For Luna: La Magia’s New Swimwear Site

June 20, 2009 by Mandolina

La Magia just launched a specialized retro swimwear e-boutique at www.forluna.co.uk. Here’s their press release:

Having enjoyed three fantastic years of growth with La Magia, we are thrilled to announce the launch of our new website, ForLuna.co.uk – specialising in high quality, branded retro-inspired and faux-vintage swimwear.

For Luna takes inspiration from a time when ladies carried themselves with grace and poise, whether by the pool or on the beach. We have chosen swimwear that has some kind of retro or vintage design element, whether it is a modern bikini with a retro-style print or a faithful reproduction of a 1950’s one-piece swimsuit.

Our two websites share the same key aim, to provide a unique selection of high quality garments to customers who appreciate classic style, and enjoy the glamour and elegance our pieces offer.

For Luna has been created with the same level of enthusiasm and passion that launched La Magia in 2006, and we are sure lots of La Magia’s customers will love our selection of swimwear. We are very much looking forward to introducing them to the new website.

For Luna ships globally and delivery is a flat rate of £2 per order, worldwide.

La Magia adds Little Minx & Elegantly Scant

April 6, 2009 by Mandolina

TLP favorite La Magia from the UK has announced two new Australian lingerie labels to be added to their already impressive list of brands. Both Little Minx and Elegantly Scant fit the e-boutique’s vintage and high-end style, and the first pieces from both labels have already made it into their store!

Little Minx

Little Minx is a very young Australian label, started in September ’08 by Ursula Dunne. A very “young” summer collection that offers a high-price look at very reasonable prices. Shop Little Minx at La Magia here.

Elegantly Scant

We’ve shown you some Elegantly Scant on TLP before — and we’re extremely excited to see this amazing label at La Magia. Boutique owner Vicki says: “Based in Sydney, Australia, this exclusive label crafts its own distinct handwriting and personality into every piece. From the simplest bow and tiniest frill to the sweet sway of satin, ultimately it’s the little finishes that set the label apart”. Shop Elegantly Scant at La Magia here.

Kiss Me Deadly Autumn/Winter 2008 Collection at La Magia

August 17, 2008 by Mandolina

The Autumn/Winter 2008 collection from Kiss Me Deadly is available for pre-order at www.LaMagia.co.uk. This new collection is Kiss Me Deadly at its best, sensual, subversive, dark and feminine. Ranges are as follows:

Van Mimi

Introducing the breathtaking new centrepiece of the Autumn/Winter 2008 Kiss Me Deadly collection, this was inspired by an haute couture bra from the 50’s. Made from eyelash and floral lace with satin contour panelling, it features a velvet ribbon lace up effect.

The midi bra and skirted basque have underwired, lined lace cups with padded satin sides, waist shaping reinforcement, and velvet ribbon trim. The basque also has a lace skirt, plastic boning and six detachable suspender straps with metal clips and satin ribbons.

The matching deep suspender belt has six wide straps and a centre non-stretch panel crisscrossed with velvet ribbon. The matching lace brief and thong have the same effect at the rear. Finally there is a lace short-sleeved bolero or bed jacket – this is just beautiful and perfect as evening wear to dress up an outfit or give modesty to a low cut top or corset. This set comes in sizes S, M, L and XL, 32-36 B-DD, and 38C-DD for the bra and the basque.

Sirena

Back in a new colourway we have the stunning Sirena from Kiss Me Deadly, one of the fastest selling designs we have ever known! Available for Autumn/Winter 2008 in sumptuous black satin with intricate black lace, this is a seriously desirable range. Limited numbers are available and this will sell out quickly.

The Sirena bra has a padded demi cup with a ruched lace overlay, with a wide, swooping satin strap straight from 40’s style icons and finished with delicate eyelash lace on the cups and contrasting ivory bow to the centre. The straps are, of course, fully adjustable and the back closes with standard hook and eye closure. E cups and 38 back sizes feature a flat lace overlay on the cups to provide support and fit for larger busts.

The 6-strap suspender has the same gorgeous lace detailing, as do the briefs and thong thatcomplete the range. The bra is available in sizes 32 and 34 A-E, 36B-E, and 38 C-E. All the other items are available in sizes S, M, L and XL.

Emerald Alouette

Alouette in emerald is another limited edition design from Kiss Me Deadly, designed for Autumn/Winter 2008. The padded plunge underwired bra is the same shape as the Alouette in Gold, giving a wonderfully uplifted cleavage to all bust sizes. Every girl needs a push-up bra and this is one of the best we have seen. Featuring geometric lace over a rich and elegant emerald green satin.

With all the finishing touches we know to expect from Kiss Me Deadly, chiffon bows, adjustable back and straps and wider straps for larger bust sizes. Matching 6-strap suspender, briefs and thong available.
The bra is available in 32, 34 and 36 B-DD and 38C-DD. All the other items are available in sizes from S, M, L and XL

Limited Edition Vargas Dress

Another bestseller for La Magia in previous colourways, Vargas combines flattering vintage coverage and shaping techniques with modern prints, colours and convenience. Can be worn beneath your clothes for smooth and discreet foundation wear, but unlike other control wear it is sexy enough to be worn in the bedroom. We defy any woman to wear this and not feel sexy, it is sensational! It has 6 integrated suspender straps with the all-important metal clasps to make sure your stockings stay up!

Unlike a corset there are no bones, and you can roll it on and then fasten the bra section. Its double layer mid section gives a superb waist and silhouette, and the bra is lace over mesh with a strap that elegantly swoops from the base to the shoulder. This style needs to be fitted to your bra size, and the 38’s have a concealed zip at the back for ease of fit. This style needs to be fitted to your bra size, available from 32 to 36 B–DD and 38 C–DD.

Kiss Me Deadle Vargas

Kiss Me Deadly had so many requests for something simple and versatile to mix and match with their other items, so here it is; a retro bra and brief set in sheer black mesh. The only thing it won’t go with is their white items, but even that depends on what else you were planning to wear!

The bra cups are underwired and lined, with no padding. There are of course adjustable straps, and the decoration is simple with just a scattering of bows. The briefs are more a bikini style than the usual shorty, and on this occasion they’ve put the bow at the front. The bra is available in 32, 34 and 36 B-DD and 38C-DD. All the other items are available in sizes from S, M, L and XL
