Lately I have been a bit obsessed with underthings. It has always made feel so much better knowing I am wearing something gorgeous underneath my clothing even if I’ve just got jeans and a t-shirt on. Especially when I am having a difficult day. It’s the little things in life, you know…
Here are a few of my favorite things.
I was introduced to Fifi Chachnil when I worked at the Agent Provocateur shop on Melrose in Early 2000. I loved the classic vintage style of her designs. All of her materials were so lovely and the fit was amazing. I instantly became a huge fan and have followed her ever since.
Also, she designs the costumes for the Crazy Horse in Paris which is amazing.
Her Shop is only in Paris and one location in London, but you can find her online as well as at fine lingerie retailers.
Another Favorite is Purrfect Pineapples, made in the USA by super talented and sweet Erica. I just recently got a beautiful set from her. Made with vintage Strawberry fabric and it fits perfectly. Supporting indie designers is essential. Without your patronage we wouldn’t be able to exist as artists.

Knickerocker is another Handmade in the USA and is specifically local to my area. I just discovered them recently and think their designs are just adorable. I have no idea on the fit, but I’m sure she knows what she’s doing.

Another Recent discovery ,vintage inspired by Chicago designer and also hand-made in the USA Dotties Delights. http://dottiesdelights.com/
And last but not least my favorite tights of all time. I love this company. Anytime I want to buy myself a nice gift I go to Les Queues de Sardines http://www.les-queues-de-sardines.com/index.html
