Auckland underwear brand Videris know this, placing colour therapy - also known as chromotherapy - at the heart of its design process. “Colours have the power to evoke specific emotions and feelings. They can make us feel confident, bold, sexy, or calm, relaxed, and serene,” says the brand. “Choosing the colour of our lingerie can be a moment of self-reflection and intention.”

Tonality is also of importance for local lingerie label Ohen. A just-released addition to its core range, Sable, is a deep and subtly sophisticated brown shade with warm undertones said to flatter every skin tone.

“Sable is more than just a new colour; it’s a celebration of nuance,” explains Lu Blade-Bittle, Ohen co-founder. “It’s about introducing a colour with rich depth, while preserving the femininity that defines Ohen.”

Even if an expression of femininity doesn’t align with the intention you’re setting for the day, the below sets, bras and underwear should make you feel incredible - you already are.
