"Set" when used for clothing?

Question

Hi! How would I say "set" when referring to something like a matching bra and underwear set? The dictionary makes it look like I should choose "juego" over "conjunto," but I've always associated "juego" with playing games/sports.

I'm trying to say "I bought this set."

Answer 3

Conjunto de sujetador y bragas ( set of bra and underpants) .

I looked it up in Mil anuncios, there are masses, black, lacy, red, whatever, so I think this is correct. - annierats, May 6, 2014

Answer 4

I´m curious what others say, as I don´t know on this one. I have seen the English word ¨set¨ used quite a few times in clothing adverts, but suspect there is a more pure Spanish term too.

I DO know that juego is a very common word for set, as in ¨a set of parts¨, so I wouldn´t let that it´s a homophone for game throw me off at all.

Un juego de pastillas de frenos -- A set of brake pads Un juego de retenes -- A set of seals

Yes, I saw ' set' as well, it seems very common, in fact. - annierats, May 7, 2014
