Andres Sarda - Fall 2009 Lingerie

via The Lingerie Post

Just when we thought we've seen our favorite Fall 2009 lingerie campaigns, we discovered these images by Andres Sarda. Andres Sarda is a Spanish luxury lingerie brand that typically puts on a gorgeous annual runway show. This year they put together a short film (click here to view) that features their Fall collection and it's quite provocative and beautiful. Granted, not much of a plot, but it wonderfully showcases their designs on a sexy model. The images in this post appear to be stills from the film. We love how these photos perfectly capture the spirit and glamour of the brand.
We still have a few older season items from Andres Sarda in the SALE section of our website.

3.1 Phillip Lim Lingerie

images via here

This feels like one of the more subdued posts we've done in a while, and perhaps that's the intent of the classic, clean designs by 3.1 Phillip Lim. This year marks the debut of Lim's lingerie collection, which can now be found exclusively at his namesake stores. In true 3.1 style, each piece is understated, elegant and great for layering. The prices for the lingerie collection range in price between $55-$150...which is better than we expected.
Will you be wearing Phillip Lim's new underpinnings?

Lace Leggings

This editorial is from the German magazine Tush, featuring Australian model Skye Stracke, and the first picture with the lace leggings was begging to be posted on our blog!
We also wanted to include some of the other photos because of the panties in lieu of pants, and those cool Wolford stirrup stockings in the last image. The credits are in German (which we can't read), but it appears that the lace leggings in the first image are by Gianfranco Ferre. We would love to own those!

La Perla

We can finally announce that we are bringing La Perla lingerie back to Faire Frou Frou, and we are so excited! The new goodies will be arriving in January 2010, but in the meantime the images from their current collection are so gorgeous that we had to share. In fact, the images in this post were blown up into life-size posters at the La Perla NYC office, and while we were there we took pictures with each one (but they came out ugly, so we're not sharing). We were pleased to learn that under the company's new ownership, and because of the 'recession', the Spring/Summer 2010 prices for La Perla are slightly lower than previous seasons. Yay for that!
In any event, we will re-visit the topic of La Perla once we start receiving our new shipments in just a matter of weeks.
Don't you think this is one of the prettiest lingerie photo shoots for Fall 2009? In terms of lingerie brands, they are tied with Fleur of England for being our favorite spread.

Show Girls Show-Off!

fishnets and patterned tights are a big trend this season!

images by Giuliano Bekor

Something about our fascination with designer lingerie borders our obsession with feathers, sequins and fishnets...which pretty much means a showgirl or burlesque look. There's so much fantasy and ultra-feminine glam that appeals to us. The same can be said for lingerie wherein you can create a costume (if you will) to step into a fantasy persona. That actually touches on the philosophy behind Faire Frou Frou and why we specialize in gorgeous, unique lingerie.
These images from photographer Giuliano Bekor caught our eye, and he has a pretty strong portfolio. Make sure to check out Book 11 in his portfolio called Vintage Vegas...such wonderfully fun images!
