G-string or boy-cut briefs; Spanx or corset; push-up or strapless; stockings or garter belts: the possibilities are endless. That’s why shopping for underwear can sometimes be a major pain in the derrière, but there’s nothing dignified about wearing smalls that have seen better days. We hit the racks and scoped out the best lingerie stores in Singapore from petite frames to the double Ds that’ll help you bring your undergarment game to a whole new level. Say hello to your new pretty underthings that will make you look good and feel great.

Wacoal
The Japanese know how it’s done
Wacoal is undisputedly one of the top dogs for women’s bras in Singapore and it’s all thanks to one solid reason: Japanese engineering.

You’d be hard pressed to find a bra that doesn’t fit you to a T here as qualified consultants will insist on it. Styles range from wired or unwired, seamless, push up, cleavage boosting and cami.
