Well it depends on the theme of the bridal shower.....and also depends on the bride.
You can go with practical(household items, bed or bath items, kitchen gadgets,etc).
Or you can go with lingerie or something impractical.
If your really stumped, go get a gift card from Bed Bath and Beyond or Bath and Body Works......Or both :)

I'm sure the bride is registered somewhere. Buy something off of the registry because that way you know you are getting something she wants/needs.
Unless you know the bride (and other shower guests) really well, please don't give lingerie or anything sexual. My mom and future MIL went to my bridal showers, and it was incredibly awkward for me to open a box only to have to show my mom lingerie. Not to mention that's the kind of thing many women like to pick out for themselves. Get a Victoria's Secret gift card, if you must go that route.

The appropriate gift for a bridal show is a silver ware set, is nice. If you want to be naughty lingerie would be best.

Something for her specificly nothing domestic. If you do not know her taste to well a gift certificate to a place like bed bath and beyond would be good. Avoid tacky novilty gifts or sexy type gifts they usually are just done to make the bride blush.

That depends on how well you know the person. If you know her well you could give her lingerie. You could also give a gift certificate to a spa for a facial or massage. I gave my cousin a gift basket of "sensual" lotions, oils, and such from Bath and Body Works.

A gift card to a nice department store would be real cool. That way she can get what she wants.

My best friend and I got our other best friend a beautiful, but modest (the bride's a little conservative) lingerie set from Victoria's Secret. But on top of that, we placed this horrible mu-mu from Wal-Mart. Everyone got a laugh over it. We also got her some of the domestic things she asked for separately.

a luxurious set of 550ct or higher sheets for the bed. nothing like the creamy, sensual feeling when you climb into bed. yummy!
have some class and dont give a tawdry gift.
about the sex gifts like oils and stuff and lingerie, skip that. their sex life is none of YOUR business!
