for women, so it's no surprise the look is making a comeback in fashion and lingerie. You can look for authentic vintage pieces, shop for modern versions of the same styles, or even re-interpret classic lingerie often aimed at the older customer in your own unique way. If you're aiming for a sexy yet classy forties-style retro look, here are some ways you could achieve it.
Bra
For an authentic retro look you could seek out a genuine vintage bullet bra. In the forties and fifties, underwired bras had not yet arrived on the scene. The popular bust shape was a more conical, pointed outline, compared to today's more rounded silhouette, and this was achieved with a bullet bra. If you don't fancy trawling vintage shops there are many classic style bras available that give a retro look. For example, the Doreen by Triumph is the world's best selling bra. Instead of underwiring it uses structured cups for support, giving a more gentle take on the bullet bra shape. Alternatively you could go for a long-line or midi bra, either underwired or non-wired.
Corselet
A corselet, sometimes called a bra slip, is a piece of controlwear that includes a bra section but continues down into a slip or girdle. They were very popular in the forties and fifties but fell out of fashion for a spell. Now however they're back in vogue, thanks in part to Gok Wan and his vintage style shapewear range. They look ever so sexy on curvy girls, supporting your bust, holding in your waist and smoothing all over for an hourglass outline. Many also come with detachable suspenders. Find a vintage piece or go for a modern interpretation. You'll find modern pieces do a much better job when it comes to shape, support and fit.
Girdle
If you don't fancy an all-in-one corselet, try a girdle with your bra. This is a half-slip, like a shapewear skirt, designed to slim your tummy, hips and thighs. Once old fashioned, they're enjoying something of a revival thanks to the forties comeback. The most famous makes are Playtex and Miss Mary of Sweden, but you will also find girdles from more contemporary lingerie brands and retro lingerie boutiques.
Suspenders
If your girdle or corselet doesn't come with suspenders attached, or if you prefer not to wear a piece of controlwear, you'll need a suspender belt to go with your briefs. This is something that goes around your mid section and sits on your hips, with fastening hanging down to attach your suspenders to. With the advent of tights, suspenders belts and stockings have fallen out of favour but your partner will most definitely appreciate the effort!
Stockings
And what goes on the end of your suspenders? Stockings of course! Yes, they're more of a hassle than tights, but when you see the overall effect you'll surely agree they're worth it. For an authentic forties look go for seamed stockings, where the seams run down the middle of the backs of your legs. Whether you choose black or neutral coloured stockings you'll get a sexy look with a true flavour of the forties.
Don't forget hair and make-up!
Red lipstick is essential for a forties look – and so glamorous! Try hair rolls or elegant finger waves for authentic retro hair that's ever so elegant.
