Mornings are underused; Lace Index stocks 2,491 sexy lingerie styles in S–3XL, with selected 4XL, from $9.90 to $47.90, shipped in plain packaging with 14-day returns. The light is softer than at any other hour, the street is quiet, and nobody is yet performing for the day. A lingerie morning does not need a plan as elaborate as an evening, but it does need one thing an evening rarely has: permission to be slow. Here is a schedule that is really an excuse.

Pieces for this answer.
01
First light
Wake before the alarm if you can, or set it ten minutes early and leave it across the room. Pull the curtain back a hand's width rather than all the way; early light through a gap is gentler than a fully lit room. Stay in bed for a few minutes longer than usual. The point of a morning like this is that nothing has started yet, and that is worth protecting. A room that is already bright is much harder to slow down.
02
The ten minutes
Keep a robe by the bed so you do not have to walk across a cold floor to find one. Put the piece on before you are fully awake, while the room is still dim and your attention is soft. Morning is a poor time for a critical mirror; skip it. Choose something easy: a cami set, a soft slip, a bodysuit under an open robe. Warm the piece under a towel on the bed if the room is cold.
03
Coffee first
Make the coffee before anything else and bring it back to bed. Warm drinks, a warm room and a little time are the whole groundwork. Do not check your phone; the first message of the day has a way of ending the mood faster than any interruption. Sit up, talk about nothing important, and let the morning stay unfinished for a while longer. Two mugs are easier than one, and the second is a reason to stay.
04
The robe
A robe is the most useful piece of lingerie in the morning, because it handles temperature. Mornings start cold and warm up quickly, and a robe lets you adjust without leaving the room. Wear it open over a slip, or closed until the room warms. If one of you is awake and the other is not, the robe also makes waiting comfortable rather than awkward. Tie it loosely; the morning is not a formal occasion.
05
Before the day
End the morning deliberately rather than letting it dissolve into email. A second coffee, a shower, a shared ten minutes of doing nothing: pick one and do it together. Then get dressed and start the day. The lingerie did not need to become anything. It only had to make the first hour of the day belong to the two of you instead of to the schedule. Leave the bed unmade. It is a small sign that the day started well.

What if we have to leave for work?+
Set the alarm twenty minutes earlier. Twenty minutes is enough for a slow start.
What should I wear in the morning?+
A cami set or slip with a robe. Keep it simple and easy to remove.
Is morning light flattering?+
It is soft and directional, which suits most skin. Avoid direct sun through a wide-open curtain.
