According to Chinese customs and legends, red symbolises good fortune and good luck. Hence, wearing red is traditionally known to ward off bad luck for the year ahead. But if you aren’t too enthusiastic about dressing in red this year, perhaps consider donning a pair of red lingerie underneath.
Even if you aren’t superstitious, who wouldn’t want to boost your luck by wearing red underwear for as many days as you can throughout the year?
To help you out, we’ve rounded up some flirty red lingerie sets to shop right now. Just in time for Valentine’s Day as you celebrate love with a little fun.

This gorgeous scallop-trimmed bra and thong set from British lingerie brand Fleur of England features bespoke floral embroidery. The triangle cup bra comes with a criss cross strap design at the back, rendering it perfect to be worn under dresses with said straps.
Not only does it look feminine and exquisite, this lingerie set also looks comfortable and soft on the skin as well. The matching thong is crafted from silk-blend satin for a lustrous, smooth touch, while the soft-cup bra is made from soft sheer tulle.
Featuring a comfortable stretch fit and made from smooth nylon-polyester blend, this red spaghetti strap bra and high-waisted briefs set will feel like a second skin. We love the sporty, seamless look this set has. Not to mention, high-waisted briefs (or it’s other less-than-flattering moniker – granny panties) can be one of the most comfortable undergarments of choice.
They’re great for being worn under tight dresses and skirts, as they tend to smoothen out any unevenness. Last but not least? These stretchable intimates will be there for you when you’ve eaten too much during your reunion dinner and feel a vicious bloat coming.
Featuring a low V-neck and exquisite floral-embroidered lace, La Perla’s soft bralette comes with a matching thong that embodies all the sensual femininity you’d want in a lingerie. Another pro of wearing a soft bra: It doesn’t leave those underwire indentations on your skin or poke and pinch at your underboob all day long. Style this under a dress that’s not too tight or one that’s crafted from a sturdy fabric, as you’ll want to avoid having the lacey texture peeking through underneath.
When we first laid eyes on this Versace stunner, we immediately knew we had to include it in our round-up. Showcasing the brand’s iconic Greca border and Medusa logo plaque front and centre on the elasticated band, this plunging V-neck triangle bralette set looks regal and ornate.
The thong has a streamlined v-silhouette, giving you a seamless finish underneath tight skirts. If you’re feeling a little more bold, you can also opt to wear the bralette by itself as a cropped top. Disclaimer: we do not recommend for you to try this at your reunion dinner.
Crafted with an extended front tab in the centre to reduce underwire pressure, this bra comes with an anti-slip sling that bolsters and lifts the busts up for a flattering cleavage. Underlining Wacoal’s expertise in creating comfortable and high quality bras, this lace bra will minimise the discomfort that usually accompanies an underwire bra. The matching burgundy bikini-cut panty also features a scallop trim and a dainty crystal adorning the centre front.
From local lingerie brand Perk by Kate, this burgundy bralette is designed with a scallop lace detailing and an underwire construction for added support. It also has removable paddings too, which guarantees more coverage. To add, the straps are convertible into three ways: straight spaghetti straps, halter or cross-back, so you can probably adjust it to fit any dress you’re planning to wear to bai nian. The coordinating bikini it comes with features a pretty and intricate lace design.
A best seller from Riri’s lingerie brand, Savage X Fenty, this t-shirt bra and thong are rendered all over in a cute linking hearts print in “goji berry red”. Made from uber-soft microfiber and seamless cups, the bra was designed specially to look great under a t-shirt. Sporting the brand’s X logo in rose gold, both the bra and thong have a classic, flattering silhouette that’s taken to the next level with the brand’s edginess.
We all need a versatile strapless bra that fits well and has good support. This lightly lined number from La Senza in bright fire engine red has the brand’s “stay-put technology” so that you won’t have to keep adjusting your bra throughout the day as it slips down. It also comes with removable straps which allow you to attach it in any way that fits your dress. Both the bra and the seamless brazillian panty are made from soft and smooth microfibre.
Made from incredibly fine and intricately embroidered floral patterns, this red lace bodysuit has a sexy open back and its edges are trimmed with scalloped hems. The capped sleeve design and plunging decolletage looks flattering and we think it would be fitting to wear this underneath a cheongsam or a sheath dress. It could also look interesting worn as a top, with a fitted tube top underneath and tucked into a sleek pair of trousers.
Adorning lavender straps that contrast with the sweet coral-hued superfine lace, this bra and high-waisted brief set is completely on trend with its bright, vibrant colours and soft pastels. The bra comes with underwired cups, adjustable spaghetti straps and an elastic support band. The high-waisted briefs, which as we’ve said before, is an absolute gem for combat any bloating days, has stretch mesh inserts that ensures a comfortable fit.
