It's been a while since we featured a lingerie editorial on our blog, and luckily the right lingerie in the right images made it our way.  These photos include lingerie from some of our favorite British designers, such as Lascivious, Ayten Gasson and Ell & Cee.  The photos are by Ewelina Stechnij, whose work we are certain you've seen before if you are a fan of our blogs and Lascivious.  Just as a refresher, we will re-post some of her older work on our Tumblr, so check it out here!

The Madame V "Octavia" collection

Yet another fun, flirty Madame V collection has arrived! This group is called Octavia and comes in this beautiful 'powder blue' (as they call it), which really looks more like periwinkle. This entire group is so cute, particularly because of the little velvet rosette bouquet pin on most of the pieces. To top off the cuteness, there's the pink ostrich hand fan that came with the group that we just love! In fact, the hand fan makes a great accessory for most of the brands we carry in the store.
We have other new items from Madame V (and Courtworth) that will be posted to the online store this week...and certainly we will post about them when they are available for purchase!
Of course, the Octavia collection is currently available online, so treat yourself to something sweet!

Teri Hatcher on "Desperate Housewives"

Of all of the shows we do costuming for, we have no problem spotting our products on Desperate Housewives! On last night's episode, we dressed Teri Hatcher (or Susan Mayer) for a scene in which she was mistaken for a stripper...though a classy one!
She wore the Elle MacPherson Boudoir Gold Torsolette and matching Gold Briefs. The Boudoir collection is still available online, so get it now!
Speaking of Teri Hatcher and lingerie, she is the spokesperson/model for the Badgley Mishka intimates collection. Seeing that she looks amazing in lingerie, that's a good decision for them!
UPDATE: Since our original post, the Torsolette has sold out, but we still have the matching Bra, Garter Belt, Brief and Thong in this group. Check them out!

Luxury Lingerie Dress-Up! The Modern Courtesan

We finally received the first part of our shipment from The Modern Courtesan, and just in time for the up-coming holiday season (starting with Halloween!).
As we posted previously, this collection is all-class, but plenty of fun! For a more sophisticated look, we love the Spalicious silk robe (in silver). For more playful attire, we are loving the Spalicious Zen Mistress Dress and the Do Disturb Maid's Dress.
We now have all of these items available for purchase online!

New Arrivals Online - The Lake & Stars

Check out the new arrivals from The Lake & Stars.
We posted about the new goodies a few posts back, and just letting you know that part of the order arrived!
The Opportunity Trench that we mentioned will come later this month!

Panty Cherie collection from Huit

It's finally happened - we have E-cup bras in stock! We recently received our Huit Fall shipment which contained the "Panty Cherie" set shown here.
The collection is made from a Lycra jacquard voile with a tiny floral motif. The bras in this group are feminine with their ruffle lace detail, but they aren't so over-the-top that you can't wear a sweater over it. This group is a step above what we consider 'basics' with its sweet detaling and style, and the fact that it is reasonably priced for a fashion group.
At Faire Frou Frou we are stocking the Half-Cup Bra which is available in 32-38 C, D, E and the Half-Cup Push-Up Bra in 32-38 B, C, D. Both styles have underwire support and NO padding. We also selected the matching Thong and Boxer Shorts (shown) to go with the bras. These pieces really make a cute set...check them out on our online store now!

Vannina Vesperini - she's back!

We couldn't have been happier when we received the news that Vannina Vesperini was back in business...and she's just as wonderful as ever! We met with Vannina and her assistant Sabrina in a gorgeous apartment/studio in Paris not too far from the Champs-Elysees, which made our travels well worth it! We had a stunning model (who kind of looked like the designer) present the collection to us, while all of us sat back on plush suede sofas and sipped warm tea served in antique cups and nibbled on pound cake...
Though we have promised to keep the details of her new collection confidential, we can share that the new pieces are high-fashion luxury, with a variety of robes and gowns that are to die for! The collection will arrive at our boutique in July, and we can't wait.
Vannina has chosen to keep her distribution to a select few boutiques around the world, so we are proud to be in the mix.
We did notice that some of the pieces are inspired by some of Vannina's more 'classic' styles from her previous designs, but with new colors and patterns. Typically we tend to shy away from purchasing items with prints/patterns, but her choices were subtle and sweet, and are sure to wow our customers. What's new to her designs are her removable logo pearl-encrusted brooches that make great accessories for some of her gowns.
Welcome back Vannina!
