These Lingerie Brands Are Killing It on Instagram

If you grew up in the ’90s, chances are very high that your first experience shopping lingerie was through a paper catalog. The models all kind of fit a similar set of criteria, and the definition of sexy always seemed obvious: Less was more, and pushed up was the goal. Safe to say that’s not the way we shop for lingerie in 2018.

Not only do some of the coolest underwear brands today work with models who represent diverse backgrounds, body types, and ages, but sexy is not the only priority. In fact, it’s the brands making us feel comfortable, confident, daring, unique, and seen that ultimately get our attention. And the best place for scoping them out is on social media.

Ahead, take a look at a few of the underwear lines that are killing it on Instagram—not solely through their own channels but through the communities they foster. Be it models that don’t fit any one mold, product offerings that are size-inclusive, or striking imagery that celebrates lingerie styles that delight us—before, or if, they delight anyone else—these are the accounts we love and, ultimately, the ones we shop, too.

1. Kala

In less than a year, Rihanna’s lingerie collection has become the one to watch for its huge size range, trend-forward styles, and sure, that RiRi stamp of approval. Oh, and its runway show won all of New York Fashion Week—no big deal.

5. ThirdLove

ThirdLove features a game-changing half-cup size within its offerings, which caters to more women and ensures a proper fit that you might not find elsewhere. It also doesn’t hurt that its range of everyday bras and underwear go from an AA to H cup and XS to 1X size, respectively.

6. Araks

Araks may be an older favorite, but nonetheless, the brand still lands on the list for its soft silhouettes, amazing colors, and effortless approach to lingerie that prioritizes celebrating the individual who wears it.
