Naturally, I loved it!  Everything from the extravagant clothes to the opulent shoes!  Of course, my eye naturally goes toward the lingerie.  So I couldn’t resist trying to identify every piece.

In a scene early in the movie when Carrie is dining with Mr. Big, I immediately identified the La Fee Verte Infrared Peacock bra peeking out from under her dress!  So fitting for the fashion forward, Mrs. Bradshaw-Preston.  Because this fabulous bra is from the first collection of La fee Verte , it is only available in limited quantities at Catriona Mackechnie.  Stay tuned, however.  Based on popularity, this fabulous bra may be back.  We’ll be the  first to let you know!

The British/Colombian designer aims for combining quirky style and feminine glamour. Deborah began the business in the early 2000s with hand crafted pieces she made in her kitchen. She sold them all to Selfridges and they sold out within a week. From their, the brand took off with a lot of hard work from Deborah overseeing fabric prints, cuts, and manufacturing. Today, Pistol Panties can be found at Saks Fifth Avenue, Barneys, Selfridges, Villa Moda, and Deborah’s own store in Notting Hill. Deborah’s site suggests that Pistol Panties are available at Figleaves, but I couldn’t find them. I did find them at NYC’s Catriona Mackechnie and online here as well as Bordello in London and online here. Deborah is also running an online store.

Earlier this year, Debonair Magazine released a guide with the help of the New York boutique Catriona MacKechnie. Get the full article. Debonair’s guide covers

  • A Large Bum
  • Pear Shaped Women
  • Large Breasted Women
  • Plus Size
  • Slim Women
  • An Hourglass Figure

For the ladies with more booty, Catriona recommends a thong with some width to the back. For women with larger hips, Catriona recommends a chemise with sheer lace cups emphasizing the breasts. For the girl with a slightly larger tummy, a very short babydoll and matching low brief will show off a great pair of legs while subtly covering up her tummy and hips. If you have an hourglass figure, Catriona suggests a bustier. The full article not only covers other body types, but it also shares Catriona’s opinions of what not to buy for certain body types.

Pouvoir roughly translates to “power” in French. The rest of the translation is up to our astute TLP readers.

“Born into a family devoted to fashion, making beautiful clothing is Maurenice’s focus and drive. Under the watchful eye of her mother, Maurenice learned to sew at the age of five and by age seven, Maurenice was making her own clothes and tending daily to her mother’s women’s fashion store. When she moved to New York from the Dominican Republic she instantly fell in love with architecture and the fine arts. Today, she continues to draw inspiration for her designs from these early influences. Bisono commits her passion, expertise and skill in every lingerie collection she designs creating an innovative product that stands apart in the commercial marketplace. Her experience at luxury evening wear and ready-to-wear houses including Carlos Marquez, Christina Perrin, Jill Stuart and Anne Klein in the design and production arenas, contributes to the intricate cuts and patterns in the garments and the lingerie’s beautiful aesthetics. Maurenice currently resides in New York City and with her line Vagin Pouvoir, she is on a mission to empower women around the world.” (mini bio from Glamorous Amorous)

Unfortunately, it looks like the brand is no longer. The web site is currently in the hands of an adult-centric domain squatter (use caution to visit).

Some parts of the collection are still available from Glamorous Amorous and one size M knicker is at Nancy Meyer, but previous stockists (Catriona Mackechnie and Faire Frou Frou) are no longer carrying the brand.
