Lingerie Trends in 2012 (Part 2/2)



(part one)

Structure Makes Your Current Closet Work 

You’ll be finding more structured pieces next season. These pieces will make the what’s already in your closet even better by providing you with a great foundation.

A keyword this season is “couture” as body-hugging designs look like they were made just for you. The classics will be meticulously reinvented and adorned with humor and surprise.

Loungewear Making a Comeback 

And in opposition to constricting structure, loungewear is making a comeback with housecoats becoming a new, multi-functional, must-have piece. Bi-stretch and easy comfort pieces make lounging particularly decadent.

Glamour Hosiery Trends 

The four key themes of hosiery in 2012 include words like, “diva,” “naturalle,” “sheer delight” and “rebel.” These looks include full-on glam with retro themes as well as looks that take advantage of the latest in fabric technology. Seaming, micro-mesh, fencenet and seductive patterning all exemplify these styles.

And look for all of these trends and more to be featured at the Salon International de la Lingerie in Paris at the end of the month. For more information you can check out http://www.lingerie-paris.com/http://www.lingerie-paris.com/.

Lingerie Trends in 2012 (Part 1/2)



Lingerie is subject to trends as much as any other fashion. This is why, at Secret Drawers Lingerie, we bring in pieces all year long that reflect the very latest trends in silks, lace, colour and print. And this year you can expect to see spirit-lifting colours and prints to fight the feelings around the current economic climate. Nothing is too matchy-matchy this season with an emphasis on being artistic and original.

Spring is About Colour

This spring is going to be all about colour: violet, chartreuse, scarlet red, azure, cognac, indigo and beetroot. These colours will be seen in naturalist looks that celebrate upcylcing, pastoral eccentricities and plant life. The broadest sense of nature is in mind as the source of lasting creative energy and well-being. Fine embroideries and backstitching are seen on these often thin-stretch, layered looks.

Amongst these strong fashion statements lay the palest of pastels like whipped cream, cappuccino and icicle to freshen the palette. Prints may be oversized as in large rose blooms or miniature as is tiny rose buds covering a pair of panties. Prints can be seen in a traveller’s palette including tribal, primitive and blanket prints. You’ll also notice Mediterranean and Spanish influences throughout.

In part two learn about trends for structured pieces, loungewear and hosiery.

Fashion in Sapphire



We're pleased to offer fine lingerie in the latest colour trends. Sapphire is part of spring's colour story as seen in the Felina Conturelle Fashion 60 design.

The Fashion 60 gets our vote both for fashion and comfort. The Felina Conturelle line is designed with the full-busted woman in mind and keeps it comfortable with an innovative sectional design.

And while innovation is good, what we're after is the look and feel of the lingerie. An easy elegance comes to mind when thinking about this new look.

The multi-coloured embroidery and luxurious detailing ensure sophistication through to an H cup and the matched underwear continues the design.

Felina's 120 years of experience is proudly brought to the Comox Valley by Secret Drawers Lingerie. Drop by to see why this underwear matters.

New Trasparenze - Leggings Too!



It came to my attention that when I talked about the spring / summer line of Trasparenze last week, I didn't mention leggings. Today I'll correct that oversight.

To the right is an example of the Paige legging from the Trasparenze spring / summer line. Leggings are a hot trend right now as they can add informal adornment to any leg and, only extending to mid-calf, they are perfect paired with flats, heels or sandals for your day in the sun.

The Paige has a fishnet leg and the appearance of embroidery on the band at the calf. These are available in ivory (known as silk) and navy blue (known as oltremare).

More than Half of Woman Feel Their Most Beautiful in Their 30's and 40's



Have you ever wanted to turn back the clock and get your 20-year-old face back? No? Well, you're not alone; more than half of the 1500 women surveyed said they felt their most beautiful and successful in their thirties and forties. This tells us what we've known for a long time: women can feel their best at every age. Psychologist Dr Sandra Wheatley said,

"It’s a sign that we are valued for who we are and what we are capable of, not just what is on the surface. Feeling beautiful is tied in with confidence and life experience." (italics added)
And here at Secret Drawers Lingerie, we agree. In fact, we take it one step further. We believe that if women are beautiful and successful at 40 because of their life experiences, then their beauty gets even better at 50, 60, and beyond.
Meryl Streep, 60 and breathtaking, by Brigitte Lacomb, Vanity Fair
Beauty isn't about a two-dimensional image shone back at you from a piece of glass. Beauty is about confidence, experience, and knowing who you are and what you want. Vashti and I have proven this by taking some of our biggest steps in our 40's and 50's, and feel great about it.

We encourage any woman to drop by Secret Drawers Lingerie and see how the right undergarment can remind you of your feminine beauty. We know that your beauty is within you, we just aim to give you a daily reminder you can wear on the outside.

Women in their 40's buy lingerie like they were in their 20's



We, at Secret Drawers Lingerie, love the idea that women in their 40's are driving lingerie sales. Why shouldn't the gorgeous women of Sex in the City (in their 40's and 50's, by the way, see Kim Cattrall, below) and Courteney Cox in TV's Cougar Town strut in lace and silk baring their beautiful bodies? Beauty and sex appeal doesn't disappear because you hit a number on the calendar. Our customers follow the trend and are in their 40's and 50's rediscovering their bodies with excitement. Plus, they now have the time, money, and wisdom to pamper themselves.

And the sex life of woman over 40 is better than ever:
One third of women over forty said they were having more sex now than 20 years ago - and more than half had more orgasms.
Unlike those in their twenties, older women said they had no inhibitions when it came to spicing up their sex life.

Woman in their 40's are now proud to buy more stockings, suspenders, thongs, and bras than women in their 20's. These women really like their spice.

Model Elle Macpherson, 47, has a hugely successful underwear line as does Liz Hurley at 44. Now, more than ever, it's time to recognize that throughout life, underwear really does matter.
