NO! Don't be that person!!!
Lingerie is only appropriate if you're actually dating someone. Even if she knows you like her, until you're in a relationship with her- that's definitely pushing the boundaries. Because she still sees you as a friend. That's implying you see her in a sexual manner, and yeah I'm sure you do, but again: you're not dating her.
Please stick to a safer, "friendlier" gift.

So you are friendzoned?
No gift will get you out.
Work on yourself man. Get fit, get skilled, earn good income, have goals and ambition, be strong willed in your life.
Your time is valuable to you, let her know that. Don't spend that much time with her and don't always be free.
Date/talk to other women.
And with all that you also look like a good partner to her. If that is what you want.
Buy her what you want, either it's lingerie or a huge teddy. Be kind and good to her but don't be a pussy and worry about what she will think or how the relationship will go. Just be you.- u
No don’t buy her lingerie. But I see nothing wrong with a gift card to someplace that sells lingerie among other things. That way she can get something she wants or needs, not something you want to see on her (and maybe take off of her). If a boyfriend were to give me a VS gift card I’d be replacing a lot of undies that have holes in them 😀
“Romantically interested” and “good friend.”
No, you’re not really friends then.
As for lingerie being a good gift in this scenario, no, I don’t think it is. If you were an intimate partner then that would make more sense and wouldn’t be awkward, creepy, etc.If you were intimate already, it would be excellent. But as friends? I owuld say NO. But then you typed this:
"She has had me purchase clothes for her before which included lingerie. Although she did ask me to then and thus wasn't a surprise."
Which is unusual.Sure - if they've asked for it.
But be honest, you know it's going to get taken the wrong way - especially as sizes are crazy in them, if you give her a bi size she's going to think you think she's fat, if a size too small then she's going to think you want her to be lose weight, etc.
Save yourself the stress and buy her something decent instead.Ehh I'd say hold off on that unless your dating or preferably in a relationship with her. And even then if giving lingerie as a gift it's best to also give her something she'd actually want along with it. Because lets be honest lingerie is usually more of a gift for us.
I honestly wouldn't recommend it as a friendly gift, if you do really want to give her a present I recommend asking if she even want a present or not. If she do you can ask her if she has anything in mind she been trying to get or she probably isn't the sort of a person who actually want a gift.
But the idea of lingerie is more for a relationship purpose, you know if you guys were dating or married but considering you two are only friends I honestly wouldn't recommend that route.I don't think it'd be appropriate unless there's some kind of relationship happening. You may end up pushing her away.
Don’t do this. Something like this is to be worn for and with someone. She will never wear it.
I’d recommend taking her on an experience. Something you can do together.- u
No, if you have remained in the friendzone for 10 years, they is not going to get you out of that jail. Lingerie should be given between sexual partners only.
She is just your friend. I think lingerie would be appropriate if you were dating her. I would play it safe by gifting her a voucher that relates to any of her interests.
Not really, I mean the person giving the lingerie is implied to see her in it. So that is basically just a gift for sexual partners. So you need to have that kind of relationship.
She knows you are romantically interested in her, but before I saw yay or nay on the lingerie, how does she feel about you romantically speaking? because that really would define my answer.
Have you had sex with this friend? If not that could kill the friendship
Dude don't do it. She might get creeped out. Maybe ask her on a date and tell her how you feel. Then gift a lingerie.
Unless you’re in a relationship or having casual sex lingerie is never an appropriate gift
Absolutely not, the only time it is not creepy as fuck is if you are in a sexual relationship with them. And even then it's still a selfish gift.
Nope, especially if she's not your girlfriend or wife.
Yeah but not every year 😂. I would like it as a gift though.
There is nothing wrong with lingerie as long as you know she will be comfortable wearing something like that.
