Learning Lingerie: Taking the Plunge

Now that we know all about Balconnets, Demi Cups and Full Cup bras, it's time to talk the ultimate in low cut: the plunge bra!

Andres Sarda's Klein Non-Wire Plunge

The plunge bra does just what its name suggests by eliminating much of the center gore, making it perfect for use under low-cut clothing. What's really great about the plunge bra, though, is that it takes countless forms and works on a variety of body types.

For example, The Little Bra Company makes padded demi plunges which feature an open neckline and substantial boosting properties for girls on the smaller end of the spectrum. Other companies like Andres Sarda, even make styles like the Klein (shown above) in a non-wire plunge cut, perfect for girls in a B or C cup who don't want or need the lift of a padded/wired bra, but crave comfort coupled with a deep cut.

Prima Donna's Amazone Plunge

As a balconnet is not always a demi cup, the term "plunge" doesn't necessarily imply less overall coverage. For the girls who need a little more support, Prima Donna's plunge bra is actually technically a full cup. The Amazone (shown above, soon to arrive in store in Pandora Blue) is the perfect plunge for E to G cups -- it doesn't sacrifice support or coverage for the sake of the deep V style. In fact, they have all the lift and shaping of the balconnet and traditional full cup styles. That's why Prima Donna plunges have always been a customer favorite!

More extreme versions of the plunge cut feature a longline silhouette where the band (and thus, the plunging gore portion) extends vertically well past the usual measurements.

It's also important to note that while we may not carry each collection's version of a plunge in store, we can always order it for you! Almost every designer and collection has some iteration of a plunge bra, and we'd be happy to help you find the perfect one for you!

Give or Receive? Why Choose When You Can Do Both?

It's that time of year again: stockings are stuffed, gifts given and decadence and thoughtfulness coveted. If you haven't already started, there's no time like the present to draw up your holiday wish list. And while you're at it, why not tick off some items from your loved ones' lists too?

It doesn't matter if she's your lover, sister, mother, aunt or daughter -- every woman wants to feel special this holiday season. Lucky for you, we're here to help out and we have it all!


WHAT TO GIVE?

Sleepwear

Whether your budget is $70 or $700, we have loungewear for every personality: from basic staples from PJ Harlow, Eberjey and PJ Salvage, to the finer things in life like sumptuous silk charmeuse Christine Vancouver gowns an
d robes. We're also proud to announce the arrival of Pluto, whose matelasse robes are dreamy-soft. More styles are expected soon, as well as fresh and cozy additions from Le Chat. When it comes to pajamas, we do truly have something for everyone on your list!


Hanky Panky

Whether her style is fun and funky or classic and comfy, Hanky Panky's bits and pieces make the ideal stocking
stuffers. Hanky Panky's signature thong is a worldwide best seller, and we've got plenty in stock in a lovely range of fall hues. We also have their low rise thongs, lace bralettes, boyshorts and teddies. Hanky Panky's pieces are the perfect little something to cap off her dream gift.


Prima Donna


Give the gift of exceptional support this holiday season! By now, we don't need to tell you how amazing Prima Donna's bras are. We're more stocked than ever, and if she's on the bustier side, a gift from the Prima Donna or Prim
a Donna Twist lines is a winning choice.



Jewelry from Jamie Joseph & Danielle Welmond


Candy-shaded stones and flawless cuts make Jamie Joseph one of our favorite jewelry lines. A cocktail ring in rutilated quartz, chalcedony, drusy agate or Indian ruby is a gift that begs to be showed off. If her taste leans towards the more feminine side, Danielle Welmond's lace-inspired pieces make a divine gift.



WHAT TO RECEIVE?


Andres Sarda

Andres Sarda is one of our newer brands, and we're so happy that they're here to stay. From space-age cuts to graphic lace, dotted tulle swagged straps and bold shades, Andres Sarda's lingerie is anything but ordinary, and the perfect brand to add to your personal holiday list! It's guaranteed to wow your special someone!



Aubade


We've carried Aubade's gorgeous pieces before, and we're overjoyed to have them back on our walls just in time for the holidays! There's a reason that Aubade is one of the most coveted lingerie brands in the planet -- it exemplifies traditional French styling, with a sturdy
construction and sexy shape that's truly otherworldly. With perfect accordion pleats and Chantilly lace, the lovely honey-hued Asako collection is the perfect gift to give yourself this holiday season!



Lejaby


Lejaby's silhouettes and fabrics are among the most feminine and decadent imaginable, and we're certain you'll love the brand-new Crystal and Milday collections as much as we do! Both feature simple underwired lace balconnet panels overlayed with a Renaissance-inspired exterior which lifts and shapes in a way that no contemporary bra can. Or perhaps you'd like something a little more traditional? There's no doubt the Lara collection will be right up your alley. Sexy black tulle embroidered with beautiful red and taupe flowers makes a showstopper of a set.


Our experienced staff is here to help right up until Christmas Eve night, so be sure to swing by! Let us help to select something for the favorite woman in your life, no matter who she is!
