When it comes to lingerie that teases, tempts, and transforms, few pieces make a statement quite like ouvert lingerie. Whether you’ve come across the term while shopping or scrolling for something new, you might be wondering: what is ouvert lingerie and why is it having such a moment?
Let’s dive into the world of open-back, cupless, and crotchless designs, and discover why this bold, beautiful lingerie style is redefining sensuality.
What Does “Ouvert” Mean in Lingerie?
“Ouvert” is a French word meaning open, and in lingerie, it describes pieces designed with seductive cutouts or open panels that are often around the bust or crotch area. These aren’t your everyday pieces; they’re lingerie created to tease, reveal, and celebrate the body.
Ouvert lingerie can take many forms, including:
- Ouvert panties (also known as crotchless panties)
- Open cup bras (or cupless bras)
- Crotchless, open back or cupless teddies and bodysuits
- Ouvert lingerie sets featuring garters, lace, and sheer panels

A Brief History: From Vintage Secret to Modern Power Move
Once reserved for private boudoirs, ouvert lingerie has evolved from risqué novelty to fashion-forward empowerment. French couturiers in the early 20th century began experimenting with sheer lace, open cuts, and bright colors, giving rise to today’s chic crotchless lingerie designs that celebrate confidence, not just seduction.
At Oh La La Cheri, we believe that lingerie is an invitation to feel powerful, playful, and unapologetically sensual. And ouvert lingerie embodies that perfectly.
