The Souvenir collection by Zinke has finally arrived at Faire Frou Frou!  We gave you a little sneak peek of this fabulous new group a few months back, which certainly stirred up some excitement with our customers.  The new collection includes a variety of Zinke's signature rompers, bralets and ruched-back panties in a new assortment of colors and textures.  The Fall color palette is great for mix & matching with smoky lilac, lake blue, gravel gray and rust-colored accents.  With each season Zinke grows in popularity, which makes us extremely proud.  We have a feeling once the world sees this season's designs that its popularity will only skyrocket!
So, do share, which piece is your favorite?  We just posted the collection to our website and it's already selling quickly...we're glad we snagged our favorite pieces in time!

The Fall 2011 collection from Lascivious is now available with a combination of new styles and improved versions of past season favorites!  According to the designer, the new season was inspired by "dark street scenes; pavements glittering with rain & lamplight illuminating texture & tone". The collection is sexy & sophisticated, featuring gun-metal components & a muted colour-palette punctuated with Swarovski crystal detailing & gun-metal chain, as well as special collaboration pieces with accessories designer Fraulein Kink!
Our favorite group is called Josefine, which is featured at the top of the post and includes pieces made with a lovely scalloped eyelash lace.  You can purchase the Josefine group, along with some past season favorites here!

Simply Sexy - Kate Beckinsale

Naturally once we saw these images of Kate Beckinsale over on Design Love Fest we knew they needed to be shared with you!  Just a basic bra and boy short layered with a blouse can be so sexy, and what's great is that so many of us already have the basic foundations to create this very look.  It's wonderful knowing that as amazing as elaborate luxury lingerie can be that something so basic can be equally if not more sexy.  Perhaps that's the concept mastered so effectively by brands such as Eres, Hanro and Skin...sometimes less is more.
(Granted we are still Swarovski crystal-loving, lace, silk and ostrich feather-wearing, glitz and glam girls at heart!).

It may still be Summer, but the lovely people at Ritratti are giving us a taste of Fall/Winter 2011 with a preview of their decadent new collection.  The latest collection, called Venice Mood, is a wonderful display of Italian lingerie at its finest and features classic pieces that are elegant and wearable for everyday.  Our favorite looks are the first two pictures, just very understated but incredibly chic.  We also can't help but love the sequin cover-up...certainly a fun way to dress-up any look!

Hopeless Lingerie - Revenge

Just when we think we have seen our favorite work from Hopeless Lingerie, designer Gabrielle Adamidis pulls out all the stops and presents us with another stunner.  These images are from the Fall 2011 collection Revenge, which was beautifully photographed once again by Jo Duck and modeled by Lulu Wagstaffe.  These images are not what we typically think of when we think "budding lingerie designer"...this flawless presentation looks like it should be in the pages of Vogue!
The new Revenge pieces are made from bamboo jersey and select items have silk detailing.  The styling is impressive and on-trend with its cut-out styles, high-waist panties and bold lines.  According to the brand's designer,
The 'REVENGE' collection...is inspired by the harsh design aesthetic of the 1980s, constructing hard lines and bold shapes into modern wearable pieces. Taking visual cues from Revenge of the Nerds, Less than Zero and Debbie Harry's character in Videodrome, the range carries both dark undertones and an austere femininity.
 As always, the lingerie is made-to-order and can be purchased here.
