Sunny Pin-Ups by Bien Fee Pour Toi

When a lingerie label does such a cute job putting together it's catalogue, it's hard to resist sharing! French lingerie label Bien Fee Pour Toi recently unveiled its Spring 2010 collection in an impressive array of old-fashioned pin-up photographs. We have actually included both Spring and the previous Fall 2009 pictures in this post since they worked so well together...don't you agree?
The beautiful designer Vanessa Schleimer developed the brand in 2005, and has previously collaborated with Victoria's Secret and Topshop, but we feel that in the past two seasons that Bien Fee Pour Toi has found its niche and developed its unique identity.
The new arrivals are now online for purchase, and you can do so by clicking here!

Huit Lingerie

Huit is a wonderful French lingerie brand that is very popular with our customers. Pretty much everyone who shops with us loves the basic/t-shirt bras from their 'Just a Kiss' collection - we're obsessed with ours! In any event, if you love the fit of their basic bras, then that love-affair will continue with their Spring 2009 fashion collection. Currently, the Huit lingerie collection is broken into 4 groups: Glamour, Graphics, Fashion, and Essentials. The above images represent items from the Spring line. Of couse, there is also the Huit swimwear collection, which was the basis for the brand nearly 40 years ago.

The Best-Kept Secret in Lingerie: Courtworth (aka Worth)

Just like some of our brands such as Vannina Vesperini & Carine Gilson, it isn't too often that you come across a luxury lingerie line like Courtworth Paris.
We are proud and incredibly excited to announce the debut of the French lingerie line at Faire Frou Frou!
As you can see, this is quite a beautiful line that specializes in the use of lace, and the bras and bustiers make great layering pieces.
Courtworth, known as Worth in Europe (due to copyright or corporate name issues in the U.S.) is a luxury lingerie line from Paris, France with pieces hand-made in Italy. It is crafted using the same techniques as those used to make the line during the late 19th Century! Many hours of work goes into each piece, which often includes 45 manual operations from start to finish. The result is a collection that is exquisite and unique.
We will be carrying the Spring/Summer AND Fall/Winter collections from Courtworth this year.
You can shop for any of these looks right now at Faire Frou Frou!
We have posted images of some of the items we just received...they are actually more beautiful in person!!!!! Each piece comes with its own sheer black mesh lingerie bag that has a little black bow closure, which is so cute and very upscale looking. We are thoroughly impressed!!!!

the Faire Frou Frou PARIS buying trip!!

Alison & Gail are packing up and heading to the beautiful city of Paris for a lingerie-buying trip for Faire Frou Frou!
We have appointments with many of the top lingerie designers in the world, some of which are at a tradeshow, or within the brand's Paris boutique. We are so excited to have our meeting at the famous Chanel boutique (for Eres lingerie) as well as Christian Dior (the same store shown on the last episodes of 'Sex & the City').
We have meetings with a variety of wonderful designers, but for now we need to remain hush-hush on the names (we can't give the competition all of our secrets!)!
Aside from work, we will be attending a Balanchine/Forsythe ballet at the Opera Garnier (ooh la la!), and will spend time at the wonderful flea markets for some personal goodies.
A trip to Paris would not be complete without an afternoon tea and sweets at LADUREE...we will bring back plenty of gifts from there!
We seriously have a huge list of places to shop, eat, drink...so much to do, so little time!
In the meantime, Faire Frou Frou will be open for business!!!
Our online store is open for business as usual, so please continue to shop there as well!

A Bientot!
