Skin is a NYC based lingerie design shop headed up by Susan Beischel. Susan perceived a void in the lingerie marketplace around cotton garments. “Most cotton lingerie out there was either too mature, or too juvenile. I wanted to create a more sophisticated fashionable look that women could wear more often.” Susan is not only the originator of the brand, but she runs the business, and is the head designer. She has some peers in Gentry Lane from Gentry de Paris, Guia La Bruna, and Igor Pacemski from Yes, Master.

Skin runs two boutiques in New York at Piermont and Westhampton Beach. The brand is also carried by some select stockists including Barneys, Le Bon Marche, Drawer (Japan), and International Orange (San Francisco). Figleaves carries a few of the sleepwear pieces from Skin. Susan has more pieces than are shown on Figleaves including these pieces:


Susan’s signature pima cotton bra is priced at $65. She doesn’t do commerce through her web site, but she is happy to take your order at info@skinlingerie.com. Photos are courtesy of Skin Lingerie.

She says her Afterwear collection is “lingerie and loungewear designs with a touch of feminine street attitude.” Her Afterwear collection is found mostly in boutiques and online (from boutiques offering ecommerce). The boutiques are in Denmark, Iceland, Spain, Japan, and Coco De Mer in the US and UK, as well as Misty Beethoven in Italy and Barneys in NYC. Signe thinks that her collection can provide “the sensation of wellness and feminine luxury after bed; after bath; after work… it’s underwear that’s too good to hide.”

The latest collection of Afterwear, Signe’s lingerie line, is inspired by tales from the Arabian Nights – 1001 erotic, grotesque and sensual tales about warm desert winds, dark blue nights, hidden treasures, mystic creatures, lust, vengeance and love. life is carbon

Afterwear is more than tinged with a sense of the past. The pieces are hand stitched and can be embellished with antique metals, feathers, ribbons, and lace. A video (mp4) is available from United Pictures showing a collection from Afterwear.

Autumn/Winter 07 is Mimi’s most mature and sophisticated collection yet, in subtle colours, which designer Damaris Turtle says is ‘friendly to everyone’. However, as always each story includes that trademark edge, which sets the label apart from the rest. There’s a splash of vibrant coral silk, sophisticated black silk chiffon with black polka dot velvet flocking, ingenious thong and boy short designs, and a new ultra low cut bra in black lace. Each bra is available with a knicker, boy short and thong.

As you may remember from back in April, I’m a big fan of the Playful Promises lingerie, and these pieces just confirm my beliefs: PP is in the top-5 of my favorite brands — and will remain there at least for 12 more months. ;)

Obviously I got my hands on some early photos (by jameslightbown.co.uk) — and they look so sexy — I’m sure you’ll melt just like I did. Enjoy, more info soon on the Playful Promises website, — for now it’s still showing the excellent Alice’s Party collection in stores right now (get it at Barneys, Patricia Field, Henri Bendels, Luxe LA, …)!

Try Sexy Panties and Naughty Knickers, a London based line by Pom Lampson, former British Vogue photographer, which recently debuted in the US this past spring. The collection is stylish and sexy, but also comfy. And isn’t that what we are all looking for?

I find the women’s cotton boxer so playful, fun, and flirty. Made of 100% cotton and trimmed in lace, these cozy panties epitomize comfort. The simple bows on the side add an additional girly flair. Paired with the cotton vest, this set is perfect for a Sunday afternoon around the house.

Spank Flirt ThongThe quintessential Sexy Panties and Naughty Knickers item, however, seems to be the Flirt thong.

Available in white, hot pink, and black, this thong features a delicate ruffle trim and flaunts “S-P-A-N-K” on the back! Spank Flirt ThongThe brief has the same features, but offers a little more coverage and is available in a few additional colors. This staple element can be paired with a variety of other items in the collection including the simple, silky sash vest or the Flirt bra.

The collection features many other celebrity favorite panties and knickers and even camis, nighties, and dressing gowns. You’ll have to check all of them out on the Sexy Panties and Naughty Knickers website. And larger busted ladies, never fear. While the Flirt bra may not meet your needs, the underwire bra is available in sizes through FF! And the gentlemen are not left out either. The men’s cotton boxer (with silk lined fly) is an Orlando Bloom favorite!

So now you might be wondering, where can I get my hands on these? How can I experience the luxury that Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Moss, and Sienna Miller among others have enjoyed? Try the website or Figleaves (US or UK). There are also a number of stockists in the UK. In the US, SPANK is available at Barneys, Bendels, and La Petite Coquette. Check your local boutique as the collection is quickly infiltrating boutiques around the country!

Happy shopping!
