Vanity Fair Italy calls her "The Queen of Lingerie" and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi calls her "a visionary of ethical and sustainable entrepreneurship." That is one weighty crown to wear, but Mary Green doesn't seem to mind, possibly because she's wearing it to accent one of her silk lingerie pieces.

Mary Green specializes in silk undergarments combining the beauty of the finest Chinese silk with creativity and design. That's probably why her underthings have found their way into the drawers of Renee Zellweger, Jessica Biel, Jennifer Lopez and Eva Longoria. Everyone, it seems, wants to be around royalty.

Our latest Mary Green in-store piece, the Stretch Silk Satin Doll Chemise with Lace, certainly lives up to her reputation (seen left, in pink). We are carrying this chemise in sweetheart red. This luxurious silk frock has scalloped, tone-on-tone lace and an alluring side-slit. The gathered cups and adjustable straps make for a great fit on a range of curves. The silk is bias-cut which allows for the most graceful, flowing fabric.

Mary Green combines her great design skills and her commitment to creating better lives for people living in the shadow of poverty and deprivation throughout the third world proving that even internationally, underwear matters.
