The global lingerie market is anticipated to grow during the forecast period owing to the rise in the number of working women in the population and increasing consumer spending on fashionable clothes.

Lingerie refers to women's undergarments such as brassieres, sleep wears, and light robes. Typically, it is constructed from one or more stretchy materials such as silk, nylon, polyester, satin, lace, sheer textiles, and Lycra. Most of these items are made using cotton. Designers are placing more and more emphasis on producing lingerie employing lace, embroidery, expensive materials, beautiful fabrics, and bright colors. The word is frequently chosen to suggest that the clothing is attractive, stylish, or both. Lingerie shopping is a personal choice, and the ideal option will often depend on the budget and the products' accessibility for the most excellent fit and comfort. The fit, material quality, cost, and availability of a wide range of sizes are the primary factors to consider when purchasing the best lingerie.

Support is one of the key reasons women wear bras. The appropriate undergarments improve posture because they are more comfortable all day. Despite making it simple to purchase women's underwear online, many women still need to visit stores due to the challenging size predictions. But women can always use a size chart from a specialty store's lingerie retailer to select the appropriate size.

Lingerie companies are also taking initiatives for women's betterment and health care. For instance, Crystal International has taken a step to advance its community participation programs. The intimate factory of Crystal International in China started a community engagement program to deliver 16,000 pieces of professional lingerie and offer impoverished women in Jiangxi province healthcare knowledge and guidance. Women who receive the bags can scan the QR codes to learn more about women's health and care, including how to prevent breast cancer and other prevalent gynecological problems. Therefore, companies' initiatives for consumers' health care fuel the global market growth of lingerie during the forecast period.
