When you need a new bra or to restock your underwear drawer, you probably head to the same store you have visited for years. And it’s probably Victoria’s Secret. That mental note you made about checking out that cute lingerie you spied in the window of your favorite clothing store is completely forgotten. You might want to grab a pen and paper and write these stores down because they have great lingerie lines worth remembering. A lot of your favorite clothing stores sell bras and panties, and if you like the clothes, you’re likely going to love the lingerie, too.

Remember these 12 stores the next time you’re lingerie shopping:
1. H&M
Not all H&M stores have a lingerie section, so you may not realize they carry it. (You can buy online without a store with an intimate department near you.) They stock bras, panties, shapewear, bodysuits, corsets, and some plus-size merchandise. The prices are as good as the rest of the store.
2. Anthroplogie
If you love that vintage bohemian thing that Anthropologie does so well, you’ll love its intimate section because it has the same vibe. They stock bras, panties, slips, bodysuits, and bridal lingerie.
3. Urban Outfitters
It’s easy to get distracted by the clothes and trinkets in Urban Outfitters, but don’t bypass the intimates section. They have 5 for $25 undies, bodysuits, lots of loungewear, and numerous wire-free bra options.
4. Gap
How could we forget about the GapBody collection? The collection is filled with sleepwear, versatile bras, and panties that are great lingerie drawer basics. If you’re looking for wireless bras or sports bras, make sure you check these out. For those interested in the most comfortable and supportive options without the wires, looking into wireless bra reviews can be incredibly helpful. Reviews can provide insights into fit, comfort, and durability, guiding you to make the best choice for your needs.
5. Eloquii
Eloquii carries shapewear and coordinating bras and underwear. Many bra styles go up to an F cup and a 42 band, but you can also find some 44 bands and G and H cups.
6. Topshop
You think about Topshop when you want trendy clothes but they have a good selection of lingerie. They have 3 for $20 panties with styles that range from flirty lace pairs to cutesy cartoon underwear. Think Toy Story briefs and pizza bras.
7. Forever 21
Whether you’re looking for loungewear, shapewear, bras and panties, babydolls, or sleepwear, Forever 21 has you covered. The best part? You can pick up a lot of things for less than $20.
8. Nasty Gal
Nasty Gal sells a lot of bra tops that look like lingerie. Still, they also have a dedicated lingerie section filled with cheeky bras, panties, bodysuits, bustiers, harnesses, and lots of unique nipple pasties.
9. ASOS
What can’t you find on ASOS? They carry sleepwear and lingerie in straight and different sizes. If you have large boobs, they also have a section dedicated to those ladies who are DD+.
10. Free People
Bras? Check. Underwear? Check. Robes and sleepwear? Check. Slips and bodysuits? Check. Free People‘s intimates section covers all bases. There is something for everyone with styles ranging from minimalist ’90s shapes to flirty lace styles.
11. Torrid
You can fill up your lingerie drawer with Torrid items. They have bras and panties, shapewear, and lingerie including corsets and babydolls. Bras come in a range of styles including bandeaus and bralettes. Basic bras go up to a G cup.
12. American Apparel
You know American Apparel sells bodysuits and bandeaus but also has a range of bras, with many wire-free styles, underwear including thongs in every rainbow color, and high-waisted panties. They also carry a few baby dolls and chemises.
