Bodyscape ~ Hanro Underwear

May 14, 2012

I was 17 when I first realized that the human body was much more than a science phenomenon, but rather, a work of art. I purchased a book in Paris, which at the time, I thought was very risqué. Aptly named La Femme, it was a photographic memoir of the naked figure and my initial introduction to a woman’s body as a visual landscape. I was taught in art class that the torso could define the canvas or as an alternative, I could fill the entire space with the curve of just one limb. How we choose to define this form is to me what beautiful lingerie is all about. The best underwear preserves the feminine bodyscape, allowing the natural shape to emerge with the most amount of ease.

For years the Austrian based Hanro brand has been recognized for its beautiful mercerized cotton undergarments. Recently, however, I was introduced to their NEXT GENERATION technology, a revolutionary and proprietary finishing process that render the natural fibers so soft that I could not believe these panties and camisoles were actually 100% cotton. An ultra-fine silky smooth surface emits a subtle sheen which is visible as the fabric lightly drapes the body creating a sensual portrait of classic comfort. This is state-of-the-art development is destined to further enhance the Hanro gallery of Intimate body design.
