Allumette is a french lingerie brand that, even though it’s official webpage is only in French, is selling more and more in the rest of the world. Because this brand is part of the Simone Pérèle group, it enjoys their distribution channels, which makes the brand available from boutiques all over the world and loads of online shops. That’s good news, considering the softness and delicasy in so many of their pieces… Fans of intimate lingerie in high-profile fabrics such as satin will love Allumette!
The Sevres collection is without doubt my favorite (even though their Venus line is extremely sexy too ;-)). I tested the Sevres three quarter cup underwired bra earlier this week and It (and I) looked very cute if I may say so myself. The high quality finishing is what you can expect from any decent brand, and the fabrics were obviously chosen to be as soft as possible. The matching thong wasn’t to my liking: the frilled sides mean you have to be quite skinny to make this thong work… I suggest going for the Allumette Sevres brief if you’re not a size 6 ;-).
The pictures speak for themselves. The Sevres line by Allumette is a fragile and feminine lingerie collection, that’s very fair in price. The bra is available at figleaves for $51, the brief is priced at $30.
