Spring birdcage veil and turquoise lingerie. NEW COLLECTION PREVIEW for S/S 2012 by I.D. Sarrieri

The birdcage veil is a trend that is gathering pace and also popularity among fashion houses and their RTW or HC proposals (e.g. Jil Sander S/S 2012, Alexander McQueen RTW S/S 2012, Chanel HC F2011/W2012). The birdcage veil dates back to the 1940’s/1950’s when the classic widow netting look started to be replaced with the glamorous version. Slowly but sure, the accessory evolved as an outfit item for an unstructured look which we all see now, varying from being worn with flowers, feathers, crystal beads, vintage hair brooches and hair clips.

Lingerie News: the French election campaign and the lingerie industry

The French election campaign and the lingerie industry

After weeks of bra wars led by a tiny group of determined factory workers in a rural town in central France, women’s underwear has been catapulted to the heart of the French election campaign. Lingerie has become the symbol of all that is wrong with the country’s economy. The lowly paid “fairy fingers” of an underwear factory in Yssingeaux waged war against plans to shut their factory and outsource to Tunisia their intricate job of stitching straps, cups and hooks for a French lingerie brand.

The battle of 90 mostly middle-aged women and three men in pink and white striped overalls gripped France. They became a symbol not just of French fears over rising unemployment, which is at a 12-year high of nearly 10%, with one million more unemployed than when Sarkozy took office five years ago.

But we would like to add that the client is right but the creative team has the duty to notify the client about the faux pas and give advice if necessary so the client will have a global view. The following short video is about an amazing advertiser who came up with an idea and she received a feedback regarding her apartment interior design. The transformation happened more than 5 years ago but the doors of the condo opened quite recently in 2009 for the public’s eyes. Today we get inspired by its creativity

Did you know about our versatile bustier?

A bustier is a very “structured” garment, which covers from bust to hips. Many bustiers shape your body line just like a corset does. But the main difference between a bustier and a corset is that the bustier does not really “grasp” the waist, as a corset does. It shape the figure but doesn’t give you that wasp line you look for in a corset.
