Looking to find the perfect bikini? Here’s our top picks.
Fact: There are not many places in Hong Kong where you can find a nice pair of bikini.
Blame it on the limited number of sunny days we get in summer, even as we type this, outside its sunny but the Typhoon Signal 1 is raised. Perhaps there’s not much of a market, as Hong Kong girls tend to shy away from the sun and are too modest to wear a bikini, which means there are only a few good places to shop for bikinis for the sun goddesses that live in our fair city.
We’ve made a brief list of the ones we think are worth checking out:

Agent Provocateur shows you how to buy for your lady.
Agent Provocateur makes some sexy lingerie for sure and you can get buy it exclusively in Hong Kong at Lane Crawford. We’ll always remember this brand because of the amazing launch party in the Western Market with the amazing burlesque dancing of the enchanting Dita Von Teese.
The lingerie brand wants to make sure if you are buying some for your sweetheart on Valentine’s Day that you have a good idea of what to buy, so here is there top 8 ideas to make sure you buy the best.
1) Be prepared; know your partners size either by asking (obviously) or discreetly checking any labels in underwear garments. She will want to try it on there and then!
2) Get something that you would like to see her in as well as something you think she would like. Being adventurous is sexy, but try and fathom what kind of style she would enjoy- cute, sexy, adventurous!
3) Colourful items are really nice to receive and not something she would necessarily buy for herself. The rest of the is here.
