Some time ago I was at a Canyon Ranch Spa with my friend Adrienne who owned a better bra fitting boutique in the Midwest. When she saw me wearing a Prima Donna bra with (I won’t admit what brand) cotton panties, she almost had a heart attack. Dismayed, she could not believe that I, a proponent of upscale intimates would not be wearing matching underpants. This conundrum has confronted me multiple times when generous vendors offer to send me a “set” and I turn them down. There is a very simple answer and I will admit that cost enters the decision. But the real reason is that I find that the matching panties don’t fit me the way I would prefer. You see, I like the feeling of wearing nothing and the knowledge that I am, in fact, covered. I suppose this is a very “American” lingerie perspective because my European and Canadian peers disagree completely. It’s not that I don’t want to be coordinated, but for me, comfort trumps all. I know that a few panty experts have figured out the “solve” to this challenge for lingerie boutiques offering an extensive range of colors in their best-selling styles.
Now, following suit, and taking it one step further, Marie Jo L’Aventure has taken this concept to another level with the launch of “Nicky Slips”. Dyed to exactly match their Marie Jo and Marie Jo L’Aventure collections, Nicky slips (short for Knickers) are available in 6 colors, in 5 styles and sized XS-XXXL. Stitchless and Seamless, the edge of these panties are finished with special glue developed exclusively through the company’s renowned R&D department. Once on the body, the edge softens preventing any kickback while remaining supple and soft. What I like about them most is that they are an item unto themselves, promising multiple sale’s potential and that means profit.
