The lingerie gift guide

Everything you need to know to get it right.

If you’re here, you probably want to give someone something beautiful — and you’re not quite sure where to start. That’s normal. Lingerie has a reputation for being a tricky gift. Size, style, whether she’ll actually love it. This guide is here so you don’t have to guess.

How do I know her size?

The most common question. There are a few ways to find out without asking her directly.

Check her underwear. Most pieces have the size on the inside label. If you have access to her drawer, this is the most reliable way.

Look at her clothing size. A size S in a top usually corresponds to a size S in lingerie. It’s not exact, but it’s a good starting point.

Ask someone close to her. A good friend or her sister will likely know.

If you don’t know her size — choose an adjustable piece. Several Sartori Atelier pieces have adjustable straps and closures, designed with this in mind.

Pieces made for gifting

These pieces have something in common: you don’t need to know her exact size to get it right. They have either adjustable straps or have a very stretchy fabric and lace strap.

Choose with her in mind

The best lingerie gift isn’t the most expensive or the most daring. It’s the one that feels like her.

Look at what she already wears. Does she go for neutrals, blacks? Or does she love colour? Is her style subtle and delicate, or does she like to make a statement? Her wardrobe tells you more than you think.

If you’re unsure between lace and mesh, think about her in general. Lace is more classic and sensual. Mesh is more modern and lightweight. Both are beautiful. Neither is wrong.

And if you’re still not sure, black always works.

Returns & exchanges

Bralettes can be exchanged if the size isn’t right. Just get in touch within 14 days of receiving your order — unworn, with the tag still on.

Panties cannot be returned or exchanged for hygiene reasons.

Not sure about the size? The gift card is the risk-free option.
