If September’s Paris Fashion Week was anything to go by, daring underwear is set to be a huge trend in 2020. Models including Bella Hadid took to the catwalk in their lingerie, with black basques, sheer body stockings and lace body underwear taking centre stage.
Designer brands Mugler and fashion industry favourite Ann Demeulemeester both showcased similar jaw-dropping styles - with equally jaw-dropping price tags to match. But luckily, there is a way to get in on the lacy, racy lingerie body trend, without having to remortgage your house in the process.
Pour Moi’s basques and bodies prove you don’t need a Kardashian-sized bank balance to feel every inch the supermodel. Our sexiest lingerie style features the same deep plunges, sexy straps and waist-cinching belts seen on the catwalk, letting you try the hottest looks in fashion for less. And because it’s Pour Moi, there’ll be extra supportive features like adjustable straps and underwiring, making them as comfortable as they are stylish.
And now that basques and bodies have left the lingerie drawer to walk the catwalk, we thought it was the perfect time to show you how to steal the designer look for yourself - with a little help from Pour Moi.
Choose your favourite, then style it however you like. If you don’t want to wear your basque lingerie with heels and see-through kimonos like they did on the runway, you could dress a luxe lace body down with khakis and a statement jacket, like @alikasavannaxo. Or make like @vicccx_ and match our luxurious Suspense body with jeans and heels for the ultimate evening look.
Belted swimwear was one of the hottest looks on the beach this summer, and now we’re seeing the same waist-cinching style cross-over into lingerie. Lacy bodies and basque underwear styled with straps around the waist were the number one lingerie look at Paris Fashion Week, seen at both Mugler and Etam. We couldn’t be happier about it here at Pour Moi, because there’s nothing like a belt to shape your mid-section and make the most of your curves.

Steal the style: To get the silhouette-boosting belted look for yourself, try the Opulence basque with suspenders. Not only does it have the must-have waist strap, it also features mesh inserts at the sides and a gorgeous cross-dyed lace, two lingerie features which also featured heavily on the catwalk this autumn.
Crossed straps worn with black mesh body lingerie went together like peaches and cream on the runways. In fact a thong version of the risqué style was famously showcased by Bella Hadid for Mugler. And, when it came to straps, more was definitely the merrier in Paris. Lingerie designers went to great lengths to put the sexy feature on any conceivable body part, with straps seen on waists, shoulders, thighs, calves and even ankles!
Steal the style: Match the Contradictions Strapped mesh body with any one of the Strapped lingerie sets for a seriously sultry high-fashion look.
One of the lingerie stars of the show at Paris this year were black mesh and lace bodies with plunging V-necklines, so deep they practically grazed the model’s belly button. The scintillating style was paired with strappy heels as well as a range of extravagant robes, from huge, sheer kimonos to voluminous lace wraps.
Steal the style: The All Tied Up body is Pour Moi’s take on the daring V-neck lace body trend. Ours comes with a ring-neck plus two ties at the front so you can keep the deep V as open or closed as you please. It’s finished with a thong shape back, so pairing it with a stunning wrap as seen on the Parisian catwalk can keep you feeling fashionable - as well as less exposed.
It was mostly darker hues when it came to lingerie styles at Paris Fashion Week. But one shade that did get a look-in was rose gold, and it’s easy to see why. The antique pink hue, seen in corsets, basques and bodies, has to be the most flattering shade of nude ever invented. So, if you’re getting married and it matches your skin tone, rose gold could be the perfect colour for your bridal basque - invisible under your dress by day but first-night worthy by night.
Steal the style: Our Rebel lace underwire bodysuit can help you work the muted pink lingerie trend for yourself. Beautiful and feminine thanks to delicate lace and mesh, it also has removable pads and a fabulous plunge shape to make the most of your assets.
Whether kept under wraps or worn to be seen, our supportive basques and bodies always make a stunning style statement. Shop the whole collection now.
