National Lingerie Day 101
Lingerie is more than lace and satin—it’s confidence, sensuality, and self-love. National Lingerie Day celebrates exactly that–with bras, corsets, and other fashionable undergarments, of course.
National Lingerie Day is a reminder that lingerie isn’t just for special occasions—it’s for every day, every mood, and every version of you. Whether you prefer barely-there lace, silky slip dresses, or cozy lounge bras and underwear, this is a day to indulge in pieces that make you feel empowered, elegant, and effortlessly chic.
When Is National Lingerie Day?
Mark your calendars—National Lingerie Day is celebrated every year on April 25. Think of it as your annual excuse (as if you need one) to refresh your undergarment collection and elevate your everyday essentials. It’s a day dedicated to celebrating the confidence-boosting magic of intimates, whether you’re slipping into sexy lingerie and intimates or embracing the art of relaxing in luxurious loungewear.
History of National Lingerie Day
This holiday is a celebration of the evolution and significance of intimate apparel in fashion and personal expression. The term "lingerie," derived from the French word for underwear, has transformed over the centuries from functional undergarments to symbols of empowerment and style. In the early 20th century, designers like Lady Duff-Gordon pioneered the shift from restrictive corsets to more liberating designs, paving the way for the modern bra and underwear we know today. This day not only honors the craftsmanship behind these garments but also encourages individuals to embrace their confidence and femininity.
National Lingerie Day first gained recognition in the early 2010s, likely sparked by the lingerie industry as a way to celebrate intimate apparel and its role in fashion and self-expression. As the holiday spread, it became an opportunity for lingerie brands to highlight the craftsmanship behind every bra and underwear design while encouraging conversations around confidence and body positivity. Today, National Lingerie Day continues to evolve, serving as both a marketing moment and a cultural celebration of style, empowerment, and individuality.
