Harry in Lingerie Fest

A fest for all things featuring Harry Potter in lingerie.

[hilfest]

The HILF zine is here!!

Hello, HILF fans! It's been a hot minute, but we're finally back with the pièce de résistance, the culmination of the Harry in Lingerie Fest -- the Playboy-Who-Lived zine!

Playboy-Who-Lived contains some gorgeous art (including the spectacular cover by @stolenviolet!!) and fan creations made specifically for this project, as well as spreads for each of the fics written for HILF. Check out the amazing layouts created by the inimitable, incredible @chaos-bear, who brought this project to life in a way beyond the original idea's wildest hopes.

Give it a flip, peruse the pages, and appreciate all the love and talent that went into creating this zine and the fics and art within!

Thank you again to everyone who participated in the fest last year -- we couldn't have done this without you <3

Will there be 2026 round?

We don't have plans to continue the fest this year nor in the future, but who knows? Chaos and I (Flaky) accomplished what we set out to do. If someone wants to run a similar event, I'd be happy to share some info!

Complete fics posted on AO3 this day

1. Conductive Properties of Holly by @velasis [T, 3k]

Draco’s bun needs a hair‑pin and Harry’s wand keeps getting “misplaced.” [...]

2. Pretty Thing by RavensSihouette [?, 37k]

After two years together, Harry’s planned a ton of surprises for their anniversary holiday. Draco’s sure he’s going to be absolutely and thoroughly fucked.

3. Shout It Out by @toomuchplor [E, 4k]

Harry knows exactly what Draco would be like in bed; in a word: loud

4. When you smile, sun shines by ShellheadsEri [E, 12k]

In their unexpected eighth year at Hogwarts, Harry returns broken but hopeful, still clinging to old loves and old roles. But when Ginny breaks his heart and his friends begin to drift, Harry finds unlikely solace in the one person he was never meant to understand: Draco Malfoy. [...]

Fest/Exchange

★ Harry in Lingerie Fest | @hilfest

Jock(ey) for Position by @smugrobotics [E, 7k] How is it that, after everything, they both get recruited by the Magpies? It goes beyond just unlikely; it's outright unfair. [...] To say it hasn't been going well is an understatement.

Pretty in Pink by @nv-md [E, 2k] Harry Potter's supposedly made a name for himself as 'The Arse', rumour has it that he offers himself up at a seedy glory hole for anyone and everyone to fuck. Draco doesn't believe it… until he sees it for himself.

Sexy Secrets and Ulterior Motives by Devious_Muffin [E, 4k] While killing time, Draco stumbles upon something completely unexpected. Consumed by curiosity, he follows Harry around Diagon Alley, risking the wrath of Pansy to find out more. It's completely worth it, for both of them.

Happy Lingerie Day!

The day is finally here, and the Harry in Lingerie Fest (HILF) collection is live! Please go and check out all the fantastic contributions when you have the chance~

Thank you to everyone who participated and supported this fest! We're so tickled that others love the idea of Harry in lingerie as much as we do <3

Here's the link: https://archiveofourown.org/collections/HILF

Also, the 'zine will be coming out later, so keep an eye on this page for the link to that!

[blackcider]

My dear artists who love drawing Harry in sexy little fits. Do your thing. Harry welcoming Minister Riddle home from a looong tiring day.

Sorry for the accidental reblogs (ᵕ—ᴗ—) Flaky is not great at account-switching.

But! Let's take this opportunity to reiterate:

Prompt claiming is now open!

Go grab yourself a shiny prompt and start creating~ And if you want to chat about the fest, join us on Discord!

Happy Valentine's day, HILFers~ <3

[hilfest]

Can we still submit prompts even though claiming opened up? I was planning to submit one later today.

Yes, absolutely! You can submit and/or claim prompts until mid-April~

[hilfest]

Time to claim a prompt!

Prompt-claiming is now open! Visit the HILF AO3 collection to grab a prompt between now and April 14. Multiple people can claim the same prompt, so don't despair if someone else has already claimed the one you want.

There are 54 awesome prompts to choose from!! Thank you so much for your prompting enthusiasm! <3 Can't wait to see what you make with them~

Note: If you claimed a prompt before Feb. 14, you may notice that your claim is gone. Please re-claim it now!

[hilfest]

One week left before prompt claiming begins!

We already have 52 prompts, but there's room for more! Check out the prompts in the ao3 collection and add to them if there's anything you think is missing!

And if you're interested in participating in the HILF zine, come join us on Discord!

[hilfest]

Hello! Are Female!Harry writers welcome to participate in this fest? Just checking

Hi there! Yes, female!Harry writers are absolutely welcome in HILF! Come, join us~

[hilfest]

Is self-promoting allowed?

Yes! Self-prompting is allowed. I've asked a friend to add a self-prompting option on ao3, so it should appear in the next day or so.

[hilfest]

HILF prompting is now open!

The two-week prompting period begins! Head on over to the AO3 collection to submit and peruse prompts. Prompt-picking begins on Feb. 14. Multiple people can claim the same prompt -- the more, the merrier~!

(FYI: prompts can still be submitted after Feb. 14, there's just a lower likelihood of them being chosen, probably)

Can't wait to see what you all come up with! <3 Happy prompting~

[hilfest]

hi! i was wondering how do i sign up for this event?? Do i have to fill out a form or join the discord server ? is there a certain time i should be attentive of for signing up?

Hi! I'm so glad you're interested in joining! If you're interested in the main event -- the Harry in Lingerie Fest -- then there's no sign up, though you can join the collection as a member if you like (https://archiveofourown.org/collections/HILF). Otherwise, as long as you're following this account you'll see the posts about the important events dates!

On Feb. 1, you can leave a prompt (or five), and on Feb. 14 you can choose a prompt. If you pick a prompt, that's you signing up to participate~

If you're interested in participating in the HILF magazine in any capacity, I might recommend joining the Discord server. I plan to make sure all event info is on both Tumblr and Discord, but it often happens faster on Discord and you can join/witness discussions about it~

PlayBoy-Who-Lived

Because we don’t know how to stop, a few of us have come up with the idea of making a fake Playboy magazine – featuring our favourite Golden Boy – as a HILF side project. This isn’t required, but it’s another way to showcase the work we’ll do for the fest. If you’re on the fence about participating in the fest, maybe consider submitting something for this? Possible categories of submissions for PlayBoy-Who-Lived:

editorial (from chaos and I)

letters to the editor (which may get a response) (max. 200 words)

op eds from other HP characters (max. 500 words)

short articles/columns on in-world topics (max. 500 words)

interview article with Harry to accompany centrefold (max. 1,000 words)

missed connections

an advice column (like Dear Abby or whatever the modern equivalents are)

“Paparazzi” shots – Harry on the street, at the beach, through his flat window, etc.

We'd like to put together an astrology section, too. If the stars are your passion and you want to take it on, let us know~

We’ll also include snippets of fics written for the fest (as many as we can), and probably all the art created for HILF!

No idea what this will become, whether a digital magazine or a website to scroll through or something else, but we’re giving it a go.

If you want to make something for the ‘zine but don’t see it on the list, just ask!

Also, in case you missed it: we now have a Discord server! (It's 18+)

[hilfest]

Happy New Year, HILFers! Hope you're having a great start to 2025. Prompting begins in just under four weeks. Are you excited?? We're excited <3

Thanks to the dedicated efforts of the most excellent Jenny, with assists from @chaos-bear, we now have a Discord server! Feel free to join if you want to -- it's a space to chat and cheerlead each other on for the fest. Brainstorm prompts, participate in sprints, or lurk to your heart's content! (Please note that it's 18+)

If you have any questions or concerns, be sure to ping the mod squad for assistance.
