Parah

New Parah Lingerie Collections at Nancy Meyer

November 9, 2009 by Mandolina

I’ve been a huge Parah lingerie fan for a while, and it’s been extremely tough for me to post about their new collections due to a lack of information available online… It’s the kind of label I would love everyone to at least try once, but outside of Europe it’s not that easy to get your hands on, even online. Luckily, Nancy Meyer did just add quite a few new pieces from Parah’s  winter ’09/’10 collection to their site at very reasonable prices considering the cheap dollar…

“Warmly seductive in satin python skin, these collections are utterly tempting, exotic and sexy. Sleek and smart, the neutral satin palette and dark chocolate accents complement every skin tone with animal-like intentions and Vegas style glamour.”

Photos thanks to Nancy Meyer – shopping at Nancy Meyer too, prices start at about $110 for bras, $75 for panties.

Parah Lingerie Kontatto Collection

April 18, 2008 by Mandolina

Excellent news for Parah-lovers like myself (my love for Parah has been established before, haha)! Luxury lingerie boutique Nancy Meyer has just added the brand new Parah Kontatto collection to their site and it’s super-pretty as ever.

“The animal prints are reinterpreted for spring with this tone-on-tone shimmering silk in a delicate hue of blush lavender. Bow accents soften the shape of this utterly feminine Italian lingerie line.”

Brand new Nancy Meyer website filled with goodies!

November 12, 2007 by Mandolina

Nancy Meyer WebsiteNancy Meyer is one of the bigger online luxury lingerie retailers, and off course that means them updating their entire website is news to us. So — today we take a look at the new Nancy Meyer website, and the improvements they’ve made! 🙂

First off all, they’ve kept the central position the designers have on their website. It’s super easy to browse through excellent labels such as La Perla, Eres, Wolford, Araks, Andres Sarda, Jean Yu, Janet Reger, John Galliano, Poet and many more! Again, that’s still Nancy Meyer’s strong point: the brands.

They have made searching their site a little easier.Carine Gilson Silk and Lace Camisole About a month ago, when they added the new I.D. Sarrieri, it took about a week for the items to appear in their searches — now, all seems to be working, even the latest collections. That’s so important, so well done! 😉

The most prominent update is the design. The website is even more pretty now, and still have that signature classy look. I enjoyed the simplicity of the Nancy Meyer website before — but browsing has only become simpler.

Check it out — and happy shopping! 😉 😀

CILA 2007

August 15, 2007 by Krista

The 2nd annual Contours International Lingerie Awards (CILA) were held in the Grand Ballroom at the exquisite Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York last Monday, August 6th. This gala event, celebrated and recognized the creativity and design within the intimate apparel industry. This brainchild of Contours publisher, Ben Yedder, also highlighted and honored the influence this industry has on mainstream fashion.The event featured over 80 designers from 8 countries competing in 19 different categories. An international panel of judges selected 5 finalists from each category whose designs were displayed in the runway show. The jury is composed not only of buyers and designers, but also consumers.

Upon entering the ballroom after a cocktail party, guests took their seats around the runway where models were already placed on stage wearing designs from the competitors. Following dinner, guests were treated to the runway show and the presentation of awards. The competition in each category was tough indeed, particularly in the Best Fashion and Best D+ competition. That one is closest to the heart, of course.

Perhaps what stood out in my mind the most, that many others attending the event also mentioned, is that women of all shapes and sizes were represented in the runway show.

One line, Best Plus Size award winner Tia Lyn (also appearing at the trade show), is an all-inclusive line that spans sizes small to 3x. This vintage inspired line features a variety of chemises, gowns, camisoles, and panties.

Also a contender for both Best Plus Size and Best D Plus finalist, Empreinte, is seeking to become more of a presence in the U.S. with its beautiful and well constructed pieces for fuller figure women. This 60 year old company based in France offers numerous options in sizing (up to a G cup) as well as high fashion and glamour. I am most impressed with the delicate embroidery and variety of moods the collection fits.

Other contenders for Best D Plus include my personal favorites, Panache and Elixir, Barbara, and the amazing Australian based line, Bendon. So expect more about some of those lines soon!

Best Fashion was probably my other just-can’t-pick-my-favorite category of the evening. With TLP favorites Marlies Dekkers, Madame V, Chantelle, and Elle MacPherson and one of my trade show finds, Lou, it was stiff competition! Lou will be debuting this fall with parts of the collection arriving in both September and November so check your local boutique. Perhaps my favorite part of the evening might have been when the team from Marlies Dekkers was accepting their award and shared their design philosopy. They design pieces to please women, but if it also happens to please men, then that’s great. I like their way of thinking!

Overall, it was a phenomenal evening of great food, great conversation, and GORGEOUS lingerie. You can drool over all the beautiful pieces like I did! See the video coverage of the show at Zoozoom.com.

Windy City Wonder

April 30, 2007 by Krista

Isabella Lingerie LogoI am always on the lookout for new great new sites. While researching my upcoming bridal piece (stay tuned), I stumbled upon Isabella Fine Lingerie. Open since 2000, this Chicago-based store claims to be home of the Boobologist! Word on the street says she’s amazing at identifying your true bra size, just by looking! Not in the Chicago area? You too can “get sized up” by sending in a photo of yourself and letting the Isabella In-Store Photoboobologist tell you your true size. Not sure you are a believer? She even sends you a coupon for $10 to test her work!

The Isabella site is easy to navigate and includes great extras like wardrobe solutions and a blog. The selection of sizes was impressive and quite a selection of designers is featured including Freya,boobologist Cosabella, Parah, and a brand new to me – Undrest. According to the blog, TLP favorite, The Lake and Stars, will be arriving in the store in the near future. And if all that isn’t exciting enough, Isabella also has the largest selection of Honeydew Intimates in the world!

From what I can tell, they have great sales and even a club membership. I strongly encourage the Chicago ladies to check it out and chat about it in our forums. The rest of us will have to take advantage of ordering online.
