Lingerie party
A lingerie party is often the theme of a bridal shower. Guests are invited to shower the bride-to-be with slinky lingerie to wear to begin her new married life. In keeping with the lingerie theme, what could be more perfect than an invitation designed like lacy or frilly lingerie?
Lingerie-Shaped Invitation
Create an invitation with a pretty and slinky negligee as the focal point. Choose a cream color or a pink color for the background of the invitation. The negligee will be a slightly transparent image that fills in the majority of the space over the background. Perhaps the image of the negligee will be hanging on a pretty hanger. Place the text over the top of the image of the negligee in a font that complements the style of the lingerie.
Another invitation idea is to use a completely white background. Find a picture of a woman sitting in a chair, wearing white nylons, a white garter on one leg, and high heels. The top of the picture is cropped and faded so that the only thing visible is the legs of the woman as she sits with her legs crossed demurely. Place the invitation text in the white space around the picture of the woman's legs.
Size Guide
Include a card with the invitation that details the sizes and measurements of the guest of honor. Draw a modest picture on the card of an attractive woman standing in her underwear. Place arrows pointing to the underwear and the bra and place the correct sizes next to the arrows. Also include the guest of honor's overall clothing size. This will help reduce the number of returns that the guest of honor needs to make after the party.
Invitation Details
Announce the lingerie party at the top of the invitation in a large font. The next line should tell who the party is for and why it is being held. Include the date, time, place and hostess information on the next lines. Also include any specific gift instructions or registry information so that the guest knows what to shop for. Request an RSVP and place contact information, if desired.
