An Update from Playful Promises

Phew! Playful Promises is breathing a sigh of relief now the crazy busy trade show period has finally come to an end. After weeks of preparation, getting postcards sent to our customers, and making sure we had all of the samples for our new collection to show off, we started our trade show tour at [...]

Nuits De Satin Lingerie

After successfully exhibiting at the Salon International de la Lingerie in January, Nuits de Satin is offering this Flash based catalog. (See below for another catalog). The brand only seems to be sold through their own store fronts that are mainly found in Paris, but with locations in major cities throughout the world.
Pictures from the [...]

Ambra Lingerie @ Salon International de la Lingerie

I took quite a few shots of these Ambra pieces from the Italian défilé at the Salon International de la Lingerie, and I have to say the crowd seemed to enjoy it. The exclusive hand-made lingerie label is new to TLP, but I’m sure Mandolina will soon zoom in on them some more. Until then, [...]

Award Winning Carol Malony

While at the Curve NY show, I was able to see the always sassy and stylish Carol Malony collections – Carol Malony Signature

There are a number of other collections in this group I am eager to see in stores this Fall! “Enchanted” follows a unique, Carol Malony trend of matching muted colors with a [...]

Valentine’s Day at Liaison Dangereuse

A couple of weeks into our boutique and things develop really well! Funny, how different products sell in each channel. The internet is definitely more specialist or more simple. It sounds contradictory but what we see is, that people seem to look either for the special stuff, that doesnt sell at every corner, or [...]

Denny Rose Lingerie Fall/Winter 2008-2009

Denny Rose, an Italian fashion house, showed only this one set on the catwalk in Paris during the Salon de la lingerie according to Bert (who attended the show, so I guess he knows)– but seeing the pics I like it a lot. Pretty polka dots make the look very pretty and girly — lovely! [...]

And God Created Woman: Best New Talent…

I’m still buzzing from the Paris Lingerie show… It was fantastic just to be part of such a great event but I got really lucky and was awarded ‘Best New Talent’ – a fabulous boost for the brand and for me (pictured at the show below).

The new brands recognized with the award were:

And God Created [...]

Patrick & Skinner: From Paris with Love

What a deliciously busy start to the New Year, I am yet to exhale since it has begun and am still learning daily lessons in branding, marketing, and design. Birthing Patrick & Skinner has been more valuable in gaining knowledge than any lecture I have attended. Now it is truly born, I must nurture, love [...]

The 7 Colors of Fashion – Salon de la lingerie Forum

For this new edition, the Salon International de la Lingerie Forum proposed a reflection on lingerie colors. For each color there is a style, a trend, even an age. The forum’s concept was to work from a colour to develop a feeling, materials, a fashion and a collection. Merchandising ideas were also included to differentiate [...]

Ritratti Lingerie Spring/Summer 2008

Just got a big shipment of high resolution photos from Ritratti’s latest Spring/Summer collection in my mailbox — and obviously I’m here to not only share, but also show you my own little favorites from the SS08 collection of last year’s “designer of the year” winner at the Salon International de la Lingerie.
Overall, [...]

Lejaby Lingerie Fall/Winter 2008 Preview!

Straight from the catwalk of Paris’ Salon international de la lingerie last week — photos of two Lejaby Fall/Winter 2008-2009 pieces in anything but boring winter colors! No Bert-bashing, but obviously there’s one professional photo and eight somewhat less professional ones, but I’m loving the fact that we get a chance to show [...]

Selmark lingerie catwalk in Paris

You know what — I wasn’t really impressed with Selmark’s pieces in this previous post we made about them (the Bar Rafaeli one for our regulars), but seeing the photos of the catwalk show at the Salon international de la lingerie in Paris, I am now looking forward to the rest of their Autumn/Winter 2008/2009 [...]
