Tried, True & New ~ Fantasie Eclipse
Yesterday, I purchased a Coach Saddle bag, reminiscent of my first Coach bag, bought in 1970 for fifty very hard to part with dollars. Despite all the trendy fanfare infused into this brand’s styling today, their essentials collection remains true to its sports minded origins. It’s the contemporary design elements that leave the original concept intact but take its function to a whole new level. I needed the bag for my trip to Paris. I am leaving tomorrow for my semiannual coverage of the Salon International de la Lingerie and this reminded me that I had better take mental note of the critical items I need to bring in order to keep my mission on track. Of course there is a facile laptop, shoes worthy of marathon walking and for me, underwear that pledges maximum comfort and fortitude during long working days. Starting with the overnight flight and hours of shopping before I can check into my hotel, I need to know that my bra will endure 24 hours of G force support. That is why I am wearing my new Fantasie Eclipse underwire spacer balcony bra on the plane. Based on the tried and true Rebecca t-shirt bra genetics, Eclipse has been updated with a sexier décolleté and re-engineered with a more generous wire allowing it to sit lower on the side bone. This innovation solves a problem with top bulge for women size 30-40, C-G cups. Just like my new handbag, re-tooled to accommodate modern necessities ( phone, tablet, kindle and more) my eclipse bra is as smooth and supportive as its older sister with just a few more pleasurable assets.
