Sexy Basics: Down Undies

Filed under: Clothing, Lingerie, Shoes — Sabrina Doolittle @ 1:27 pm

Lingerie retailer Down Undies has a great line of underwear basics for your SL wardrobe. These undies have some nifty attributes for your assets, as well. First of all, they’re all tintable - they come in basic white but you can tint them any colour you like for any occassion or to go with any outfit. Woot!

Second of all, they come in a nice and slightly unusual range - all the patterns are available in a choice of full or demi cup bras, plus bustier, strapless and cupless options. The knickers, too, are similarly flexible, coming in a really itty-bitty thong, a standard thong, a more full front and back brief and a crotchless option. (I appreciate any designer who’s willing to at least give me the option of ass coverage.)

This is the tintable Sheer set with the (obviously) itty-bitty knickers and demi-cup bra option:

I think its very Calvin Klein, in a sort of sexy-but-functional way. I prefer this Rose Lace pattern, though, because I’m a frilly girly-girl when it comes to lingerie, and I like the full-cup bra shape a lot:

Why I think my virtual rack needs virtual support, I have no idea, but at least I’ve got it if I want it. Also note the adorable Princess bedroom slippers, which come in 8 colours. You can tint your undies to match the slippers of your choice!

Stockings and gloves are optional extras, and like their underwear friends, you can tint them to your preference. They’ll be released in-store soon, but until then you can IM creator JW Russell to get a pair. I love these sexy Rio Sandals, too, which also come in 8 colour choices including black. At $100L, the Birkensahi’s brand shoes by Sahirah Hauptmann in this store are an absolute bargain.

Whatever combination of lingerie you choose, you’re unlikely to be disappointed. These items are made with meticulous care and attention to detail, and have some of the best fit and cut of any lingerie I’ve tried. You can spend less, but you probably can’t find better for this kind of flexible basics.

...but if you're looking for an item in an old entry or a store that has moved, please IM the designer if you can't find it. We probably can't find it either!
