Heidilicious!



Heidi Klum is the face of photographer Rankin's newly published book titled Rankin's Heidilicious. The two have worked together over the past several years and the multitude of his photographs of Heidi are an expression of what she really is like. From the 20 or so pictures we've seen in the book, there are a lot of shots of Heidi topless, or covered in chocolate. We were hoping for more pin-up or lingerie...
We have a feeling that our favorite image is the one at the top of this post!

Lingerie Noir

Lara Stone by Paolo Roversi
Vogue Italy, images via here


In this 'Style Noir' shoot by Paolo Roversi, Lara Stone models several lingerie looks for Vogue Italy. This is essentially a look you can create by simply pairing stockings with a garter &/or garter brief, and then style your hair and make-up accordingly!
The lingerie in this shoot is an assortment of Dolce & Gabbana, La Perla, Agent Provocateur (hosiery) and What Katie Did (one of our faves that we plan on getting more stock!).

Have a fun weekend! We hope you get a chance to wear your favorite intimates!

Victoria Beckham in UK Harper's Bazaar

It seems like more and more editorials are featuring lingerie-inspired looks, so it only seems natural to see it featured in the December issue of UK Harper's Bazaar! Considering that we weren't fans of Victoria Beckham's Armani lingerie ads, we are pleased with the outcome of this shoot. From what we can gather, the lingerie in these images are a combination of vintage and Dolce & Gabbana and What Katie Did. Much like our last post (with the ballgowns), these pictures were taken in such a decadent, beautiful setting!
PS - We like the idea that the 2-tone hosiery makes your legs appear smaller. We might give those a try!

All I Can See is Lingerie

Lara Stone by Mario Testino for Vogue UK, styled by Lucinda Chambers


What's so funny is that when I first looked at these gorgeous gowns, all I could see is what great lingerie each piece would make. At the root of each piece is a beautiful bra, don't you agree? Actually, the first gown is quite obviously topped with a guepiere, but the other dresses have a definite lingerie-inspired bodice. Or perhaps I just have lingerie on the brain!
Lingerie aside, what a gorgeous setting for this photo shoot. Of course we would expect nothing less from the great Mario Testino!

Chantal Thomass - Fall 2009

images from Chantal Thomass Fall 2009 collection

If you have traveled to Paris, undoubtedly you have seen or shopped at the Chantal Thomass lingerie boutique. Chantal's landmark store showcases her semi-annual collections, including the gorgeous Fall/Winter pieces shown above. We particularly love that she teamed with famed photographer Bruno Dayan to create the dazzling images at the top of this post. In fact, you can view the 'making of' video on the Chantal Thomass website documenting the photo shoot with Dayan (these videos always make us appreciate the images even more).
We wish we offered Chantal Thomass at Faire Frou Frou again, but sadly it is no longer available in the U.S. Perhaps you will just have to take a trip to Paris to pick up some of the latest pieces...not a bad reason to travel!
