Black Magic Must-Haves

Hooks on lingerie are nothing new. In fact, these little wire fastenings are as synonymous with bras as underwire and straps. But the Hook Up lingerie set from our Contradictions collection has turned this functional detail into a sexy feature in its own right. The gorgeous Hook Up underwire bra is front-fastening so it’s easy to get on… and take off. Wear with the matching briefs and suspenders (also in the Black Magic lingerie sale) for a luxe date night look for less.

Christmas calls for fun, flirty lingerie in festive shades of red. But it can be a slog to track down fashion-led lingerie during Black Friday if your boobs are anything larger than a C. Don’t resign yourself to spending December in something practical just yet. Exuding elegance and femininity, the Viva Luxe bra gives you the best of all worlds. Full-cup comfort and support in sizes up to a J-cup, but with a wonderfully light look thanks to the see-through mesh panel at the neckline.

One of our favourite things about Christmas is that you get to live in your pyjamas 24/7. But with that comes its own dilemma. You want something cosy enough to lounge in, but it also needs to look fabulous in your Christmas photos. Step forward the Velour pyjama set. With its luxurious feel and on-trend style, you won’t be hiding whenever someone takes a family picture. Yet its loose fit is so forgiving, even after you’ve attacked the Quality Street.

If you’re in need of a little motivation for the spinning classes you’ve planned for January, there’s only one thing for it - stylish sportswear. So hit the ground running on your New Year’s workout plan by snapping up the Energy underwired sports bra from our Black Magic lingerie sale. Not only will it fully support you through a high-impact HIIT session, there’s light padding to shape, and underwire for natural lift and separation. You’ll be dying to get to the gym, just to show it off.

You won’t care that you’re on Santa’s naughty list this year when you’ve got this slinky camisole waiting for you under the tree. The Illicit Cami Suspender is brimming with playful features, from the lattice mesh that exudes sexiness to the built-in suspender straps that come complete with feminine bows. Your significant other will feel like they’re unwrapping an exquisitely tied present of their own. And they are - you! They won’t know it cost you next to nothing, either.

Cosy PJs are perfect for Christmas Day, but a festive mini break calls for something much more flirty. The Babylon Luxe chemise is just the ticket. With moody blooms on a muted teal backdrop, it nails this season’s trend for winter florals. But it’s so soft and fluid that it’ll flatter your figure and feel beautifully comfortable to sleep in, too. And, thanks to secret shelf support, it’ll make sure you’re not flashing your buns while tucking into your room service breakfast.

Going away somewhere hot this Christmas? Then let the super-flattering Capri from our bikini sale give you an extra blast of pool-side confidence. Perfect if you love the lighter look of triangle styles but need a little extra support, it has hidden underwire to boost your shape and a plunge to give you maximum cleavage. Full of feminine details like a double frill, it’s available in sizes up to a G-cup. Buy one as a gift to yourself, or let the massive hint-dropping begin.

If your Christmas wish is to look fabulous in a swimsuit, the Black Magic swimwear sale may just be the answer to your prayers. That’s because it contains the Starboard control swimsuit and it’s. Just. So. Flattering! Featuring a wide red band to nip you in and create that gorgeous hourglass waist, there’s an integral bra shelf and moulded cups to give you amazing lift and support. And with the tummy control panel to hold you in, who needs a post-Christmas diet?

Baby, it’s cold outside! But that doesn’t mean you can’t be hiding something sexy underneath all those winter layers. These Allure stockings prove that it doesn’t have to cost the earth to nail that retro pin-up look. With their stunning lacy red tops, they’ll add a touch of Christmas sparkle to your everyday attire. And if you choose a sexy suspender belt from our Black Magic sale to complete the look, they’ll stay perfectly in place, too

Whether kept strictly for the boudoir or worn to be seen, the sexy basque is everywhere at the moment. But if you think you couldn’t wear the daring trend yourself, this stunning Allure basque will make you think again. With underwire to support, the power mesh at the sides sculpts your silhouette, while the red lace panels look flattering and festive. Wear in the bedroom with the suspenders attached, or remove for a basque that’ll turn every head at your Christmas party.

There’s nothing sexier than a glimpse of lacy lingerie beneath a blazer or a satin shirt dress. But if you usually find bralettes a bit too flimsy, the Rebel longline bra in our lingerie sale is going to rock your world. Although it feels soft and lightweight, the underwire will keep everything lifted and there’s extra support from the wide underband. It feels so secure you may be tempted to wear it on its own with high-waisted shorts for a glamorous Christmas girl’s night out.
