Velvet lingerie is everywhere right now. It’s the perfect Winter fabric thanks to its smooth and thicker texture. Just looking at velvet makes me feel all warm inside. It’s not just showing up on bras, either. You’ll find it on bralettes, bodysuits, chemises, slips, briefs, lounge shorts, and robes. It’s often used as a trim, or crushed and burned…
Blue lingerie is big this Fall. To be honest, it’s been a favorite color choice the past few seasons. What is it about blue? It turns out that it’s everyone’s favorite color. Blue is the color of the sea and the sky. It exudes trust and confidence, which is why it’s good to wear to a…
Knicker Luxe is an Australian brand I stumbled upon at one of the semi-annual intimate apparel tradeshows. It was easy to talk to Sophie Higgins, Knicker Luxe co-founder, and Brand Director. It wasn’t just her great sense of humor and adorable accent that reeled me into the booth. Her infectious passion for the business of…
I stopped doing formal lingerie trade show coverage a few years ago for reasons that aren’t exactly a secret: much of the stock at shows like Curve looks pretty much the same.

What lingerie fashions might you find in stores this Fall? After walking the aisles of New York’s Javits Center for two days during the Curvexpo Lingerie & Swim tradeshow, I can sum up FW2016 lingerie trends in one sentence: work is play, and play is work. What do I mean? Athleisure styles continue to dominate…
White bras make me think of my early teens when my mom took me to the intimate apparel department of The Bon Marche (now Macy’s) to buy my first bra. I wasn’t thrilled. Not because I was embarrassed about my recent breast development. My new bra shopping adventure felt awkward because my mother looked at my chest…
Think starting up a new lingerie brand is only for energetic young fashion graduates? Think again. Layneau founder, Kaaren Bedi, launched her luxury lingerie brand after a successful career in another industry. I first met her when she showed her initial collection in New York. I could relate to her mid-life professional path switch since…
Forget those once-a-year red sexy lingerie sales before Valentine’s Day. And why wait until you’re planning a honeymoon to splurge on some eye popping, cream-colored lace and satin outfit? Pick your own date, any date! You can invest in sexy lingerie whether it’s a three year, three month, or third date anniversary. It’s a special…
