Do you regularly wear matching bra & knickers?

I have plain black thongs and black bras. Not part of sets but you can't really tell.

Just wondered what everyone else does.

Would wearing a nice matching set help make me feel sexy again ?

Sometimes but not always

Winterskyfall · 27/01/2025 14:32

No never, I don't like sets. I prefer to not wear a bra whenever it's possible, I hate them.

Zimniy · 27/01/2025 15:24

Nope. Don't even own any matching sets. Sometimes wear stuff that is the same colour but that's more by chance

Yep, get a red bra and red pants and wear white jeans and a white shirt (not see through) with ease Smile

I only found this out 3 years ago! Now all my bras and pants are red

I’m wondering why you want random women describing their underwear?

Ha I thought that too. Maybe it's because I'm old enough to remember the days of perverts ringing a landline and asking what colour knickers you're wearing today.
It makes no difference to you what underwear other women wear, OP. You're an adult, surely you can decide for yourself what will make you 'feel sexy again'.

@LaurieFairyCake i need new underwear so a good time to give it a try, thanks.

Rarely (more by coincidence than design).

I don't wear matching pants and bras - bra tops. I buy the packs of 4-5 pants.

I cannot find a non wired bra that fits. I am a 44B. Lost about 3st and nothing on the bust. You hear people lose half a stone and lose a cup and back size. If I was to lose weight on the bust like that, I would be flat chested.

Never.

I haven't worn matching underwear in years. I'm prone to thrush. Therefore, I always wear plain cotton briefs. Then I have a specific bra style that I find comfortable from M&S, which is a different fabric to the briefs, with lace trim. I do try to at least colour coordinate though.

peachystormy · 28/01/2025 10:38

Nope have probably done this twice in my life don't even think I own a proper set tbh.

Don't own anything matching, but most is black, so I consider it matching!

I carry the almost unbearable burden of keeping the world from total destruction by wearing matching underwear everyday. The reason everything is a bit shit at the moment is because of the lies M&S make about their colours, almond in a bra is not the same almond in knickers, same for every type of beige they do.

BBQPete · 28/01/2025 17:43

Can't say I've ever owned anything that was bought as a matching set.

Like others, I've got some black knickers and black bras, if that counts?
I wear what is comfortable. Always have.

mindutopia · 28/01/2025 17:52

Nope, don’t even own any. 😂 I’ve had a few hospital appointments lately that have involved getting into a hospital gown and I’ve had to actively search for pants without holes.

AuntyMabelandPippin · 28/01/2025 19:43

Always.
