The brand’s pride is its focus on innovation (an almost technological approach to lingerie) in the shapes and the materials used. Still, the label claims to have come up with a collection that can bring comfort and sophistication to the day to day wear.

Designers Monica and Simone Zaslawski surely put quite a lot of personality into these first pieces, and I appreciate that. In their words: “Everything we do is to attain one sole purpose: give women power, confidence and awaken her desires.”

The Le Pink site introduces the label as follows:

“With over twenty years of existence, combined with high quality and unique design, the Le Pink brand brings the exciting concept of romance and charm to make our lingerie something special. Le Pink offers consumers a way to wear gorgeous brazilian lingerie, with inspiration from the European lingerie world and the quality demanded by women worldwide.”

I’m doing my best to try and track down a set so I can give it a go – because I love (LOVE!) the designs…

I lived in Brasilia for two years (before this event came to fruition) and I’ve got news for you: even though Brazilians are thought to be beautiful creatures that walk around in their tiny bikinis all day, this is so not true, especially not in Brasilia, which is hours away from a single beach, so I was very surprised to learn about this event!

On February 9th at about 2:00 p.m., the 50 models marched past one of the city’s largest malls and then took down the escalator into Brasilia’s main bus terminal, which is about as packed as Times Square. Sound kind of familiar? That’s because the event is a reflection of the Freshpair’s National Underwear Day, which we always cover on TLP.

According to a Brazilian newspaper, the event was sponsored by fashion magazine Finíssimo in celebration of Brasilia’s 50th birthday. “We had 50 models wearing intimate apparel in tones of black and gray with futuristic make-up and hair. All of this, to represent the city’s unique architecture and urbanism,” said Thiago Malva, executive director of Finíssimo. (Fun fact: Brasilia is shaped like an airplane, and parts of the city are named North Wing and South Wing. When the city was built 50 years ago, everything was strategically planned to be super functional and futuristic. There are buildings practically suspended in the air and the roads are designed to minimize bumper-to-bumper traffic.)

Check out images from the event and some footage below!

They remind me of Guess during the 1980s and 1990s. They lead the collection with a selection of denim. Unlike Guess during those early years, stone wash and acid wash are trends that Forum doesn’t have to bother with. The denim lines currently feature many crisp whites and natural tones.

In addition to their denim lines, Forum also offers branded apparel like glasses and lingerie. The lingerie isn’t taking a lot of chances, but it does look modern and appropriate for the Forum demographic (from the pictures, it appears to be under 28).



Forum offers flagship stores throughout Brazil. Outside of Brazil, they have spotty global representation. Some countries carry the brand through department stores while other countries just have a listed distributor. It is hard to say how the current economic climate will affect Forum’s expansion plans, but I’m sure they are looking for other relationships.

Forum’s website is at www.forum.com.br. The corporate site is in Flash and is a little awkward to navigate. Pictures are from Forum.

The sisters graduated with degrees in Fine Arts and masters in Marketing. They spent years working for various fashion and lingerie companies in Brazil and France. The sisters decided there was a market for high end lingerie in Brazil and began the company in 1994.

The duo produces two distinct product lines: Opera Diva and Grand Finale. The Opera Diva has several collections and is the vehicle for Fruit’s fine lingerie products. Grand Finale has fewer collections and is mostly ‘comfortable’ sleepwear. I’m entranced by the Opera Diva line. It has so many great pieces.




Fruit de la Passion has around 10 company stores around Brazil. I don’t think you can buy these pieces online yet, but I hope the sisters offer an e-commerce offering soon. This is the store in Rio de Janeiro

They have two lines: a lingerie line and a sleepwear line. The lingerie line is well photographed, but only contains a handful of pieces. The sleepwear line is mostly cotton pieces with chemises and pajamas. The company also produces a few pieces for men — mostly boxers.


The company sells their product through branded stores scattered throughout Brazil. Currently, I can’t find any e-commerce options, so this is another Brazilian brand experienced mostly by residents and worldly travelers.

Each line contains about 10 pieces consisting of bras, knickers, basques, camisoles, and strings. Each line also comes in various colours making for a fairly large collection. Permita-SE is based in Brazil and I haven’t found these pieces outside of that country. The collection is well photographed. The pieces look well made. I wish I could easily get the pieces in the northern hemisphere. There is no English version of the corporate site nor links to online shops.

Objet du Désir lingerie is a romantic, sensual and exclusive line created by the French / Brazilian trio Philippine Bigorie, Melissa Monteiro and Deborah Ribeiro. All pieces are designed and handmade in Brazil, in limited quantities, using high quality materials. The end result is a comfortable line with exquisite pieces to be worn on special occasions or daily. The line’s pieces range in size from small to extra large hoping to bring more sensuality to women of all body types who appreciate great lingerie. New items are launched every month at the Ipanema showroom.

These pictures are from the Objet du Désir website. The look books are dated from 2006 and 2007. I can’t find a 2008 look book and I hope the company is doing well. The designs remind me of Mimi Holiday from Damaris. There are plenty of big bows on knickers and gathered fabrics with contrasting trim. There are also plenty of triangle bras which don’t usually work well with larger busts, so I’m not sure how well the company is doing with their goal of addressing a large range of sizes. The collection also includes intriguing one piece camisole/bodysuits with a built in suspender.

Thais graduated from Anhembi Morumbi University and started her brand in 1996 selling handmade designs in alternative stores. Her first brand name store opened a couple of years later and her brand continued to grow. She added lingerie by the early 2000s.



Thais Gusmão has created several cooperative editions including designs for Barbie and Adidas. This year, to commemorate the international day of women, Gusmão created a special Wonder Woman collection with the cooperation of Warner Brothers. The Wonder Woman collection consists of robes, shirts, bras, and knickers using comic book reprints and pop art celebrating the American superhero.


The pieces are available from her brand name stores (mostly in Brazil). Photos courtesy of Thais Gusmão. Visit the site at http://www.thaisgusmao.com.br.
