Luscious Lingerie ~ Tia Lyn
Struggling all my life with the fashion limitations confronting well-endowed women, I spent many more years than necessary frustrated by the Western profile of style defined by the “less is best” crazed media. It wasn’t until I began my college journey into the History of Art that I realized that beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder. 400 years ago, Peter Paul Rubens defined feminine mystique by painting female pulchritude in all its naked allure. His subjects, so often full figured, helped emboss this curvy artistry as a standard of style for decades; thus, the literary gift of Rubenesque to the vernacular.
Perhaps my generation was caught in the skinny scam, but luckily what comes around goes around and style no longer has to worship on the altar of the model body blessed. Thin does not necessarily mean in. One look at the Tia Lyn collection of plus size lingerie (she does play fair and offer her brand to all sizes) is indicative of the growing trend for gorgeous and sexy intimates for a more zaftig body. I have known Tia since she first started her Intimate design quest; she worked for me in her early years. It was pretty evident, even then that her charisma and talent would bring her to a place worthy of notice. Just as Rubens used light and color to create his masterpieces, Tia has utilized her technical design expertise and engineered delicate, sensual underpinnings that enhance a woman of any size.
