We’ve mentioned Lepel on The Lingerie Post before, but never in much detail and we haven’t really shown you many pictures. The Spring/Summer 2009 collection is a great time to amp up our coverage, with the perfectly spring-appropriate range full of fresh colors, airy and blossoming designs, delicate embroidery, and everyday casual styles. This new collection looks perfect to wear as everyday underwear – it’s not so fancy that you wouldn’t want to wear it during the day, but it’s still pretty enough that you’ll want someone to see you in it when you get home! With bras in sizes up to a G cup and panties up to size 18, almost everyone will be able to find something to fit and flatter. Here are some of my favorites:
First up, the Dusk style features oversized florals in lilac and midnight blue. The satin plunge bra makes a set with boyshorts or a thong.
Secret Garden is light and airy with delicate lace and ruffles adorned with an embellished floral design.
The fresh Sasha set includes a padded bra and boyshorts or a string in soft neutrals and energizing coral.
Firm favorite Athena is stylish and sweet with polka dots and soft scallops.
There are plenty of other new designs, so keep your eye on Figleaves UK, Debenhams, Bravissimo, House of Fraser, and Fenwicks, as well as your local boutique, to find your own favorite styles for spring!
Personally I think is one of the strongest collections from Lepel for a while. I don’t know if it’s just me but I’m definitely liking the darker pieces better than the pale white elements to the collection. What’s your preference Kelly?
It’s hard to say! That last set is one of my favorites, but otherwise I think I’m leaning towards the lighter-colored ones in this collection. I’m just SO ready for spring that seeing something so light and airy (like Sasha, especially) gets me excited!
You’ve got a point there! Looking at these with the Sun streaming in through the window, the light coloured pieces are actually starting to grow on me!
Come on Spring!!
We had a good look at the Lepel range at the Harrogate Lingerie Exhibition last August, and the “Dusk” set really does look as good “in the flesh” (so to speak) as it does in the image.
Very beautiful!That last set is one of my favorites, but otherwise I think I’m leaning towards the lighter-colored ones in this collection.
