Stella McCartney to release first lingerie collection in February 2008

January 27, 2008 by Kelly

Stella McCartney will debut her first lingerie collection next month! The popular British designer is pairing with Bendon, the New Zealand-based company that handles Elle Macpherson Intimates, will launch her Spring/Summer ’08 line at Neiman Marcus in mid-February.McCartney talks about her inspiration, which started at an early age:

“I was obsessed with French slips, lace inlays and handwork. When I think about lingerie, I tend to think of really handmade precious pieces. … The intimacy that a woman has with her lingerie is quite inspiring.”

The collection will include feminine bras, briefs, bodysuits, and chemises with prices ranging from $45 to $325. All of the pieces have sweet and girly names, like Daisy Dreaming, Eve Giggling, Mia Winking and Coco Blushing. Apparently McCartney is following the same aesthetic as her outerwear – frilly, coquettish, and super sweet!

Lingerie Americas – Fashion Forward

October 16, 2007 by Krista

This is my last of the Lingerie Americas series. Now, we’ll start seeing these exciting findings in the stores! Here’s the latest for those of you who like their lingerie flirty, fun, and high fashion. I am definitely a fan of Carol Malony. Beautifully feminine and fashionable, I adore the “Haute” collection. Such unique color choices and combinations make every piece absolutely stunning. For instance, my favorite, “Barely There,” features delicate tulle and lace, but with a pop of bling! Small stones adorn each piece. The straps and string of the thong provide an unexpected splash of color, in a vibrant salmon. A similar splash of color is featured in the elegant, “Hope Chest” collection. A cool ice blue stretch chiffon wtih sheer, ivory embroidery is accented with a punch of lime.

Collections feature bras, thongs, garters, corsets, and babydolls among other sexy little numbers. Look for these in the stores just in time for spring! In the meantime, check out the current Carol Malony pieces at Graffiti Pink and Gigi’s Closet online. Also, check Saks, Bloomingdales, and Neiman Marcus.

Go Commando

May 7, 2007 by Krista

Back in November, we told you all about one of my personal favorites, Commandos. You will be excited to know that these comfortable, invisible, lingerie drawer essentials now come in a slew of colors. During my visit to Saks Fifth Avenue, I found the “Candy Commandos.”. Very cute and individually packaged, these Commandos are in delectable colors such as pink taffy, gobstopper blue, and lemon drop! After looking at the website (which you should check out for the other incredible wardrobe solutions), I also noticed the superstar and camo patterns. Fun for everyone!

till not a thong girl even though these are super comfortable, Commandos also come in the girlshort and the new c.y.a. You can figure it out.

For those of you interested, they also have slips, camis, and tanks.

Commandos are available on the Her Look website as well as online retailers such as Figleaves and Bare Necessities and stores including Saks, Bloomingdales, and Neiman Marcus.

And yes, I agree with the people at Commando. It’s better than nothing.
