What if you don’t have my size in store?
At MICHAL, we intentionally curate our collections in small quantities to preserve the uniqueness and exclusivity of each piece. This thoughtful approach ensures that your lingerie feels truly special—an intimate luxury not found everywhere. If your size isn’t immediately available, some styles can be ordered specifically for you, arriving within one to two weeks. We always consult directly with the brand to access any reserved stock, so you enjoy a seamless and personalized experience.
I’m from out of town, will you ship to me?
Yes! Our online store is open. However, not all items will be offered online. We ship anywhere in the continental US. Some items will be in-store exclusive, so stop in next time you’re in town and say hi! In the meantime, feel free to email or schedule a FaceTime personal shopping experience with our Founder, Ashley. She’ll be happy to tell you about our brands, different bra styles and shapes, and help you discover something new.
