La Fille d'O Lingerie

 images via here

La Fille d'O is a luxury lingerie brand from Belgium that has an erotic fashion-forward look like no other.  We love when a designer captures a unique style and develops something quite new.  Not only is their look one-of-a-kind, but even the construction and sizing of their bras is unique to their label.  Each bra is sized as S1-S5 (no A,B,C,D for these gals) and fitted with adjustments that create a custom-tailored fit no matter what your size!  Even the sizes S, M & L are alternatively called "Tiny, Bouncy and Curvy".  The designer describes their bras as "looking light as sunny clouds but supporting you firmly like strong hands" - we like that! 
Here's a bit more of how the brand describes itself:
la fille d'O is a one woman show.
yours.
it's showtime from the moment you crawl out of bed
includes that second when your panties are visible under that skirt of yours
includes that smile on your face when you can loose yourself in life

la fille d'O doesnt take things for granted.

la fille d'O tries to know the rules. to bend them only seconds later.
not scared to break em when new rules are dying to be applied.
la fille d'O is a pottymouth with the ideal granddaughter flair.
respect and a healthy dose of f**k
aultre ne veulx estre*

come see if i am not a liar.

Design Behind Desire

If you're a lingerie lover, you probably recognize the panties at the top of this post as Strumpet & Pink.  If you are a fan of Strumpet & Pink, you may very well enjoy this new book Design Behind Desire, curated by the lingerie brand's designer Lisa Z. Morgan. 
This photo book features art, fashion and design that are erotic or sexual at their core.  That being said, of course the designer behind Strumpet & Pink is behind this!

Véronique Branquinho for Marie Jo L'Aventure

images via here & here

Belgian lingerie brand Marie Jo L'Aventure teamed up with fashion designer Véronique Branquinho to create the Fall 2011 capsule lingerie collection shown here.  The collection has a little bit of a retro vibe but is also quite modern and chic!  The capsule group features pieces made from satin and tulle, and available in black and emerald green.  Let's face it, the emerald green is to die for! 
Branquinho was inspired by classic paintings by the old masters Cranach, Giorgione, Raphael & Dürer, and she re-worked some of their famous creations to include her designs!  
To learn more about the collaboration between Marie Jo L'Aventure and Véronique Branquinho, you can view the press release here.

Carine Gilson - Fall-Winter 2011- 2012

images via Carine Gilson

It's time once again for our semi-annual gushing over Carine Gilson's latest collection!  The Fall 2011 styles were just released on the designer's website, and our fantasy lingerie wish list once again grows.  A new style that we are excited to see is the more casual gathered-waist slip dress, and another favorite is the elegant bow-tie belted dress that has a definite ready-to-wear look.  Once again we see a few luscious kimono robes that have the signature Carine Gilson delicate lace detail.  Just seeing the new season makes us proud to own a few of her pieces from past seasons as they never go out of style.  Many people consider designer lingerie an investment, and this is one designer worth investing in!
