Dearest gentle reader, by now, you’ve likely caught up on the latest season of Bridgerton (and may already be yearning for more love, lust, and romance in your life because of it). And while we can’t promise you a passionate romp with a lover like Luke or the Viscount, what we can offer is a dresser drawer brimming with luxurious, Bridgerton-inspired lingerie and sexy corsets fit for the diamond of the season.
Bridgerton’s Impact On Underwear Trends
Since Bridgerton first aired on Netflix in the final days of 2020, the regency-era show has been closely tied to today’s trends – especially within the world of fashion with the (still rising) regencycore aesthetic.
In short, regencycore is all things romantic and vintage, with a heavy dose of soft pastels that nod to the historic period. As for undergarments that feel regal enough to be considered “Bridgerton lingerie,” timeless corsets, delicate lace, and smooth silk are expected (albeit with the comfort that comes with the modern age).
Dreamy Lingerie Inspired By Your Favorite Characters
Each season centers on a different leading lady and their unique love story. Whether you’re more of a daydreaming Sophie or a bold Kate, here are lingerie staples inspired by the beloved characters.
Daphne: Powder Blue & Soft Chemises
Daphne is the Bridgerton that truly started it all – and throughout her iconic season of romance, innocence lost, and surprising duplicitousness with her beau Simon, she all but invented ultra-soft shades of baby blue.
She surely wouldn’t sleep in anything but the luxurious ivory satin, the Satin Sleep Chemise, Fashion Bralette, and Flutter Tanga being her favorites. Though underneath it all, she’d likely reveal her delicate, complex nature by wearing the Sheer Seduction Underwire Bra in her signature Touch The Sky Blue color.
Kate: Sultry Purple & Satin Ribbons
Kate defined season two with her bold independence (especially considering the era) and fiery nature, and in turn, her personal color palette was filled with rich, sultry hues, like deep purple, vibrant teal, and the like. As for her modern day vibe, Kate’s lingerie would likely be just as empowered and statement-making.
Undoubtedly, the Viscountess would keep a few Signature Lace® Original Rise Thongs in her drawer, especially in Navy Blue and Love Potion Purple. As for those dreamy nights with her true love, she might just be wearing a black Peek-a-Boo Lace Bralette and Bikini set underneath her outfit, adorned with romantic satin ribbons that beg to be undone.
Penelope: Rich Emerald Green & Sexy Corsets
Throughout season three, Penelope is overcome by secrets, mystery, and a heavy dose of yearning for her longtime childhood crush, Colin Bridgerton. As is with all of her Featherington family members, she’s often shown in gowns that are butter yellow and soft green, though once she taps into her more daring side, her inner seductress is defined by deep, jewel-toned emerald. Undoubtedly, her most intimate wardrobe pieces would be similarly dark and defiant.
While lounging around and penning her next gossip-filled letter, Penelope would reach for a soft lingerie set – namely, the Signature Lace® Classic Cami and French Briefs in the Spruce Green colorway. Come nighttime, she’d turn up the heat (and mischief) with the Lexi Wood X Hanky Panky Shannon Bustier, which gives sexy Bridgerton corset vibes.
Sophie: Pastel Florals & Classic White Lace
At the start of season four, Sophie is first spotted by her would-be husband at a glamorous masquerade ball. She looks angelic in white tones and glistening pearls, though leaving behind her glove would be the first clue into her true Cinderella story. Sophie is pure and a daydreamer, and fittingly, her character is often surrounded by soft pastels and cloud-like colors (when she isn’t serving, that is).
When perusing through Sophie’s lingerie drawer, you’d find a whole lot of feminine florals and laidback Signature Lace® Boyshorts for casual days at home – the Floriculture Print being a perfect match for her personal style. For a dose of elegance inspired by her heavenly masquerade gown, she might just slip into the Victoria Lace Chemise with the matching white lace G-String, a perfect balance of sweetness and sultriness.
A Regencycore Lingerie Upgrade
No matter your personal style (or favorite Bridgerton character), Hanky Panky has you covered with lust-worthy lingerie that balances comfort and ease with a luxuriousness that’s all things regencycore.
