Would You Let Your Partner Choose Your Underwear?

As lingerie sales soared in lockdown, two couples took on a challenge – with surprising results

‘They were hideous. I couldn’t stop laughing!’

Itzel Amaya, 33, a student and barmaid, has been married to construction worker Dylan Bennett, 39, for nine years. They live in Bristol.

The black set that Dylan chose was too lacy, and the knickers too high-waisted for my liking. I think my hips are big, and a high waist emphasises that. I would wear it for Dylan though, if he asked nicely.

Normally, I’m practical with my underwear. I go for plain colours, and I cycle a lot so I want bras that I can wear under T-shirts. I have some sexy sets for date nights – most are red because Dylan likes red.
