What lingerie does the designer have in his draw?

One question I get asked quite often is ‘which is your favourite’?

I’m sure everyone opens their undie draw each day, checks to see what’s available, then gravitates towards a ‘favorite’ pair of undies, panties or bra. ?Because there’s something about a favourite pair that reflects the mood you might be in that day.

If you’re off to work and know you have a big day ahead of you, you might just want something comfortable that fits well and you know isn’t going to give you any trouble.

On the other hand, if you’re feeling a bit toey in the morning, feeling relaxed and a bit sexy, you might go for something colorful that has a slightly different cut around the bum or perhaps a thong.

Having a ‘date night’ with your partner or heading out in the hope you might get lucky, then something that gets you in the mood and keeps you there might be called for.

Either way, we all have a few ‘best and fairest’ in the underwear draw and I’m no different.

So my high circulation underwear generally consists of the following-

PinStripe – I love the brief in these so much I actually have 3 pairs in circulation. ?They double as swimwear as well so are pretty handy in the tropics of Australia when in and out of the pool! ?The cut is slightly larger than the Rose so it’s not overly brief and they are underwear you can put on and forget. ?They are the ‘workhorse’ in the underwear draw.

Rose – These are one of our earliest releases and has been replenished twice. ?The panties I have are the original sample which are now over two years old! ?Brief, lightweight and thin, they are always near the top of the list.

Sheer – The Sheer has a look that is actually pretty mainstream with the only hint that it’s anything different being the small hint of pink lace. ?I like these as they are a fairly normal pattern and the sheer fabric means there is plenty of air circulating around the package. ?Good, honest fun undies.

Candy – I love this style. ?The pattern, along with the fabric color and the lace sides makes these stand out every time I look in the draw. ?If you want to surprise your man with some comfy undies that will bring a smile to the dial every time he puts them on, these are the ones!

Frill Panty – I’m not sure why, but this one isn’t as popular as the thong yet I personally believe it’s the most comfortable panty we have made. Ever! ?Without a doubt, this is my favorite as they have a bit of a frill, yet are super comfortable. ?It might just be a personal preference for the full bum pattern, but they are, in my own opinion, the best.

Happy New Year!

Well it’s a new year for almost everyone (Chinese still have a month to go!) and it’s a good time to reflect on what’s happened and how far men’s lingerie has come along.

As we’ve said before, we’re really happy with HommeMystere and the progress we’ve made. ?We’ve seen plenty of new customers, newsletter subscribers and visitors throughout the year and also seen our range of garments expand with increased production runs as our style becomes more popular.

But is lingerie style underwear becoming more acceptable for guys? ?Why is it still an underground kind of movement? ?Strangely enough, a guy would be more likely to talk about sex toys or ‘come out’ than admit he likes to wear frilly panties. ?Now we’re seeing Gay marriage becoming acceptable in various parts of the world, marijuana is legal in some areas of the US and Miley Cyrus gave us twerking!

Beats me why guys wearing lingerie is such a big deal!

No doubt many of our customers will continue to hide their lingerie collections at work or in the back shed, indulging only when they have the house to themselves. ?Their wives/girlfriends will continue to be ignorant, or if they do know, be clear they don’t approve of the practise.

Are we seeing men’s lingerie at the same stage as the gay community endured 30 years ago? ?I hope not but if that’s the case then we’ll continue to push for men’s lingerie to be accepted by the wider community.

Life is too short to have it directed by the Fun Police. ?May as well enjoy it while you can!

Cheers everyone. ?May all your lingerie be Satin – or at least 85% polyamide and 15% spandex!
