tink’s pretty things is really all about Alison Graham and the professional, flexible and quality fitting service she provides. Alison is an established and trusted provider of lingerie and quality, personalised fitting services. She can also advise on beautiful, affordable and suitable lingerie in Chichester, West Sussex for all women – from teenagers to women of all ages and shapes.

Women come to see Alison for a number of reasons including:

• To own a complete everyday lingerie collection –  fitted exactly for your shape and style.
• For Designer Lingerie – for those who love the best and contemporary names in lingerie.
• For Professional Fitting –  fitting can resolve a number of complaints including back-pain, breast pain, skin irritation and soreness.
• To emphasise or reduce breast size
• To smooth a silhouette or disguise problem areas.

Often Alison sees women accompanied by their mothers or close friends for:

• Bridal Trousseaus – a wonderful gift from mother to daughter
• Bridesmaid gifts – They may not wear the dress again but they will wear the lingerie!
• Holiday Lingerie – Holidays in the sun require  very different lingerie to cold, British summers – treat yourself to sets that flatter those short, cotton dresses or flowing silk wraps.
• First Bra Service – For mothers wanting to give their blossoming daughters well fitted and pretty bras  to mark this transition from girl to young lady.
• Special Gifts – Treat yourself to something that makes YOU feel as good (or as bad!) as you want!

Alison also offers the following specialist services:

• Advice and fitting service for pretty, feminine yet practical Maternity bras and briefs

• Men often come to Alison for help and advice when buying gifts for their loved ones.

Alison’s expertise guarantees that you will leave your fitting with lingerie that emphasises all the best assets of your figure, supports your natural shape and (if necessary) conceals or flatters problem areas.  Once you have worn professionally-fitted lingerie, the only ‘off the rack’ lingerie garments you will buy again will be those that have been selected by Alison on this website!

Firstly, Alison would like to suggest that rather than buying Lingerie here or in-store you simply call her now and purchase a fitting and lingerie gift voucher;

Job done, Perfect Lingerie and Guaranteed Happiness!

Call 01243 779222 or contact us for more details or why not make an appointment for Alison to advise you on your gift?

However, we are pleased to show you our gorgeous and sexy range  in our Chichester shop (or browse online & phone through your order) so,  if you would really like to pick out those special pieces yourself, please follow these simple rules;

Rule #1 : Wouldn’t you prefer to see her in sexy (but still wearable) lingerie everyday – rather than in more saucy items just once in a while? In that case – think about buying her sexy balcony or plunge bras with matching briefs or French knickers rather than our more daring G-strings and basques!

Rule #2 : Find out her bra and knicker sizes! Men tend to over-estimate bust size and underestimate knicker size. However, a fitting session or a voucher would be better than guessing.

Rule #3 : For a gift, go for just sexy lingerie OR sexy and wearable lingerie but NOT practical lingerie. Generally women buy practical underwear (such as nude or invisible straps) themselves and have very specific ideas about what practical means.

Rule #4 : Always buy a set – not one item. At the very least buy the matching bra and knickers set but also think about stockings, suspenders (or garters) and silk gowns.

Rule #5 : Sexy doesn’t need to mean lots of hooks or buttons! Seductive sheer camisoles or  steamy seamless lace bras are something that women rarely buy for themselves – but suggest that sexy underwear does not have to be only for a special occasion.

Rule #6 : Buying underwear for your lover can feel daunting. However, if you follow simple rules, your lady will not fail to be flattered. Remember that you are predominantly buying for her and, whilst the emphasis is on special occasion underwear and not everyday wear, do not stray too far from her comfort zone. For example, if she regularly wears briefs buy sexy hipster briefs rather than the G string that you would like to see, as the set is likely to get more outings.

Rule #7 : Think about material. What do you both like and what do you want it to ‘say’? Fabric can ‘give’ the following messages:

• Lace – Flirty and Feminine
• Satin -  Glamour and Hollywood
• Sheer – Tempting and Seductive
• Velvet – Rich and Desirable
• Ribbons and Bows – Playful and Pretty

(BTW if you are reading this as a man who is REALLY looking for lingerie for themselves, please see our pages on Transvestite Men and Transgender Women – don’t settle for poorly fitting garments out of fear or embarrassment.)
