    Fall Lingerie Trends: In Stores or Coming Soon

    ByHolly123 September 26, 2016 9:14 am

    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. Lingerie trends have become less exciting over the past few years, and color palettes have evolved to focus on nothing but the most…

    Anita: An Innovative 130-Year-Old Lingerie Business

    Byelisabeth September 7, 2016 9:07 amJune 15, 2025 6:29 pm

    Yep, that’s right. Intimate apparel and swimwear brand, Anita, has been in business for 130 years. They’re celebrating their anniversary with a PR campaign featuring images of 130 women from different walks of life wearing their lingerie and swimwear. And that makes perfect sense, given their dedication to serving the scope of women’s intimate apparel needs….

    Summer Strapless Bras: What to Wear When You’d Rather Wear Nothing at All

    Byelisabeth June 22, 2016 8:33 am

    Temperatures are climbing right now in Southern California and the less I have to wear the better. I’m not a huge fan of strapless bras because they’re more challenging to size and fit on my body. But I love to wear them during hotter and more humid months. Going braless is not an option for…

    Are Women Betrayed by Bralette Fashion Trend?

    ByHolly123 May 27, 2016 9:16 am

    A few weeks ago, an envelope showed up in my mailbox from my dad. My father is a deeply serious person with zero interest in fashion, so I was surprised to find an article on bralettes inside, cut out from my parent’s local newspaper. At the top, my dad had scrawled a message. “Have you…

    Why Don’t Brands Make Bras Above a G Cup?

    ByHolly123 March 23, 2016 8:56 am

    I’ve written about lingerie for years, and this is still one of the most frequently asked questions that I get: why don’t brands make bras above a G Cup? In part, I think this question is common because it’s evident whenever you look at a site that carries lots of lingerie brands. There’s tons of…

    Full Busted and Full-Figured: A Lingerie Primer

    ByHolly123 January 13, 2016 9:02 am

    Shopping for clothing when you’re curvy can be tough. Figuring out what “type” of curvy you are according to the fashion industry can be even harder. How do you know when you are full busted or full-figured? Full busted and full-figured are used interchangeably in fashion articles and by brands, but knowing the difference between…

    The Color Red: When to Wear It

    Byelisabeth January 29, 2014 10:57 amMay 31, 2025 5:28 pm

    I’m seeing the color red everywhere these days, except in my lingerie drawer. During awards season celebrities walk the “red carpet,” which is rolled out to signify their importance. For Valentine’s Day the color symbolizes passion and love. In the upcoming Chinese New Year holiday, red represents good luck and prosperity. It’s a power color….
