I had a wonderful experience in the shop. They are super sweet from the second you walk in. My girlfriend tried on about 10 different lingerie tops (most come paired woth matching thong) and the changing area is very private.

This little shop is too cute! I love the set up of this place, it’s small but it has a lot to offer without being stuffy. They have well known brand names in all the cute (summer) seasonal colors! Wish I had more money to blow because I felt like a kid in a candy store! They have a little section for weddings with all your bridal needs and a section of under garments for those tricky backless, deep-​v dresses/​tops along with double sided tape, etc… I could be wrong but they looked like they carried bigger sizes as well, I know how hard it is to find good quality that fits perfect!
I needed something for a backless dress and I was actually debating on returning the dress because I did’t know how I as going to wear it but they had my size in the bra I needed and the woman was beyond helpful! Very nice and gave me all the tips I needed. Plus, it was so much cheaper than every other stores I’ve been to. I will never go back to those chain lingerie stores again!

WOW, really wow! First off I will have to say my experience was all thanks to Leah! she was hysterical and definitely broke that «I feel awkward buying this stuff» feeling. She was grabbing different outfits, all within my price range and even offered her opinion! She was so helpful and the selection they had was out of this world! I think the customer service did it for me though really. The prices are reasonable, and their sales rack is killer. I was able to find an exciting outfit that still stayed classy. BEST intimates store in Baltimore!

Pretty Stuff!
My friend was in the market for Honey Moon lingerie so we stepped in here to check out what they have.
This little lingerie store has some beautiful and classy lingerie. It is a very small store but it has a nice collection of beautiful pieces. They have Chemises, tanks, bras of all kinds, leggings and a whole lot of lingerie I have never seen before.
They have a great sale rack in the back. Of course it is filled with super small or super large sizes. So if you are on the tail ends of the size chart you might find some good deals here.
Worth a stop by while you are in Hampden! If you need some more fun, check out Sugar across the street.

Moments like this certainly confirm one’s sense of class and adulthood. When one gets tired of the mainstream, the commercial, the basic, one stops buying it. But then comes the moments of need and if you are fed up enough you will go looking for exactly what you want. Because it has to be out there!!!
The Bottom Drawer is like an Oprah Ah-​ha moment. Its cozy. Its intimate. Service is wonderful. The options are shhhh but not trashy shhhh. I can buy classy regulars (lol) and special occasion wear. Will you have to dig deep in your pockets? Not really. I’ve bought plenty more expensive items from VS.

Ms. Julia is a mistress of her craft. She helped me go from flub to fab thanks to a great bra fitting… which is not something that I take for granted after years of bad experiences! The brands she carries are lovely and rich in quality. The prices vary for modest budgets (e.g. $ 40 for a lovely, lacy, luxe cami/​panty set) to splurges on luxury gowns and lingerie. The shop is well put together and classically decorated with perfect lighting. There is something for every lady — from itty bitties to the well-​endowed. Ms. Julia will make sure that you will look as great as you feel and your cup won’t «runneth over» no matter your size!

Thank God for a classy lingerie store. So many stores now have this teeny-​bopper feel to it that the old skool, classiness is almost completely gone. When I go shopping for my «unmentionables,» I am trying to get my grown-​woman on, not push past 16 year olds with their fass tails. LOL!
The Bottom Drawer, therefore, is top notch. Located off 36th street («around the corner» from where you would think it would be), it feels almost like you are walking into a cellar or basement at first, so the name is definitely fitting. Inside though, you are greeted with sweet, light music in the air, the scent of warm candles, and maybe even a treat or two at the counter.
The garments are all delicate and gorgeous, from lace to silk to cotton, and perfectly made. Whether it’s something for a romantic night or just something to make you feel like a lady, you will find it here. On top of that, the prices are definitely fair. Not inexpensive, but not so expensive that you can’t cop something real quick without feeling guilty about it.
It hasn’t been open long (at least not in this location), so I would definitely recommend you checking it out. Valentines is just around the corner! Buy a gift that keeps on giving :)
