No Clothes Required—5 New Lingerie Trends Better Than Your Everyday Outfits, According to an Expert

While ready-to-wear trends may come and go, there’s a lot to be said about a great set of lingerie that can live for a lot longer in your wardrobe than any flash-in-the-pan aesthetic. No matter your shape, size or style, the first step in everyones getting ready routine is to build our outfit around a strong foundation, and beautiful, comfortable underwear has the transformative power to help elevate our outfits and boost our confidence, and, even if you’re the only one who’s going to see it, the right pieces are a wise investment when you consider the cost-per-wear.

Given the effort we put into our daily outfit preparation, it’s only right that our underwear should have just as much consideration, and as someone who has a drawer overflowing with threadbare and uncomfortable thongs, my resolution for 2025 is overhauling my lingerie roster. So, where do we begin? I asked an expert and one of the leading names in lingerie, what pieces we should be looking out for over the next 12 months.

The latest trends speak to the evolving lingerie landscape in 2025,” notes Makeda Scille, VP of Design at Hanky Panky, “where comfort, inclusivity, and bold fashion choices are at the forefront. The Hanky Panky team are excited to see how these styles will continue to resonate with customers, and empower them to express their unique style confidently.”

Finally! A movement in underwear that champions comfort and freedom for everyone (a signifier for the end of the cheese wire g-string). And as runway influences trickle down through accessories and interiors, we can expect the same for our underwear drawers too, as the move away from “quiet luxury” towards hyper-femininity continues into 2025.
