We may not be able to wear the dreamy, sensual lingerie under your strapless, silk, figure-hugging gown, so you’re probably better off not trying to find sexy underwear that will stay hidden under your dress. Better to opt for the perfect underwear to give you your best figure in your dress, and go wild for that lacy lingerie after you’re done wearing the dress. With this in mind, who says it has to be ivory or white just because it’s bridal? After all, as the old saying goes, something old, something new, something borrowed…

Blue lingerie

That’s right, we’ve decided to look around for some of the sexiest blue lingerie sets for you check out for your wedding night. We figure if you’re going to change into something a little more interesting anyway, you might as well play with a bit of colour. Whether you’re looking for something in a pale, bridal blue or a deep, daring turquoise, or even a dark, elegant French navy shade, we’ve got a set to suit your taste. We love the deep midnight blue set from Stella McCartney if you feel like spoiling yourself. Alternatively, if you're looking for something pastel and bridal, Lise Charmel's delicate lacy set would be the perfect choice for you.

Stella McCarthey Bra €120, Knickers €60

We especially love the detailing on this set, which gives it that elegant bridal look. Speaking of lace detailing, the ivory and blue set from Heidi Klum's Intimates collection has beautiful floral patterns all over the underwear and bright, contrasting bridal-like lace along the bra.

Heidi Klum Intimates Bra €42.95, Knickers €27.95

If you're just looking for something on the lower end of the price scale but still want something blue and bridal, we've got some high street sets to choose from. New Look have deep blue or pale pastel sets from €15, while Accessorize have an unsual two-toned pale blue set for €32. Our favourite high street set has to be the pale sky blue set from Top Shop with ivory lace detailing, perfect for that bridal look.
