Wolford: 2008-2009 Hosiery

October 17, 2008 by Rene

In this abbreviated series, TLP will look at new hosiery for the 2008-2009 seasons. With fall and winter rapidly approaching in the northern hemisphere, it is time to start thinking about hosiery and leggings.

Wolford has a fifty plus year history. Wolford was one of the first to market the hold-up. This fall, Wolford is offering several hosiery illusions.

The Mignon Stay-Up includes a diamond pattern with a reprieve in the back of the leg forming the outline of a larger diamond. They are £37.00. These Cuff Leggings are made of merino wool with a chunky-knit. The extra length makes them perfect for wearing with high-heels. The side opens with Swarovski buttons. These are £149.00.

On the left , the Aspen Stirrup Tights look a little like ski pants including a front seam. For £59.00. On the right, a Merino wool stay-up. They do not contain lycra since wool has an innate elasticity. For £29.00.

On the left, Opera Tights with a nice graphical stripe – horizontal around the thigh and a thin line traveling up the rear for £25.00. On the right, Sascha Tights includes a mix of lines and patterns. Below the thigh, polka dots dominate this pair for £26.00.

The Alcazar Tights are a clever illusion. The seam is on the side, the stay-up effect is an optical illusion and the fishnet on the leg is not real, but they look smashing for £34.00. On the right, the Bracelet Tights have a chain look along the leg and around the waist for £25.00.

Hollywood Fashion Tape: Fashion Solutions

February 27, 2008 by Krista

Even our favorite undergarments sometimes let us down. Straps that don’t stay put. Bras that don’t give enough oomph. Bras that are a little too thin to wear to the workplace. Well, that is why Hollywood Fashion Tape exists! Now you can know the secrets that the celebrities know to keeping everything in and looking fabulous.

The “Keep Your Clothes On Collection” includes the original apparent and body tape, Hollywood Fashion Tape, Hollywood Tag Tamers, and Hollywood Behind the Seams. The Hollywood Fashion Tape is hypo-allergenic so it is safe to use both on skin and fabrics to keep your straps hidden and tops lying flat. The easy-to-use, 3 inch strips are also ideal for securing plunging necklines and fixing hems. Need more extreme hold? The Red Carpet Assortment may solve your wardrobe problems. In 5 unique shapes (like trapezoids for the sides of your strapless tops and skinny strips for your shoes and spaghetti straps), you will feel comfortable and confident as you walk into any room. Are your tags what drive you crazy? Hollywood Tag Tamers are self-adhesive squares that can be easily applied to tags and keep you cool, sane, and free from annoying tag itch. Each pack contains 24 tag covers in 2 sizes. Tired of dry cleaning your dresses after each wear? Concerned about underarm wetness ruining your look? Enter Hollywood Behind the Seams self-adhesive apparel shields. Easily inserted, these disposable little wonders will keep you dry and in control.

Know a bride-to-be? You might interest her in the Hollywood Fashion Tape “Here Comes the Bride Collection!” Wedding Apparel Tape is perfect for those unique wedding day fashion emergencies. Hold strapless dresses in place. Secure strappy sandals. Keep garters in place. Use the Glamorous Gown Assorment (includes the same shapes found in the Red Carpet Assortment) for the trickiest wardrobe situations.

The “Bodacious Breast Collection” is designed specifically for your girls! Need to be discreet at work or elsewhere? Try the Hollywood Cover Ups Reusable Nipple Concealers. Made of hypo-allergenic silicone, these self-adhesive discs will give you a flawless appearance. Reusable up to 10 times or more, these nipple concealers are unique in that they have a tapered edge that adds to the smoothness of the look. Tired of your straps showing with your favorite racerback tanks? The clear Hollywood Hook-Ups Bra Converting Clip will not only secure straps out of site, but also give you a little extra lift. Also available are the Hollywood Clear Bra Straps and Hollywood No-Shows Disposable Nipple Concealers. Give yourself a boost with Hollywood Extras Silicone Breast Enhancers. These reusable items can be slipped into a bra or swimsuit to give you added volume or cleavage.

While the Hollywood Oil Blotting Sheets and Hollywood Make-Out Mints may not solve your wardrobe problems, but they will keep you fresh and flawless.

Look for all of the above listed products at locations worldwide.

Girardi Hosiery: new at Becheeky!

December 19, 2007 by Mandolina

We haven’t really featured enough hosiery-specific brands on TLP, so I’m sure it’s refreshing to see today’s post about a brand I had never heard of but just got added to the BeCheeky stocklist: Girardi Hosiery.

Lace Top Hold Up 50 Denier by Girardi HosieryOpaque Lace Up Back Over Knee Stocking by Girardi HosieryPinstripe Overknee Effect Tights by Girardi HosierySkirted Supsender Tights by Girardi Hosiery

Don’t you just love the attention to detail in these pieces? I’m not the biggest fan of the laced top Hold-ups, but those overknees are so cute I could just eat ‘m! Pretty bows, perfect eye-catching height and sure jaw-droppers at any party (or even at work for those who dare!). Prices aren’t cheap — about $40 a pair.

I’m ordering myself a couple of these to try out — will keep you all posted! 🙂

New Agent Provocateur for a hot winter!

December 13, 2007 by Mandolina

Agent Provocateur must be one of the most popular brands when it comes to men buying lingerie for women in the USA. Not only do women understand these are not your everyday Victoria’s Secret pieces — the lingerie is also extremely sexy and sultry, which always works — men-wise. I’ve always enjoyed the Agent Provocateur lingerie, but seeing as these anything but cheap, I’ve only had one set… ever. After seeing these pics of the latest AP collections, I’m considering splashing $170 on the breathtaking Jennifer bra (yes, the one with the zippers for easy nipple-access!). 😀

The Jennifer bra isn’t the only stunner amongst the new lines though — but I’ll let you all make up your own minds with these great photos I took right off the Agent Provocateur website!

As you can see — they’ve pretty much done it again. Retro, Girly and Sexy. Excellent collections!

Amor Latino Spring/Summer 2008 Lingerie

November 18, 2007 by Mandolina

Our friends from Luxury Lingerie Shopping pointed out they beat us to the punch covering the brand new Amor Latino spring/summer 2008 lingerie collection. The Amor Latino website sure has some beautiful photos of their upcoming lingerie, and I’m happy as always to show you my little favorite photos from their range.

An absolutely gorgeous collection if you ask me. I would never guess this was a South-American brand, by the way. The pieces look extremely European — and I mean that in the most positive way possible. 😉 Like I said — more is on the Amor Latino website.
