Lingerie designers hunker down and work during the winter months. They know that the cold weather does nothing for their product -- women do not want to imagine lingerie when it's fifteen degrees -- and prepare for spring. With its arrival, lingerie stores are flush with new lines, new styles, and new bargains. The designers are eager to show their work to the world, and retail spaces are eager to provide women with exciting options. Oftentimes women feel inspired by the warm weather. They are ready to shed their winter layers, and as the new lingerie lines arrive, they encourage their loved ones to show their affection by buying them a new bra or panties.
