Celebrities and Lingerie: A Long-Lasting Love Story

Celebrities have always been at the forefront of setting trends. They are unafraid to shock the public with their looks and their outfits are always larger than life. 

There are many popular culture references that tie the world of celebrity to the world of lingerie. Throughout the decades, celebs have wowed the public with their scandalous looks.

Let’s have a brief look at how celebrities have pushed lingerie trends out of the bedroom and onto the streets.

Lil Kim

Lil’ Kim is one of the most influential female rappers of all time. Her bold fashion choices of the 90s have become referential moments in contemporary pop culture.

In the realm of celebrity and lingerie, Lil’ Kim walked so that Lady Gaga and Miley Cyrus could run. She’s sported jewelled underwear, mesh bodysuits, and even sparkly nipple covers.

If you want to re-create Lil’ Kim’s most iconic look, you’re in luck, we have a pair of glittery nipple covers in the prints Sandy Rose and White Snake.

Lady Gaga

This blog post would be incomplete without an honourable mention to Lady Gaga. The popstar is renowned for making a statement with her outfits and she’s not shy when it comes to flaunting her lingerie.

If anyone has religiously embraced the lingerie as outerwear trend, it has most definitely been Lady Gaga. The Grammy-awarded singer has stepped onto the stage, the runway, and the streets, in some of the most stunning lingerie pieces.  

For a Souszy rendition of Lady Gaga’s look, we’ve chosen the Lover Underwire Bra and Saturday Mesh G-Sting in Black.

Kourtney Kardashian  

The Kardashian’s are one of the most influential celebrity families of all times. Each sister has their own sense of style and the oldest sibling, Kourtney Kardashian, is no stranger to the world of lingerie.

Kourtney has made herself known as the Queen of slip dresses. This effortlessly chic look can be worn out for dinner with friends or for a romantic date night with your partner. 

If this is an outfit you’re willing to try, take a look at our Scarlett Camisole Dress and Lucia Camisole Dress from Wanderluxe. 

Rihanna 

Rihanna is best known for her music, but also for revolutionizing the lingerie scene. This celebrity superstar loves lingerie so much that she even came out with her own brand.

Lingerie shows are no longer about achieving unrealistic body standards, they’re about owning your body and feeling empowered whilst doing so. However, long before Savage X Fenty was a global success, Rihanna was hitting the town in her lingerie looks.

If we had the pleasure of dressing Rihanna in head-to-toe Souszy, we would opt for the Lilly Robe, the Molly Thong, and the Molly Underwire Bra in Blue. 

Lingerie as outwear is no longer a look that only celebrities can rock. Nowadays, you can easily see a girl out for drinks in her lingerie bodysuit and blazer. Slip dresses have dominated the clothing racks of our most beloved fashion brands and bralettes are endlessly combined with everyday looks.
