Photography by William Williams, model Holly Parker

It truly is so much fun being a part of a lingerie photo shoot, as was the case with these photos taken by the talented William Williams.  Both he and model Holly Parker collaborated to create these striking images featuring lingerie picked up from Faire Frou Frou!   What's always interesting is seeing how a given photographer selects lingerie from our shop and makes them come to life with distinct style and personality in their work.  We were very impressed with what William did here! 
Probably most of our lingerie fans recognize the Bordelle Tutu Waspie, which was perfectly paired with a Tamzin Lillywhite pony ear bridle.  Other pieces from our boutique include the red Lascivious Helena bra/panty set, the Lascivious Tyra cropped (strappy) top, and the Marlies Dekkers 'Leading Strings' strappy thong.
A special thanks to Style on the Couch for including us on this project!

Lingerie Pin-Up Story

Images via here.  photos by Marc Philbert, model Jenny Knoch

How could we resist sharing such an adorable pin-up story!  In what is reminiscent of a Chantal Thomass lingerie campaign, photographer Marc Philbert has created an editorial filled with retro-inspired sweetness with a touch of suggestive bad girl behavior (in true pin-up form).   
We love that each image shares the lingerie/clothing credits...far too often we don't get enough information!  We've identified some of our favorite brands such as Fifi Chachnil, Wolford, Chantal Thomass, Princesse Tam-Tam, Gerbe & Eres (plus many more).  
Our favorite images are the top three...do you have a favorite?

We just posted the new arrivals from Made by Niki on our website and have been chatting about it all week (if you follow us on Instagram, Pinterest or Facebook you may have  already noticed).  The Peplums collection for Spring 2013 is bright, cheerful, frilly and downright delightful.  These pieces capture the essence of a beautiful Spring season and certainly are perfect representation of the word frou-frou!  The colorway includes colors such as Barbie Pink and Canary Yellow, and includes new shapes such as the Shoulder Holster and the Bustle Panty.  Of course we had to bring back the famous String Playsuit, this time in a dip-dyed two-tone pink.  Just looking at these images makes us crave sweets...as it is, each item is like a delectable confection!

Belle Et BonBon SS13


some pretty styles from the current Winter 2012 collection...
images via Belle Et BonBon

Belle Et BonBon is a stylish and indulgent lingerie brand from the UK.  Beautiful lace, velvet trims, ruffles and bows come together in a tasteful and simple manner to create an elegant collection.   We've kept our eye on this relatively new label and really enjoy how its evolved into something brilliant in just a couple of seasons.  The new Spring 2013 designs are just our style, and we simply couldn't resist sharing two of our favorite images from the previous Winter collection.  It appears that the brand is mainly available in shops in the UK (and various European retailers), but that likely won't be the case for long.  We see worldwide potential for Belle Et BonBon, and can't wait to see what the next season has in store!

Murmur - The Hellcat SS2013

images via murmur, Photo and editing: Mihai Bumbu, Model: Natalia/ Mandarina Models Romania
Make-up: Alexandra Crăescu Hair: Daniela Enache

It's been far too long since we've featured Murmur on our blog, and now that the Spring 2013 Murmur collection is being released, we had to share!   Murmur is a brand that designs outerwear that is lingerie-inspired...but one look at these images tells you that.  The images above are from the latest collection called hellcat, which the designer wants to remind us means:

1. a. A woman regarded as bad-tempered and evil.
b. A woman who practices sorcery; a witch.
2. A person who torments others.  
That being said, we are enjoying the corset details and harness layering.   Do you have a favorite?
