I've talked about the 'Lipstick Indicator' as an indication of the downturn in the economy, but now it's lingerie. Apparently women are still willing to pay for luxury items like lingerie to make them feel good in the current economic climate.
Sales of vintage lingerie is in demand with lacy lingerie, corsets and the fashion knicker along with the T'-shirt bra. Corsets are in demand as they lift your bust and hold your tummy in. Shapewear is also selling well as women follow the celebrity trend of looking svelte. Hosiery holds up well in winter as the much loved patterned tights allow women to keep warm while looking chic and modern.
