The Christmas gift that never fails to make a woman feel special – it's got to be luxurious lingerie says Antonia Edwards

‘For autumn/winter 2011 we are seeing some fabulous strong colours and a real return to red. Whether it’s burgundy, scarlet or the pillar box red of Simone Perele’s Nina, there is a shade to suit everyone – release that inner temptress! Blue lingerie is also prevalent this season with teal, navy and blue mixed in with a bit of black. Whatever colour you choose – make sure it’s bold!’ - Kathryn Rolfe
