IMO, nothing says adulthood and empowerment like having an underwear drawer filled with beautiful pieces of lingerie. Of course, growing a fierce collection takes time, but it doesn’t have to take all of your cash. Contrary to popular belief, there are cheap lingerie sets for women that are so gorgeous that they give high-end boutiques a run for their money.
Quality doesn’t always come with a high price tag, the fact of the matter is, unless you’re buying handmade lingerie or eco-friendly intimates, it shouldn’t cost hundreds of dollars to own a negligee. Furthermore, if you’re buying a lingerie set for a special occasion that you’ll likely never wear again, your wallet will thank you for not making a steep investment. Whether you’re looking for something marital, kinky, lacy, vintage or classic, there’s an affordable lingerie set with your name on it.
To prove it, I've sifted through the virtual racks of Amazon to find the best affordable lingerie in tons of styles and sizes, so that you can stop worrying about how much something cost, and focus on how it makes you feel.
These sets are sexy, fun, unique, but most importantly they are cheap AF, available on Amazon (hello, free two-day shipping!).
1A Lingerie Set That Is Both Sexy And Functional
Mae Women's Deep Plunge Bralette, $18, Amazon | Mae Women's Lace Cheeky Hipster Panty, $18 (3 Pack), Amazon
One way to save money on lingerie is to opt for a set that is as functional as it is sexy. This lacy combo is sold separately, which is great if you are a different size on top than you are on bottom, and both pieces feature a healthy dose of spandex for an extra stretchy, comfy feel you can wear all day and night. The deep-plunge V-neck bra has lightly-lined cotton cups, scalloped trim, and a uniquely gorgeous back that is just as stunning as the front. The all-over lace bottoms have a low-rise waistband that won't pinch or dig into your sides.
2A Lacy Bra And Panty Set In Quirky Colors
LamourLove Lace Bra Set, $14, Amazon
There’s nothing basic about this bra and panty combination: it’s an adorable lingerie set to wear underneath your outfit for those just-in-case occasions. The bralette is fully adjustable with unique side straps that compliment the plush green lace detail and the matching Brazilian panty is adjustable on the sides as well; this is a fun piece that you can easily conform to your body size. The complex lace detail is definitely a nice break from the traditional floral designs and according to Amazon reviewers, the high elastic and soft sheer fabric is quite comfortable and durable.
3A Warm Vintage Set With Plush Velvet
Villy Womens Vintage Lingerie Set, $4-$14, Amazon
Treat yourself to a timeless velvet bra and high waist panty in this alluring lingerie set. This is a piece that definitely says casually sexy without trying and offers a vintage design that’s comfortable enough to sleep in. The bralette softly bunches between the breasts with a slight deep V-neckline and enough stretch to conform to your precise shape. The high-waist panties are ridiculously cute with a lace trim detail on the front and back edges. This set is available in a plush lavish green or a rich gold velvet and since the sizes do run small, it’s a great option for petites and small-breasted women to bask in the smooth warmth of velvet.
4A Seriously Sexy Sheer Teddy In Plus Sizes
Oh La La Cheri Plus Size Viviane Teddy (1X-4X), $39, Amazon
This seriously sexy sheer teddy features cage-inspired strap details, a little bit of lace, and satin waist ribbon. The font offers a super deep V-neck plunge, and the rear is as equally flirty with its "cheeky" rear cut. On a functional note, it features a snap closure cotton gusset and adjustable straps. Size-wise, it goes up to 4X, and it comes in five colors, including classic black, an eye-catching red, and a must-see millennial pink.
5An Erotic Bodysuit With A Racy Mask
Beauty Will Women’s Sexy Lingerie Teddy, $14, Amazon
Sure, this scantily-clad bodysuit is sexy, but it's the playful matching eye mask that makes it a must-have. The high cut leg and deep-V neckline is ultra-flirty and is available in red and black. The satin ties are adjustable on this otherwise one-size fits all piece. Judging from the content reviewers on Amazon, this erotic set is satisfying a wide range of sizes and heights.
6This Designer Bodysuit That You Can Wear Out On The Town
Calvin Klein Women's Linger Bodysuit (S-L), $34-$68, Amazon
This is the type of lingerie you can wear to bed or throw on with a pair of jeans to hit the bars. On the higher end of "cheap," this designer bodysuit is well worth the extra few bucks if you have the means. It features the type of high-quality microfiber and fishnet mesh that you'd expect from a brand like Calvin Klein as well as incredible attention to detail showcased in the abstract oversize floral lace panels with lace trim at leg hem.
7This Sexy Sheer Teddy With Sweet Polkadots
Betsey Johnson Women's Dot Mesh Babydoll (XS-L), $14-$34, Amazon
Walking the line between sexy and sweet, this sheer babydoll dress and thong set offsets its sexy cage-inspired straps and sheer fabric with cute polkadots and a little ruffle trim. It's made from a nylon-spandex blend, has adjustable straps, and features a low back with additional cage detailing.
8A Chemise Halter With A Beautiful Bow
Avid Love’s Women Nightwear Lace Babydoll Strap Chemise Halter, $8-$17, Amazon
With a beautiful babydoll top and matching panty, this lingerie set is an elegant piece that you’ll definitely want to show off. The chemise has thick halter straps that tie in a bow around the neck to match the large satin bow at the center of the subtle chest detail. It bellows at the top of the stomach with a see-through wispy fabric that opens down the mid-line. The panties are a matching thong that offers a little more modesty in the front and back than most; this is a gorgeous option for anyone that wants a classy, slightly revealing set.
9A Modest Lace Slip With Matching Robe
BMaka Women Bridal Lingerie Robe Lace Nightwear Set, $8-$18, Amazon
Though technically marketed as bridal lingerie, this lingerie set has plenty of colors that make it a sexy ensemble for any occasion. The lace slip has a triangle bra with breathtaking floral detail that spills down to the hem with soft solid fabric along the sides and back. The dress is adjustable, fitting sizes small to XXL and it includes a matching G-string. In case you get cold, this set comes with a beautiful lace vintage robe with a convenient drawstring and matching detail on the hem, sleeves, and front. This is a timeless option with soft lace that’s comfortable to sleep in and wear around the house.
10A Mesh Set With Teardrop Garter Belt
Leg Avenue Women’s Vixen Mesh Bra High Waist Garter Belt and G-string, $20-$31, Amazon
Three pieces complete this diaphanous lingerie set; it comes with a mesh bralette that's slightly transparent with small cutouts on each side. This bra has adjustable straps with a hook and eye closure on the back band. The matching G-string includes the same contrasting stitching as the top and both fit sizes small to large. This set wouldn’t be complete without the high waist teardrop garter belt: made with incredibly well-crafted mesh material, it crisscrosses in the front with sexy cutouts and is fully open on the buttocks displaying matching teardrop cutouts on the sides.
