What colour lingerie with pale skin?

I’m a red head and what parts of me that are not covered in freckles is very pale. I struggle with what colour lingerie to get that won’t make me look even paler.
Recommendations and ideas gratefully received.

My OH is pale also, The Forest Green colour as part of lovehoney mindful collection looks great on her skin tone.

My wife’s a red head and has the same concern about colours.
She looks great in dark red or black.

Black works for me. I’m a freckled redhead

Honestly a forest or deep green can do wonders for pale skin! The red hair makes things a little trickier though

Sadly the green is being discontinued which i just bought for my wife looks lovely

It really depends on your shade of red and the colour of your eyes too. I’m a red head too but it’s more mid-tone strawberry blonde than ginger and I have green eyes, fair skin, freckles and almost invisible eyelashes / brows (very annoying!) I’d agree with @Wood_Wow, that green colour is lovely. I tend to favour greens - particularly teal, some pinks, burgundy / wine colours and black. I tend to avoid red, orange and yellow tones in any clothing and white lingerie is also a bit harsh on my skin tone. I find black a bit hit and miss - I like sheer black materials and plain black but tend to avoid anything with black and any other very bright colour (I wouldn’t go for red and black items for example) in the same piece - it’s too contrasting for me.

I would suggest trying a few differnt colours and see what you like - Lovehoney have a good returns policy so, as long as you haven’t taken the tags out, you can return anything you don’t like. Also, have a read of the reviews - I usually mention being a red-head and I have noticed a few other people have done this too. One of the models that lovehoney use is a red-head so it’s worth having a browse to see what suits her.

I tend to always stick safe with black but it can get a bit repetitive. Have tried a baby pink and it just didn’t work and have tried a red corset which I love not so much for the colour but just how it looks.

Which one was the pink one you tried? I have this body and suprisingly it was very flattering on my skin:

I think dark colour underwear would compliment your pale skin.

Super big fan of dark green or a really nice purple color. The right blue is fantastic on redheads too!

My wife is a redheaded, pale skinned Scot.

She looks incredible in red, or white / ivory.

My wife is also very pale. She blends in with the white walls.

She looks great in yellow, red, blue, green, purple.
These can be pale versions or dark versions.

She put pink on today and looked smoking

Hmm purple is always a good colour for red heads and even a nude or blush can add a nice toned down style. Maybe even certain shades of green too

I think the only way is to let the panel decide. Post some pics in the Lingerie Photo Uploads thread and lets see how it goes. There is a neat polling feature that you can build a voting system too. Exciting!

Well now I suppose I’m going to have to treat myself to some new bits. Purple is piquing my interest
