New Garter Belts and Girdles from Secrets In Lace

October 2, 2008 by Kelly

When we showed you Secrets In Lace’s new pink and red bullet bras, we promised that matching garter belts and open bottom girdles were on their way. Good news – they are now available! I’ve suggested Secrets In Lace garter belts several times in the forums because I love them so much; they really are the best I’ve ever tried because they do their job well and look great while doing it. That’s all you could ask for, right? These new garter belts are no exception, as they look stunning paired with the unique bullet bras. I particularly love the red – the vibrant color just jumps right out at you! In the US, autumn is coming and it’s time to bring my stockings out on a regular basis again. Of course that means that it’s time to get a few new garter belts. The hard part is going to be deciding which one of these to get!

The Coquette Waist Cincher has a high waist, front closure, and light shaping. The Coquette Open Bottom Girdle is 15 inches with a nylon lace front panel and circling bands for gentle shaping. The Jessica Garter Belt is a pull-on design made for comfort, and is only available in pink. Of course it’s never a good sight to have your backseams twisted around, so all of these have 6 straps for the superb security.

Secrets In Lace Stocking Update

Secrets In Lace Vintage Dot RHT in copperWe have some quick news from TLP favorite Secrets In Lace! One of the most popular stockings offered by the company, the Vintage Dot RHT (reinforced heel and toe) styles, now come in even more varieties to keep everyone happy. Previously offered with a standard welt, these stockings now also come with the option of a pretty and elegant lace top. You can also get them now with a backseam (my favorite stocking style!).

The biggest change, however, may be the new color option! You can now buy your Vintage Dot RHT stockings in a versatile copper color, created by Secrets In Lace because of popular demand from you! Be sure to get your pair before the next wedding you attend this summer – what a perfect way to bring some interest to your outfit (and encourage glances at your gorgeous legs)!

Review: Secrets In Lace Garter Belt

January 19, 2008 by Kelly

Secrets In Lace Dominique Garter Belt and Bullet BraI went into this review unsure of what to expect. I had heard so many good things about Secrets In Lace garter belts, and I have been looking for a real, quality garter belt. The ones I already have just were not doing the job of standing up to a night out, and I was tired of being disappointed. Still, I have never really been drawn to any six-strap garter belt. Most seem big and utilitarian. When I asked Secrets In Lace for advice, they offered to send theirĀ Dominique garter belt for me to try, and I am thrilled to report back that this is one of the best pieces of lingerie I’ve worn in a long time! I feel enlightened in a way that can only be compared to the way I felt the first time I bought a real quality bra in my correct size. I can tell that this is a start of a new lingerie addiction for me, and I’m excited!

As soon as the package arrived at my door, I raced to try on my new garter belt. I looked in the mirror, and was relievedSecrets In Lace Dominique Garter Belt and pleased to find that it didn’t feel big or utilitarian at all! I felt very glamorous and classic (and secretly, I decided that it looks even better on me than it does on the model). I wore it out the very next night with Secrets in Lace’s Signature RHT (reinforced heel and toe) nylon stockings. I was thrilled to find that the both the stockings and garter belt stood up to a full night of walking, sitting, and climbing on a bar’s arcade games (as glamorous as I felt, the kid in me still found it impossible to resist those games!). I was absolutely comfortable all night, and not once did I Secrets In Lace Dominique Garter Beltworry about anything slipping or being out of place. The garter belt has a five secure hook and eye closures, and three columns for adjustment (like your bras). The metal garter grips didn’t move a bit once I secured them, and were a snap to adjust. I loved the little details worked into this supportive garter belt, like the hold-down threads that keep the ribbons in place. Honestly, I cannot think of one thing I disliked about my Dominique garter belt! In fact, as soon as I’m done writing this article I’m going to order the Intrigue, which is made from the same pattern. I can’t have only one of these in my wardrobe!

I fell just as hard for the stockings I wore with the belt. The vintage-style 100% nylon stockings are silky smooth, sheer, andSecrets In Lace Nylon Stockings made my legs look amazing! The ones I wore were the Secrets In Lace Signature RHT stockings, which are produced on a circular loom (so there is no backseam). If you want even more retro glamour, you can try their fully fashioned stockings, which I discussed in a previous article. One consideration when wearing nylon stockings is to realize that there is no lycra or spandex. Nailing down your fit may be a bit trickier because of this, and sometimes a long night may cause the stockings to fit differently around the knees and ankles over the hours. But really, experimentation is half the fun and you gain so much from nylon’s sheerness. I kept stealing glances in mirrors all night and smoothing my skirt more than I had to, just so I could touch my stockings again!

There are coordinated bullet bras, slips, camisoles, silk thongs, tap pants, and wraps in the Dominique Collection. You can find these, as well as many other beautiful garter belts and stockings at SecretsInLace.com. If you have any questions that I didn’t answer, just ask me in the forums!

Secrets in Lace Holds Stocking Records

January 2, 2008 by Kelly

Diamond Backseam stockings at Secrets in LaceYou have seen Secrets in Lace before when we showed you Dita Von Teese’s stocking collection. They have a lot more to offer, though; in the last month alone, the company has launched more than a dozen new products (including these diamond backseam stockings)! There is a lot to say about this company’s dedication to their world-famous lingerie, but today I’m just going to focus on their stockings. Retro fans, read on!

Elegance Euro Heel stockings from Secrets in LaceSecrets in Lace has been shipping their products around the world since 1995. Resisting requests from large retailers to sell their brand in stores, the company has continued to sell exclusively through their mail order catalog and website. Dita Von Teese herself is a customer, and chose the brand to create her line because she trusted the company’s knowledge and experience with full-fashioned stockings. In fact, Secrets in Lace has the largest selection of full-fashioned stockings in the world!

Secrets in Lace’s full-fashioned nylon stockings are manufactured on the same machines used in the 40’s and 50’s, and Elegance French Heel from Secrets in Lacemade in the same way – they are knit flat and sewn together with a backseam. The finishing hole and imprint found on the welt complete the glamorous stockings. Fans of sheer stockings will be thrilled to learn that Secrets in Lace also has the largest selection of finer denier stockings (10 denier and 7 denier). These are true fine deniers, too – they don’t try to win you over with ā€œthe appearance of fine denierā€ like some lesser stocking companies. Just to add to the list of exclusive products, Secrets in Lace also has the only true 10 denier fully fashioned stockings in the world. With a variety of heel styles and reinforcements, anyone can find exactly what she is looking for.Veronica Fishnets at Secrets in Lace

Of course, a world-famous stocking manufacturer would be amiss not to offer thigh highs, and they have recently introduced new lace top thigh highs, with one style being offered in seven sizes (because women are not one-size-fits-all)!

Vintage Dot stockings at Secrets in LaceTrend setters will be happy to learn that Secrets in Lace has also been offering patterned stockings for over six years (pictured is the Vintage Dot print, which is their most popular print).

We’d love to hear from anyone who has experience with this brand in the forums – it has come up in conversation more than once. Secrets in Lace told me that several of their loyal customers brought The Lingerie Post to their attention, so I know you’re out there! Be on the lookout for future articles featuring the company. There is a lot more to tell!

Retro Stockings by Dita Von Teese

May 20, 2007 by Kelly

No one is more a fan of 40’s and 50’s pin-up glamour than Dita Von Teese, the famous burlesque performer, model, and ex-wife of rocker Marilyn Manson. Dita has paired up with Secrets in Lace to bring retro-inspired stockings to Dita Von Teese Stockingsthe masses! The description on the website reads:

“The Dita Full Fashion Stockings are made to the exacting standards of the 1950’s originals complete with her trademark logo imprint on the welt, a hand sewn backseam and finishing hole at the top of the welt.”

I have to say I’m very excited and intrigued by the idea of 1950’s replicasā€œ especially the hand sewn backseams! Anyone can find thigh-highs and pair them with a garter belt, but for the diehard fan of retro styles and rockabilly fashions, the Dita Von Teese collection is there to make sure your look is authentic! Garter belts are also available on the site to complete the set.
