Christmas Gifting FAQs: Luxury Lingerie Guide
Fleur’s Christmas Gifting FAQs: Everything You Need to Know About Gifting Luxury Lingerie
There’s something magical about the act of giving, that quiet moment when you choose something meaningful for someone you love. As a designer and founder, I’ve always believed that lingerie is one of the most intimate, emotional gifts you can give. It’s not just about what she wears; it’s about how it makes her feel.
Each year, I’m asked similar questions about gifting lingerie at Christmas, from finding the right size to making sure it arrives beautifully wrapped. So I’ve gathered everything you need to know, all in one place, to help you give a gift that feels as beautiful to give as it does to receive.
1. How do I choose the right size when buying lingerie as a gift?
Choosing lingerie is about thoughtfulness, not perfection.
If you can, discreetly check the size of a bra or nightwear piece she already loves, look at the label for guidance. If you’re unsure, our Size Guide on the Fleur of England website will walk you through every step.
For bras, a balcony or boudoir style is a timeless, flattering choice for most shapes. If you’re gifting nightwear, silk camisoles and slips offer an effortless fit that feels luxurious and relaxed.
2. What if I don’t know her size at all?
This is one of the questions I’m asked most often, and it’s easier than you think.
If you don’t know her exact size, choose something that feels indulgent but doesn’t require a perfect fit. Our Fleur du Jour collection is one of my favourite gifting ideas; it moves beautifully between day and night, offering effortless elegance. The signature camisole paired with our classic brief makes a thoughtful gift that’s both sensual and wearable.
I also recommend anything that comes in Small, Medium, or Large sizing, such as silk slips or robes; they’re easy to gift, universally flattering, and always well-received.
3. What are the best luxury lingerie gifts this Christmas?
This year, my edit of must-have luxury lingerie gifts features pieces from our most-loved fashion collections:
Onyx — Timeless, confident, and endlessly elegant.
Simone — In rich, deep red, this collection feels bold and feminine, perfect for the festive season.
Fleur Du Jour — For those who love understated luxury, this collection transitions effortlessly from day to night. I especially adore the long slips and camisoles, which make stunning gifts that can be styled beyond the bedroom.
And of course, a matching lingerie set, bra, thong, and suspender remains the quintessential luxury lingerie gift. Shop our sets here.
4. Can I exchange or return a gift after Christmas?
Yes, of course. Every Fleur of England purchase includes a 30-day return policy, and for Christmas, we offer extended returns starting Sunday, 16th November, through to 5th January.
That means you can shop early with complete peace of mind, and if something isn’t quite right, our customer care team will be happy to help with an exchange or return in the New Year.
5. Do you offer discreet packaging?
Always. Discretion and presentation are at the heart of what we do.
Every order is beautifully wrapped in signature ivory tissue and delivered discreetly in a plain outer box with no mention of lingerie on the label.
For orders over £250, your pieces will arrive inside our luxury Fleur of England gift box, a reusable keepsake.
For orders under £250, your items will be wrapped in signature tissue, placed in a beautiful branded envelope, and delivered in a discreet padded envelope.
Either way, every order is an experience, understated, elegant, and deeply personal.
6. How can I make my gift feel extra special?
It’s the little touches that matter most. You can add a handwritten note at checkout, and we’ll include it carefully inside the box.
We also include a complimentary lingerie bag, perfect for travel or storage. If you’d like to elevate your gift further, I love suggesting a matching silk camisole and lace lingerie set, it feels thoughtful, complete, and beautifully layered.
7. How long will delivery take during Christmas?
We take great care to ensure every order arrives beautifully and on time.
UK Standard Delivery: Order by 1pm GMT, Friday 19th December for guaranteed Christmas delivery.
Express delivery options are also available at checkout. Each order is hand-packed in our Bristol studio to ensure your gift arrives in perfect condition.
8. How do I care for luxury lingerie so it lasts beautifully?
Luxury lingerie is like silk art; it deserves gentle care.
Always hand-wash your pieces in cool water using a delicate detergent (our Clothes Doctor x Fleur of England collaboration is perfect). Avoid wringing or tumble drying. Instead, press gently with a towel and hang to dry. With care, your lingerie will remain exquisite for years.
A Final Thought from Me
When I design each collection, I imagine the moment it’s unwrapped, the soft rustle of tissue, the ribbon untied, the quiet joy of something truly special.
This Christmas, give her a gift that celebrates craftsmanship, emotion, and the art of slowing down.
Discover a gift that feels as beautiful to give as it does to wear.
