Top 3 Lingerie and Sex Shops in Buenos Aires

Top 3 Lingerie and Sex Shops

Despite being a catholic country and the Pope’s hometown for that matter, Buenos Aires is actually a pretty sex-positive city. From the by-the-hour sex motels dotted around town to the rampant PDA, you won’t find too many porteño’s afflicted with that puritanical shame. In fact, while there are no shortage of beautiful and opulent catholic churches in Buenos Aires, there may be even more lingerie and sex shops. You shouldn’t have any trouble locating one, as they’re truly all over the place, especially downtown. But, if you want to know what you’re getting yourself into ahead of time, here are a few of our favorites.

1. Pompavana, Honduras 4658: One of the most exclusive lingerie shops in Buenos Aires, Pompavana is an alluring boutique filled with sensual bras, panties, nighties, and even a sexy swimsuit line. The service is attentive and warm, and with beautiful pieces in silk and French lace, it is impossible to resist buying the perfect accent for your romantic evening. The most important element at Pompavana is the craftsmanship, which shows in the intricately made garments that hug your curves in all the right places. For an extra treat, pick up a sensual oil, candle to create the mood, or even some handcuffs to spice up the night.

2. Virgenes de Buenos Aires, Almacen de Belleza (Nicaragua 4835) and Sexy Hexy (Olleros 1778): In the world of independently designed lingerie, nobody does it better than Virgenes de BA. Comfort is the focus at this intimate showroom, and with bras, thongs, and nighties in a variety of different sizes, you are sure to find something that fits your body. The vibe is classic 1940’s glamour, as shown by the high waisted and skirt style panties. Some of the adorable thongs come with sexy touches like bows or feathers, but my fave piece is the cropped red corset that zips up the front. It is meant to be seen, as an accent underneath your button down blouse. If you’re the kind of gal that likes to bring out your inner vixen while keeping it classy, Virgenes is the place for you.

3. Espacio Placer, Thames 1555: Although it’s small and the selection is limited, Espacio Placer is a great spot to pick up a few necessities. They’ve got vibrators in different sizes, lubes, and dildos to play with. It’s conveniently located in the heart of Palermo SoHo, and if you’re in a hurry, it gets the job done. One stop shopping for your next romantic evening.
