Lingerie can be a bit hit and miss. Sure, you want to look smokin' hot, but you don't want to look…read morelike a complete tart. So where do you find a happy medium? Dawn Thornton Lingerie of course! This shop stocks the perfect lingerie for those looking for something slightly more modest, ladylike and for 'women of a certain age' (I mean that in the nicest way obviously.) Stunning colours but nothing to brassy, and very flattering bras and underwear for all shapes and sizes. They also stock sleepwear that is both comfortable and flattering, and simple, elegant singlets which can be worn alone or underneath clothing - they're my favourite! Ms Thornton is located in Kew Junction on the up and coming shopping strip, so after you've had your latte and been a 'lady that lunches', get yourself some ladylike undies too!

You feel very comfortable exploring all the cheeky, sexy products they sell. A real boutique with high-end toys like Lelo and Fun Factory, organic, hypoallergenic lubricants and designer lingerie like Hopeless Lingerie and Bordelle. The store is very female friendly and also holds workshops such as 'how to thrill a man'. I wish more people knew this shop existed so they could have a fun, comfortable time exploring their sensual side. JUST BEAUTIFUL!

It's a family owned and run business and it shows in the service you receive and the product knowledge of the store owners. They are friendly, chatty, helpful but never pushy. And that's what I love. I've never once felt intimidated into buying anything here, and I quite often fall into that trap. Stocking bras and panties (G's, knickers, boy legs), sets, and sexy costumes including some very dramatic, sensual masquerade masks. But the thing I love them most for and what I think they'd be most renowned for is the range of beautiful, sexy elegant corsets. For the bedroom or a night out I've never seen more variety. Shirt corsets, bed wear, dress corsets, sparkling white and black, ruffles and fiery reds; they are the sexiest yet classiest bustiers and corsets I've seen. And everything - well - most things here are SO cheap!! Stocking some of the same brands as the bigger stores there's not much here over $100, with most things being under $50. Not a bad price to make yourself suitably sizzling!

Not my usual style of store, but I was dragged in here by a friend…read more First thing I notice was how uncomfortable I feel being in here being a bigger girl, but I expected that going into a lingerie store in Armadale. As a bigger girl, I do not recommend. The staff weren't rude to me, but I felt a bit of that 'what are you doing in here' vibe. I will say the lingerie they have is very very nice. And it would want to be for the price. Some of the garments cost more than I would spend on my groceries for a month! Basically, if you are smaller than a size 12 with lots of money to throw around, this might just be heaven for you. If your not, well, avoid.

I love it when things are on sale. That's why I love Bridge Road - because everywhere you look…read morethere are sales taking place. Bendon is one of the most popular destinations along the strip because everyone needs underwear at reasonable prices. Bendon stocks some great brands including Elle Macpherson Intimates, Bendon, Macpherson Men, Stella McCartney Intimates and more. There is an enormous amount of stock to work your way through so I recommend grabbing as much as you can and then working your way through your purchases. The sales assistants do their best in a very busy environment, they are really helpful but don't expect them to stick with you the whole time - they have to keep track of all the other customers too. The stock is discounted all year round so I recommend going there every couple of months to see what new stock they have moved in. When you're shopping at David Jones or Myer and looking at lingerie, keep in mind that many of those items may well end up at Bendon a few weeks or months later.

But on an afternoon stroll up Smith Street, the words "Nothing over $20" caught my eye and I had to have a gander. As a woman I have often gazed lovingly at gorgeous underwear from brands such as Elle McPherson, Fayreform and the ever impressive Pleasure State. I have then looked at the price tags and almost cried. But not at the Bendon Factory Shop. The prices here are so low that you almost want to give them more money. Pleasure State in particular can be up to $150 for a bra - for ONE BRA. At the Bendon Factory Shop? 20 bucks. Now we can all afford to feel (and look) smokin' hot in our knickers. Ladies, buy up!

I like beautiful underwear but I don't like the prices. Enter: the Bendon Factory Shop. Down the…read morediscount end of Fitzroy's Smith Street, the Bendon Factory Shop stocks a range of underwear by labels such as Bendon and Elle Macpherson at quite frankly flabbergastingly low prices. As such, queues for changing rooms and suchlike can be formidable but if you're wise and avoid this place like the proverbial plague at weekends you can come away with more than a few bargains without too much hoopla. $10 bra sales and the like are commonplace and you can easily save up to 70% on some very saucy smalls. A quick caveat emptor: there's a reason that a lot of this stock is discounted with some odd - and overly kinky - designs and not the best range of sizes on offer. As such, do make sure you choose wisely to avoid mistakenly returning home with too small smalls or crotchless panties. That said, for eagle eyed lingerie lovers the Bendon Factory Shop is an absolute must visit.
