Jockey Swirl Icon and No Panty Line Promise are trademarks of Jockey International, Inc. undercurrents Delicate Matters AS MUCH AS UNDERWEAR IS AN EVERYDAY ESSENTIAL, AS Susan Nethero of Atlanta-based Intimacy says, “it’s also, along with swimsuits and jeans, one of the most dreaded products women have to buy.” Indeed, BY TYLER RESTY ILLUSTRATION there’s nothing like trying on a skimpy bra to bring out body issues, and the thought of asking for assistance in front of a store full of strangers only compounds the anxiety. None of this is news to lingerie shop girls, who are trained to take a sensitive approach to the sales floor. “All customers desire a different amount of assistance,” says Melissa Silvetti, of Journelle in New York. “When someone is shy or a little conservative, we tone down our energy so as not to attract attention from fellow shoppers.” Whether a woman is in the market for basics or something that skews sexy, maintaining a level of discretion is key. At Intimacy, known for its bra-fitting specialists, customers can reserve appointments in advance online in an effort to avoid the discomfort of having to ask. Once there, “we don’t think any woman wants to be measured or weighed,” says Nethero, who tries to tailor appointments to the individual. “If it’s a young, teenage girl, we might pair her up with a younger fitter.” Regardless of age, most women — exhibitionists aside — consider privacy an essential part of the shopping experience, particularly when it comes to dressing rooms, which are often designed accordingly. “It’s a little nerve- racking sometimes when it’s a very small store and the only thing dividing you and shoppers is a small curtain,” says Silvetti, adding that Journelle’s dressing area features sturdy doors. Privacy isn’t the only issue: Dressing rooms are notorious for unflattering lighting, a problem Kiki de Montparnasse has solved by installing dimmers in the dressing rooms of its New York and Los Angeles stores. “People love it,” says Ashley Blanch, who manages the New York store. “You feel like you’re at home.” Yet for all the polite and studied sales approaches, nothing sells lingerie like confidence. Silvetti recalls a customer who, though skinny and stacked, was too timid to try sexier styles. After “a lot of gentle persuasion,” Silvetti persuaded her to buy a Cadolle corset, which she flaunted on the inaugural ball circuit. Seems the corset boosted her confidence, among other things. — Jessica Iredale Lingerie looks throughout the years. Atta Boy IN BETWEEN STYLING TOURS FOR BRITNEY Spears and Kylie Minogue, William Baker has been hard at work as creative director for B*boy Underwear, the dance-inspired men’s innerwear line. Its two new ranges for fall include the boldy colored Icon, and Active, with a high Lycra spandex content. “What inspired me,” says Baker, “was the very classical aesthetic in Calvin Klein ads from the Seventies and then again in the Nineties, with these pillars of masculinity.” — Katya Foreman Packaging from B*boy Underwear’s PANTY PARADE new Active range. LONDON’S FASHION AND TEXTILE MUSEUM GETS RACY FOR ITS LATEST exhibition, “Undercover,” which explores the changing shape of underwear since the early 20th century. Highlights include the world’s first patented bra, the Caresse Crosby, designed by the American socialite Mary Phelps Jacobs in 1914; a bodysuit worn by Sarah Jessica Parker in “Sex and the City,” and a white nylon Trade Secret bra from the Fifties with inflatable cup pouches for cleavage enhancement. The show runs through Sept. 27. — Louise Bartlett 8 WWDINTIMATES wINTa008(10)a;19.indd 1 7/17/09 4:30:15 PM INNOVATION YOU WILL LOVE.

  • Top Ten Fashion Designers
    Top Ten Fashion Designers In a society where we are bombarded with fashion, how on earth do we decide who the top ten designers are? Well, after quite a lot of pondering, I came up with some names that I thought were a well-rounded group of creative minds. These are the best from all over the board. So here goes. 1. VALENTINO GARAVANI. From Italy, this man knows how to make a woman look like a goddess. Having dressed many of the world's most famous leading ladies (such as Julia Roberts and Elizabeth Taylor), he has proven his talent and risen to the top as The King of Elegance. 2. TOM FORD Born in Texas this man is not only the Creative Director for Gucci, he's also the Creative Director for Yves Saint Laurent. Ford won the Best International Designer Award in 2000. 3. DONATELLA VERSACE is one of fashions most loved divas. Born in Calabria Italy, she took over her late brother Gianni Versace's design house. By following in his footsteps Donatella has become known for her sexy yet elegant designs. 4. ALEXANDER MCQUEEN is one of the worlds most innovative and outstanding designers. Known for his theatrical influence, his creations are not only beautiful but also colourful and raw. 5. BETSEY JOHNSON. Her designs are brilliant, bold and fun. They are funky and edgy, with a lifetime of flare. Straight from the American fashion capital [New York] Betsey is known for "her celebration of the exuberant". 6. RALPH LAUREN. He could possibly be the king of ready-to wear.

All Rights Reserved. ©2021 SAGE Publishing, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Can it adapt to changing times? Executive Summary The global fashion business is going through a period of intense change and competition, with disruption coming in many colors: global online marketplaces, slower growth, more startups and consumers who now seem bored by what once excited them. Many U.S. shoppers have grown tired of buying Prada and Chanel suits and prefer to spend their money on experiences rather than clothes. Questions about fashion companies’ labor and environmental practices are leading to new policies, although some critics remain unconvinced. Fashion still relies on creativity, innovation and consumer attention, some of which comes from technology and some from celebrities. Here are some key takeaways: High-fashion brands must now compete with “fast fashion,” apparel sold on eBay and vintage sites. Risk factors for fashion companies include China’s growth slowdown, reduced global trade, Brexit, terrorist attacks and erratic commodity prices. Plus-size women are a growing segment of the market, yet critics say designers are ignoring them. Overview José Neves launched Farfetch during the global economic crisis of 2008, drawing more on his background in IT and software than a love of fashion. His idea: Allow small designers and fashion shops to sell their wares worldwide on a single online marketplace. The site will “fetch” fashion from far-off places.

  • Boudoir & Fine Art Photography: the Intersection of Fun & Seduction
    Boudoir & Fine Art Photography: The Intersection of Fun & Seduction A Guide for First Time Clients and Veteran Boudies Monumental Arts Professional Fine Art Photography Boudoir & Fine Art Photography: Introduction So you are thinking about a Boudoir & Fine Art photography session – how exciting! But what is a boudoir & Fine Art session? Sounds simple – it’s just a sexy portrait session, right? Yes, no, and maybe, all at once! Boudoir is a unique and intimate style of photography – and whether you're looking for a romantic, glamour, pin-up, or fantasy session, it takes a big step to jump right in. Boudoir photography is a broad genre of photography that involves female subjects in sensual and suggestive poses. It is distinct from erotic photography in its emphasis on the aesthetic qualities of the subject and the craftsmanship of the photographic process over the sexually stimulating nature of the image. So, whether you are a veteran in front of the camera or brand new to the role, there are some things you should know about Boudoir & Fine Art photography. Tasteful, Private, and Confidential Sessions One of the top questions I’m asked regarding boudoir is “will these be online”? I have photographed over 300 boudoir sessions since I started in 2012 – most are completely private and are never seen online. In other words, if you don’t want your images shown on my website as examples, they never will be! I guarantee “Tasteful, Private, and Confidential Sessions!” Boudoir & Fine Art Styles Boudoir: Boudoir, as mentioned above, typically involves female subjects in sensual and suggestive poses.

  • The Mini Skirt Danielle Hueston New York City College of Technology Textiles
    The Mini Skirt Danielle Hueston New York City College of Technology Textiles When I was six my mother and I took one of our weekly day shopping trips to the mall. On our way back we stopped at this local thrift store. This being one of the first times I had ever experienced one, everything seemed so different and weird, in a good way. I wasn’t used to there only being one of everything, or one store that sold clothes, books, toys, home decor and shoes.Walking down the ‘bottoms aisle’ is where I first came across it. It was black and flowy, probably a cotton material, with a black elastic band around the waist. I wanted it, I needed it. It was the perfect mini skirt. It reminded me of the one I saw Regina George wear in the Hallway Scene in the movie ‘Mean Girls’ a few months prior and had to get it, even though it was a “little” big. There was only one, I was going to make it work. When Monday came I wasted no time showing off my new skirt at school. It made me feel like a whole new person. At some point of the day however my teacher had stepped out of the room to talk to another teacher, in conjunction one of my classmates playfully grabbed my pencil out of my hand, to which I decided to chase him around the room to retrieve it back. I tripped and my skirt fell right to my ankles, in front of the entire class.

The designer bras (http://www.houseoffraser.co.uk/Bras/3150,default,sc.html&cgid=315) collection launched at House of Fraser on 11 September and is titled the 'Party Edition'. Speaking about her inspiration for the line, Dita said: "I wanted to re-invent the existing collection for a few reasons, one being that I love it so much myself, and I was so happy with the execution of the new bra shapes Wonderbra (http://www.houseoffraser.co.uk/on/demandware.store/Sites-hof-Site/default/Search-ShowBrand?brand=Wonderbra&fromBrand=Wonderbra) made for me, that I kept fantasizing about having it in other colours and fabrics." The Sparkle Teese lingerie is sure to excite customers, with its combination of sequins, tulle and ruby red tassles. Designed to provide sexy yet sophisticated styling, the Sparkle Teese is available in a cleavage and balcony bra, brief and thong bottoms and matching suspender belt. The Satine Teese lingerie has been created to provide pure silver screen glamour. The line comes in two shades of a fiery red satin and a delicate mauve with a sensual lace trim.
