THE SET FOR ALL SKIN
TONES

Flattering for both your figure and your skin tone, this petrol-blue lace bra set is the perfect shade to bring your lingerie drawer into the new season

With pale skin and auburn hair, for me, wearing colour – whether it’s lingerie or clothing – can be a tricky exercise. Too bright and it clashes, too pale and it washes me out. Blue, however, is my go-to choice. Designers are loving it too this season, experimenting with rich and interesting shades like this luxurious petrol hue. Living within the jewel tone family, this bra set will complement olive and dark skin beautifully while creating a stunning contrast for fairer complexions. Featuring a contemporary athletic underband, it strikes the balance of cool femininity, with a high-apex plunge design and a pretty lace finish – plus matching undies to complete the set. So go on, switch up your neutral underwear and embrace the blues.
