Embroidered lingerie is where craftsmanship meets sensuality. Delicate, daring, and utterly decadent, it offers a romantic alternative to lace or minimalist mesh. Whether you’re looking to elevate your collection or indulge in a lingerie set that feels like wearable art, embroidered styles are a chic and sultry choice.
What Is Embroidered Lingerie?
Embroidered lingerie refers to undergarments adorned with stitched thread patterns, often floral, abstract, or baroque motifs. These patterns bring depth and dimension to sheer fabrics like mesh or tulle. Unlike lace, which is woven into a pattern, embroidery is stitched on top, allowing for bolder detailing and contrast.
Common Types of Embroidered Lingerie:
- Floral embroidered lingerie: Romantic blooms on sheer mesh
- Embroidered mesh lingerie: Delicate and transparent with stitched details
- Embroidered lingerie set: Matching bra and panty (or garter) sets with cohesive motifs
How Comfortable Is Embroidered Lingerie?
Whether embroidered lingerie is comfortable depends on the quality of embroidery and fabric. Modern embroidered lingerie, especially from Oh La La Cheri, is thoughtfully crafted for wearability. Our styles are designed with softness in mind, ensuring no stiff threads or scratchy overlays. With delicate mesh bases, strategic lining, and flexible fits, embroidered pieces can feel just as comfortable as your everyday favorites.
Look for:
- Soft mesh lining
- Flexible cups with stretch
- Adjustable straps and bands for a tailored fit
How to Wash Embroidered Lingerie
With a little extra care, your embroidered lingerie can stay just as beautiful as the day you bought it. Because embroidery is delicate, washing and storing your lingerie properly ensures longevity and keeps those details intact.
To keep your embroidered lingerie looking fresh and fabulous:
- Hand wash with cold water and mild detergent
- Never wring or twist embroidered sections
- Lay flat to dry on a towel or hang dry in the shade
- Store flat to prevent pulling on stitches
How to Style Embroidered Lingerie
Embroidered lingerie doesn’t need to be hidden. It’s made to be seen. Whether you’re dressing up for yourself or styling a sultry outfit, these pieces add texture and intrigue to your look.
Our favorite ways to wear it:
- Under a sheer blouse or mesh top
- With matching embroidered garter belts and stockings
- Paired with satin robes for a boudoir-ready look

Embroidered Lingerie vs. Lace Lingerie
Both embroidery and lace are beloved for their beauty, but they offer different textures and visual effects. Embroidery sits on the surface, creating a dimensional look that’s structured and bold. Lace is usually softer, woven, and stretches more easily across the body.
| Feature | Embroidered Mesh | Traditional Lace |
| Texture | Dimensional, stitched | Flat, woven |
| Sheerness | High | Varies |
| Comfort | Soft lining, gentle support | Often soft, less textured |
| Visual Appeal | Highly detailed, ornate | Classic and delicate |
