Should I Be Buying Black Or Red Colour Lingerie For The Boudoir In 2010

By Gemma Bentley

When it comes to the colour of lingerie should it be red or black? The question arises because a recent new survey in 2010 has challenged the original belief that red is the preferred sexiest colour for lingerie.

Over half of British men say red lingerie is their least favourite colour lingerie and they really prefer to see their partner in dark vampire black. Yet nearly two thirds of women think their men would like to see them in red lingerie.

The new 2010 study has challenged the myth about men, women and their lingerie colour choice. Red was always thought to be the sexiest lingerie colour, but it is no longer the case in 2010 according to the British males.

Racy red lingerie often chosen as a valentines day boudoir gift, is now shown to be a big turn off by British males according to the 2010 study. More than half the men questioned put red lingerie as their least favourite colour, with nearly 20% giving pink the no-no, and 11% saying thumbs down to flesh tone underwear.

This goes against 60% of women's idea that they bought red lingerie to impress their men because they liked it, not so black is favorite followed by white lingerie. This of course could be a blessing in disguise, white or black lingerie would make a far more practical purchase.

A fashionable white or black lingerie garment could be worn on far more occasions as underwear or fashionable overwear. For example you could pair a corset with leggings and go out clubbing or to a party or with jeans, trousers or skirt for a more casual night out. A lacy boudoir body could be worn with a floaty skirt or show it off underneath an oversized top, but they could equally be worn in the boudoir.

So lingerie is sexy and gorgeous, as outerwear to go to a party or clubbing, or in the boudoir for your partner, it can be worn at anytime, not just in the bedroom.
