Mimi Holliday Lingerie Autumn/Winter 2009

August 25, 2009 by Bert

Great news for Mimi Holliday fans: the Autumn/Winter ’09 collection is finished, and available for order. Obviously – we’re here to show you the range, with info and pics thanks to FairyGothMother!

The Belle Amour nude silk bra has a layer of pretty black lace which ruffles under the bustline, which matches perfectly with their trademark flirty peep-hole hipster boyshorts, in luxuriously comfortable black stretch lace and nude silk. The nude theme is continued in their Snowdrop set, featuring a balconette bra with gathered silk chiffon and French lace overlay, finished with a cute pale peach silk bow in the centre, again with a matching hipster peep-bole boyshort, this time in nude lace with a silk waistband.

The scarlet Rosada oozes glamour and sex appeal, and the silk chiffon and thick lace which delicately decorates the cleavage will make you feel a million dollars. This is the perfect lingerie set for the temptresses amongst us, especially when worn with the matching bow-back chiffon thong, red lipstick and sky-high heels! And ooh, shiny – the Zepherine with its plunge padded bra and matching sheer-back knickers is for all disco divas. In black silk chiffon with a sprinkling of sequins, this set catches the light beautifully.

And what better way to welcome in the warm weather than to update your lingerie wardrobe! I recently stopped by Journelle and was greeted by so many beautiful pieces for Spring!

Like Mimi Holliday? A little dissapointed because we haven’t had pics of the Fall/Winter ’08-’09 collection on the blog? Your day has come! Glamorous Amorous has just added the line to their webshop and it’s all very pretty (especially the polka-dotted Petrus balcony bra!).

Fabulicious – New Online Lingerie Boutique

July 3, 2008 by Mandolina

Fabulicious is a brand new online lingerie boutique (check it out at fabulicious.fr), and we decided to ask shop owner Jeannette Smith a couple questions… 😉

Q: Why did you decide to start your own lingerie boutique on the net?
A: I have been passionate about lingerie since I can remember, but probably at the tender age of 15 I seriously started to care! I was never a big fan of lingerie shops although the shops as such can be gorgeous but for me, no cold boutique changing cabins… pitiless mirrors, shop assistants that tend to open the curtain while you are still standing there half naked trying to pull things over your hips…(I am sure there are some lovely sales ladies out there I just have never met one yet…) really traumatised me, trying on the delicious new garments with a glass of Champagne (or tea) & Candle light at home just made me become a passionate internet shopper!

My best friend being from London – and a big lingerie fan herself – helped me discover some very beautiful frilly lingerie delights from Uk designers and I just wanted to put together a selection of Must-Have items that I would love for myself and for my friends! So I thought why not taking it to the next level and open my own site with my favourite “lingerie artists”. I am a fulltime-working Mum (in the music business) and have been doing this on the side, but hopefully soon I can concentrate fully on all those glamorous Lingerie delights!

Q: What brands do you carry and which are your favorites?
A: I have selected my brands over a period of time and “hand picked” the items I sell! I discovered some amazing designers at the Paris Lingerie salon 2008 (at the Spicy Garden) and through blogs like The Lingerie Post.

I wanted suppliers that were not easy or obvious to find in France and it was a question of falling in love with the lingerie pieces.

The brands I carry are: Ophelia Fancy (my little favourite, designed by the lovely Stevi Jelbart and Emma Sandham-King), Miss La La, Ell & Cee, Carmen Gonzales (coming soon), some fun pieces from Carol Malony, I could not find Mimi Holliday on French sites and though it was so very gorgeous, I also supply Playful Promises and Odille which I thought have very beautiful pieces for a reasonable price, coming soon is Maya Hansen (amazing corsetry) and I just discovered the fabulous Vintage Opulence that I will show on my site very soon.

Q: Where do you hope to be a year from now, business-wise?
A: I hope in a years time things will have taken off and I can still be there and do what I love: run my fabulicious, delicious, utterly sexy online lingerie boutique!!

We wish her the best of luck, and will keep all of you updated with Fabulicious news!
