What a pleasure to her again at the Salon! Her, who was so discreet after have revolutionized the lingerie standards and invented the innerwear as outerwear fashion. Vannina Vesperini is back with spring/summer 2010 (pictures) and next winter collections which will enjoy the lingeristas.

Her lingerie is a paradise for the Coquette: very sophisticated, seducing without provocation, rich of many loungewear pieces all more tempting the one's than the others and, of course, absolutely luxurious!

More infos (but unfortunately no more pictures) on Vannina Vesperini's website

Very nice short film, ethereal, gracious and full of humour, like their new collection, by Justin Anderson for Damaris.

If you liked it, just browse damaris.co.uk to discover their lingerie. I post here my two favorites from the spring/summer ranges, but note they propose special sale on winter's collections.

I'm definitely amazed by Les Jupons de Tess: after a first spring 2009 collection which has let me perplexed, I was really seduced this autumn by their winter 2009/10 collection and I'm now admiring and impatient regarding what's coming next winter.

It's indeed one of the most attractive collection I have saw at the Salon de la Lingerie 2010: mysterious and sexy, full of delicate details, using beautiful silks and laces and completed by deliciously boudoir accessories.

Here is some indiscretions from that collection, revealed in preview especially for Petite Coquette readers, and I invite you to (re)discover their current collection on their website: Jupons de Tess. We just have to hope seeing before next autumn some online lingerie stores providing the beautiful lingerie of that young brand which will quickly become essential!

The Salon de la Lingerie 2010 is associated to the organisation Designing Hope which works to help african women living with aids. The concept is to create a link from fashion designers, who design hope, and african women, who create decoration products from the draws.
Fifteen well known lingerie brands have participated to this partnership and theirs designs became hand-made brodery lamps which were exposed during the Salon. This lamps will be sold this spring on internet at ithemba and next december at the BHV store in Paris. Price will be really affordable (from 40 to 80 euros); it pays the work of the african women of course and it helps also to finance the association.

So for a few money you can participate to a charitable action and in the same time claim in your lounge (or in your bedroom) your taste for beautiful lingerie!
Personnaly I particularly love the Ritratti's lamp but I will buy the Aubade one for it sense of humour

Agathe et ses Princes

Four years after the launching of Hotmilk which has shook the code of the market, the tendancy to a more sophisticated nursing lingerie is confirmed by the oppening of the Be Mum sector at the Salon de la Lingerie.
Petite-Coquette has had a look and I'm back with four brands interesting for their retro looks or their really sexy lingerie:
Agathe et ses Princes, Belgian brand with a funny 60'S style.
Anielina, French brand which proposes sexy lace lingerie and an organic range.
The Australians from Cake lingerie
And of course my favorite: Hotmilk which proposes a very sensual lingerie, designed for pregnant women who absolutely want to stay sexy!

Hotmilk

As last year, Passionata proposes a beautiful private catwalk, real cabaret show inspired by the Pin-Up symbols which presents with humor and levity the lingerie of the brand.

Great animation (and many many peoples) on the Maison Close stand where they propose a burlesque show with Scarlett Diamond.
A charming and playful strip-tease which is a funny invitation t discover their new collection Villa Caprice presented online and at the Salon.

Welcome in Paris !

I’ve been here for a few hours at the Salon International de la Lingerie de Paris. This is the 2010 edition that opened this Saturday. Even if some exhibitors are absent due to the crisis, some of our favorite brands are here and there are some new items on the programme.

French Cancan and Nuit de Satin presented ravishing things to me (I will reveal them soon), Bien Fee Pour Toi is launching a beachware line for the first time this summer and Fleur of england is presenting two absolutlely irresistible collections (they will come out this autumn and I unfortunately cannot present them to you before)… Aubade is announcing here a "Rendez-Vous" gift box wich will follow the seven temptations and which will lead you to the kitchen...

In this 2010 edition a new corner is a "be mum" sector wich reflects here new trend, symbolized by Hotmilk, toward a sexy lingerie for pregnant woman. More details in coming days.

There are a lot of people in the tows and at the stands, so many that I couldn’t get near Vannina Vesperini who is making a big comeback at this exhibition, for our great enjoyment

I will go into more details on all the pretty discoveries of this exhibition. But if you are really impatient, just take a look over there, it’s beautiful.

And it's an excellent news for many reasons: firstly for the Italian lingerie brand lovers who will now easily find all collections from Argentovivo but also Bacirubati and Julipet (for mens).
Secondly for all lingerie fans because it's a new sign then luxury brands are more and more involved not only in internet but also in e-shopping. A tendancy I have stood up for a long time now and which is confirmed months after months (when will we find online all the Chantal Thomass stockings collections?)
And, last but not least, because we are in sale period and the Argentovivo eshop doesn't make exception and offers from 30% to 50% Off on all collections!
For all that reasons we will forgive it lack of glamour which will probably be improved in a future version...
