Founders Clare Thommen and Fiona McLean were down in London to collect the award and were ecstatic to have won.

“Being up against Harrods who have the most respected lingerie department in the UK and probably worldwide, we never thought as a young independent from Scotland we would actually win! It’s a huge credit to our team who have worked so hard to create what we have with Boudiche, and they should all be very proud. It’s a massive achievement for us all.”

Other Drapers 2009 winners include ASOS for E Tailer of the Year, H&M for Marketing Initiative of the year with their Matthew Williamson collaboration and Topshop BYC for Best New Store. Founder of New Look, Tom Singh received the Lifetime Achievement award.

Knickers of the Week by Stella McCartney

December 31, 2008 by Kelly

When I was a very little girl, some of my first sets of underwear were the days-of-the-week style. I distinctly remember being excited to pick out the correct day every morning, and I think they are part of what started my love of fun underpinnings! I’m sure many of you had the same experience – and if you want to relive your childhood delight, or if you simply love being organized, I’ve found the knickers for you! Stella McCartney released a “Knickers of the Week” set in the Autumn/Winter 2008 collection that revive our girlhood memories, complete with dainty ruffles and sweet embroidered flowers. The silk-blend knickers come in a complete seven-day pack, or an abbreviated weekend set. They would be an adorable gift in the dressing-drawer style packaging! Find your own at Net-A-Porter, Boudiche, or Journelle.

On the Lookout: Rigby and Peller (by Eveden)

May 24, 2008 by Rene

Last year, Rigby and Peller ended their fifteen year relationship with Eveden who manufactured the line for R&P.

There are also plans in the pipeline to reintroduce a Rigby & Peller lingerie brand following the recent end of an agreement with Eveden. However, when it does happen it will be exclusive to the shops and not available to wholesale. “The agreement with Eveden had worked well since 1993, but we both felt that it caused a little bit of confusion in the market place,” says Kenton. “We’re retailers first and foremost, but watch this space.” (Rigby Peller News)

Now is the time to pick up your bargains as stockists are clearing their inventories. Find deals from:

  • Lauren Silva
  • Undercover Experience
  • Figleaves UK (Not on sale yet)
  • Boudiche (Not on sale yet)

Fayreform Fall 2008 Update

May 9, 2008 by Krista

I recently had the opportunity to visit the Fayreform showroom and see all the pieces of the Fall collection up close and personal! I wanted to give you some additional information about the products (beyond my commentary about how beautiful the pieces are) since my last post.

Fayreform’s Fall collection is moving toward a more fashion forward look while retaining its signature sophistication. The brand refuses to settle for less than an impeccable fit for its full-cupped customers. Fayreform manages to blend both worlds by meeting subtle detailing with supportive construction.

One example of this intersection of fashion and fit is with the Perfection group. Lady like lace and rosettes adorn the balconette bra uniquely designed with 4 piece vertical cups that give added support ad lift. The Conceptual group is special as it presents Fayreform’s first plunge bra. Of course this amazing shape is complemented by something chic – eyelash lace (in Black or Crabapple Coral) against a nude lining. Pigment is an innovative group featuring a lightweight memory foam that conforms to your body to give you a flawless look. This contour bra is made of a simple, but elegant, diamond print satin.

Elaborate, perfect for the bride-to-be in ivory, features a sweet embroidery and a key hole detailing between the cups. A 3 piece vertical cup gives sexy silhouette. Smooth European stretch lace and rich, contrasting colors define the Figurative group, which also introduces the brand’s first boyleg brief – a cheeky alternative to the traditional brief.

Profile Perfect is the seamless staple (and a best seller) for Fayreform. Designed with you in mind, this bra is constructed to provide maximum support by dispersing the weight evenly between your back and shoulders.

Absolutely amazing! Find Fayreform at a number of retailers worldwide, including Nordstrom, Boudiche, Allens Stores and online at Bare Necessities and Blest Bras.
