5 🔥HOT🔥 Lingerie & Improv Tips

Sun’s out, buns out? Yes, AND! Summer’s here, and there’s no better time for a wardrobe refresh. In case you haven’t noticed, bold colors & strappy tops are IN; denying initiations & sloppy spacework are OUT. Think you can’t spice up your closet without breaking the bank? Think again! But also, don’t think! I’ve got 5 🔥HOT🔥 tips that anyone can use to look hip in the bedroom, and create solid improv onstage, no matter your budget. Let’s get started!
1. Feel Sexy, Be Sexy!
The most important thing about looking so hot in lingerie, is that you’ve gotta feel so hot. Confidence is 🔑🔑🔑! If you’re wearing amazing lingerie (like Freya’s “Gypsy Rose”), but mumble your way through declaring that this scene is taking place in space, nobody’s gonna be turned on, least of all you! Just remember, whether you’re in the bedroom or onstage, your partner, either sex partner or scene partner, wants you to be there, because they think you’re sexy, or funny. I guess your sex partner might also find you funny. So stand & deliver, gurrrl!
2. Find The Right Fit
As any woman out there can tell you, sizing up lingerie ain’t easy! Mass-produced clothes aren’t designed for real bodies, because real bodies are unique, and you can’t manufacture that. Don’t feel a need to identify yourself by your size! You’re not “a 34C.” You’re YOU, and you should wear whatever makes you feel best. Just like you’re not “A Harold gal,” you’re YOU. You can tackle every form out there, with a little practice, and there’s no reason to pigeonhole yourself! If possible, it’s best to go to a store, and try on a range of pieces to get a feel for what fits & what doesn’t. Same goes when looking for a new team to join. Sit in on a few sets, hang out with a few different crews, until you find a fit that makes you feel funny, or sexy, if it’s lingerie. I guess an improv team could also make you feel sexy? Yeah, why not feel sexy when you make art? And if the band’s riding up, it’s probably too big!
3. Embrace Your Curves!
Yas, yas, yaaaas! Models like Ashley Graham are spearheading efforts to expand the lingerie world, and curve-loving plus-size designs are fueling trends all across the board. Strappy tops are a supes sexy way to highlight your curves, at any size! If you’re a budget shopper, swing by HerRoom to find great deals on pieces like Free People’s “Keira” or Oh La La Cherie’s “Bandage.” Fat improv guys, opposite advice. Let’s invest in an XL t-shirt or two! You need to be able to move around onstage, and that tight, too-small top is not helping. Not in a shame way! You know, just…you get it. #YasKwean!
4. Listening!
This is totes crucial. An improvisor without sharp listening skills is like a lingerie drawer without at least one panty from Agent Provocateur: WHAT EVEN ARE YOU DOING. Improv is a team sport; if you want to just get some stuff off your chest, hit an open mic, and come back when you’re ready to embrace a common goal. Improv always works better when we’re open to other people’s ideas, and excited to work together, like a matching violet Scantilly Peek-A-Boo balcony & garter set from Curvy Kate. Pow!
5. Edit!
Sooo many amazing scenes get sooo ruined by going on way too long. If you’ve hit a point where your scene is as funny as it’s gonna get, or you’ve got so many panties you couldn’t possibly wear them all, then edit, hunty! Sweep the stage, and toss out a few of those boring neutral pairs that don’t match your skintone. And if you can’t find neutrals that match your skintone, hop on over to NubianSkin ASAP! That doesn’t really have anything to do with editing, it’s just a cool company. #AndScene!
I hope these tips help you on your sexiness or funniness journey. If you’ve got something I missed, or you want to highlight a great lingerie company or indie team, let me know in the comments! And you’re welcome for not making any Del Close puns. Byeeee!
