Kiki de Montparnasse:
Top of the line intimates and sexy accessories—tassels, whips, you name it—are all available at this beautifully curated space. Plus, the art on the walls and the books are all on sale, too.
8280 Melrose Avenue (at North Sweetzer Avenue); 323-951-9545.

Frederick's Of Hollywood:
Sure, you may feel like a porn star here, but is that such a bad thing? There's even a lingerie museum in house, so you can check out the history of this famous Hollywood brand and grab some Marilyn Monroe—or Jenna Jameson—inspired unmentionables.
6751 Hollywood Boulevard (at Highland Avenue); 323-957-5953.

Undrest:
Undrest is the ultimate in girly and glam—plus, the in-house line is great. The shop girls are super helpful, which is really comforting if you happen to be in a pinch—or in a bra that pinches you.
1136 Abbott Kinney Boulevard (at Westminster Avenue); 310-314-1180.

Trashy Lingerie:
For pure kitsch, Trashy Lingerie can't be beat. The windows may seem like an homage to bad taste, but if you want something to really make a theatrical statement in the bedroom, this iconic L.A. establishment is a must-visit and an experience you won't soon forget.
402 North La Cienega Boulevard (at Oakwood Avenue); 310-652-4543.

Under G:
While it's all well and good to have sexy undies for when the lights go down, if you need the perfect undergarments for the ultimate romantic-date dress, this is your spot. They are experts here, and you'll appreciate the service. We swear.

10250 Santa Monica Boulevard (at Avenue of the Stars); 310-734-8598.

Panty Raid:
Come here for labels like Elle Macpherson, Hanky Panky, or Calvin Klein. They even have video games in the "BF nook" to distract your dude if he isn't into the sexy lingerie on display.

Bittersweet Butterfly:
The lingerie is heartbreakingly perfect here: Stella McCartney, Mimi Holiday, and Princess Tam Tam, just to name a few. You'll want your honey to pick you up some stellar knickers here, so drop a not-so-subtle hint before V-day.
