A big trend among teens and young adults right now is themed parties. There is an endless list of different themes that people apply to their parties, ranging from neon themed parties, 80s and jungle clothing to “everything but clothes” and lingerie parties.

Lingerie is a particularly popular theme because for boys it’s easy (boxers or a dressing gown are the most common clothing) and for women they can dress as sexy as they want. Typically, lingerie parties are held during a house party, but sometimes clubs or bars organize “lingerie nights” where women are encouraged to wear sexy lingerie and can win prizes.

Women have many options when it comes to dressing up for the holidays in lingerie. Whether you dress conservatively or generously, cute and sexy dresses can be made with a variety of different types of lingerie.

-For women who don’t want to show off their legs, jeans or nice pants are completely acceptable for lingerie parties when paired with a sexy top. A corset, bustier, doll or even a bra can be worn with a simple pair of jeans and heels to create a sexy look.

– Likewise, spandex socks and shorts that cover the back can be worn with a flirtatious lingerie top. This leaves the legs silhouetted rather than exposed.

-Chemises (short lingerie dresses that double as pajamas) are another option if you want to cover your stomach. They can be skin-tight or baggy, sheer, lace, embroidered or solid, and they can be knee-length or shorter. Shirts can also be worn with tights, stockings or nude.

– Camisole tops and doll tops are all conservative alternatives to a regular bra and can often be found in a variety of lacy and skimpy styles. They also provide chest support (whereas shirts generally don’t) and can create a wide neckline depending on the type.

-Bra sets are the most popular options for lingerie parties because most women already own a matching pair of panties and bra. Typically, women opt for shorts, hipsters, or boyshort-style panties instead of thong or thong. You can match the top and bottom or have contrasting pieces (like black and white). Bra sets can be paired with stockings, tights, heels, fishnets and other accessories to create a sexy lingerie outfit.

Dancewear, like what exotic dancers wear for the stage, is also becoming popular at lingerie parties. Dancewear usually consists of ultra mini skirts, open halter or sheath tops, rompers or bikini-style lycra dresses. Dancewear is usually solid with more patterns and colors than lingerie. Dancewear can also be paired with leggings, leg warmers, knee socks, and a variety of different shoes. Sexy, ultra-short dresses are also popular and usually feature cropped sides or backs and low V-necks, giving them a more lingerie feel.

A lingerie party outfit can be purchased quickly for a last-minute invitation, or it can be purchased online or in a store. Places like Victoria’s Secret and Frederick’s of Hollywood have nationwide retail stores that sell lingerie. Online sites like Yandy. offer fast next day shipping on their lingerie if you have a few days before the event.

While most things go to parties in lingerie, the idea is to get dressed, rather than just wearing underwear. Bustiers and stockings are more what lingerie parties are, rather than just the bras and panties you normally wear. Remember that whatever you are wearing, you will not enjoy yourself if you are not comfortable. Pick something that fits you appropriately and covers what you want covered.
