Playful Promises: Shanghai Boudoir Fall 2009

November 20, 2009 by Marissa

Emma Parker is the designer behind the Playful Promises lingerie brand and she does not disappoint with her Fall 2009 collection. The mood of the collection is Shangahi Boudoir, described as, “Be seduced by the sophisticated romance of 1920’s Shanghai. Reflecting the explosion of creativity, within the decadence of this sparkling city, and oozing with style and glamour, this collection salutes the clash on conformity and creativity that defines the golden days of Shanghai.”

Highlights of her collection include a provocative cut-out embellished high waisted briefs, the Nu Nu Rouge chemise (pictured above) and adorable silk corsages bra and panty set.

Playful Promises Stock Stolen – Can You Help?

October 10, 2008 by Mandolina

playful promisesPlayful Promises designer Emma is devastated after a very large portion of their stock was stolen from a warehouse — and they’re hoping to track it down with the help of the industry. Here’s the message she sent out:

Hi all,

We have had a break in at our storage at 219 Bow Rd in London and had 8000 units of our current collection A/W stolen last night. The police are investigating but if anyone is approached with Playful Promises stock that is not direct from us or sees it for sale in any unlikely places like markets over the weekend please urgently inform us so I can pass the info onto the police as you can image this has a phenomenal wholesale value and is a major problem for our small business.

Sorry for the impersonal nature of the email and it has gone out to almost everyone in my address book but I have a feeling the stock is going to show up in markets or sold in bulk for a discount as it would be quite hard to shift 8000 units of distinctive stock and feel the best chance of recovering it is by alerting as many people as possible who might see it floating about.

Thanks,
Emma

Photos of the styles stolen are right here.

Playful Promises Alice’s Party @ LM

August 16, 2007 by Mandolina

Playful Promises Alices Party G-String MademoiselleFirst: if you’re not a long-time reader of TLP, make sure to check out this post about Playful Promises, and this one about their upcoming SS08 collection. I adore all of these, but obvioulsy we were a bit early with our coverage; the Doll Face pieces aren’t in the shops yet, and the Alice’s Party (winter collection) is only now available… Which is the whole point of this post:Playful Promises Mademoiselle Bra La Magia, who took a Playful Promises break some time ago, restocked PP, and now have a large stock of the Alice’s Party collection on their excellent website!

What’s so great about these pieces is the overall package. It’s one of my all time favorite collections, simply because of the stunning eye for detail, the excellent design — and the fact that those elements are combined with affordable price tags.Playful Promises Camille Bra That’s so awesome! This breathtaking Mademoiselle Bra, for example, is one of the most adorable little numbers I’ve seen in a long time. It’s available at La Magia for just £30. That’s $60 for a designer cheeky designer bra — beat that!

I know, I sound biased. I am biased. I love Playful Promises. You will too after checking the photos. Happy shopping! 😉

Playful Promises Lingerie Spring/Summer 2008

August 6, 2007 by Mandolina

Just got word from Emma Benham about the Playful Promises Spring Summer 2008 lingerie collection, called Doll Face. As you may remember from back in April, I’m a big fan of the Playful Promises lingerie, and these pieces just confirm my beliefs: PP is in the top-5 of my favorite brands — and will remain there at least for 12 more months. 😉

Obviously I got my hands on some early photos (by jameslightbown.co.uk) — and they look so sexy — I’m sure you’ll melt just like I did. Enjoy, more info soon on the Playful Promises website, — for now it’s still showing the excellent Alice’s Party collection in stores right now (get it at Barneys, Patricia Field, Henri Bendels, Luxe LA, …)!
