Dressing well for summer starts with the proper lingerie
Strapless dresses, racer-back tops and thinner fabrics make it challenging to find the appropriate undergarments for summer. But there truly is a lingerie solution for every style. We caught up with the experts at Diane’s Lingerie in Vancouver to find the perfect underpinnings for all your favourite summer outfits. Click through for some practical yet sexy solutions to all your underwear woes.
A strapless bra is a summer essential, so it’s worth splurging on a good one. This top seller from Marie Jo L’aventure’s Tom collection is smooth and seamless, perfect under any light summer top or dress.

Does your summer wardrobe include sleeveless, racer-back or halter tops? If so, then you’re going to need a bra with adjustable straps. A convertible, like this stunning hot pink bra from Marie Jo, works well with a variety of summer styles.
