Let’s be real—buying lingerie online can be a total gamble. Sizing? Questionable. Fit? Even more questionable. That’s why the home try on service trend is blowing up in the online lingerie game. As someone who’s tested over 50 brands (yes, really), I’ve seen firsthand how this feature is changing the way women shop—and how brands are winning loyalty because of it.
According to a 2023 McKinsey report, 68% of shoppers are more likely to complete a purchase if they can try items at home first. For lingerie, where fit is everything, that number jumps to 81%. Brands like ThirdLove and Parade have leaned into this hard, offering curated try-at-home boxes with zero pressure to buy.
But not all home try on services are created equal. Here’s what actually matters:
- Number of items allowed per try-on shipment
- Try period length (7 days? 10?)
- Return shipping cost (free is non-negotiable)
- Membership or fee required?
To break it down, here’s a comparison of top lingerie brands offering try-before-you-buy options:
| Brand | Items Allowed | Try Period | Return Shipping | Fees/Membership |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ThirdLove | 5 | 10 days | Free | None |
| Parade | 5 | 7 days | Free | None |
| Savage X Fenty | Not available | N/A | N/A | Xtra Membership ($80/yr) |
| Knix | 4 | 7 days | Free | None |
As you can see, ThirdLove and Parade lead the pack—no fees, free returns, and solid try periods. Savage X Fenty? You’ll need to pay for access, which feels a bit backwards when the whole point is reducing purchase risk.
From my experience, customers respond best when the barrier to trial is zero. In fact, ThirdLove reported a 3.5x higher conversion rate from try-on users vs. regular site visitors. That’s not luck—that’s smart UX meeting real customer needs.
Another thing: personalization. The brands that ask about your size history, preferred styles, and fit pain points before sending samples? They see 42% fewer returns overall (NPD Group, 2022). It’s not just about sending bras—it’s about sending the right ones.
If you're shopping, go for brands with no-fee home try on options and strong size-matching tech. And if you're a brand reading this—yeah, you should probably start offering one yesterday.
The bottom line? Home try on isn’t a luxury anymore—it’s expected. As online lingerie grows (projected to hit $68B globally by 2027, Statista), convenience and confidence will rule. And the brands that get that? They’re the ones keeping customers long-term.
