Delightfully Moody ~ Paloma Casile

By ALISON CONNOLLY

As most of you know, today is Halloween; a holiday that delights in shadowy figures and spooky costumes, and an evening when celebrations run late into the wee hours when the chilled air is filled with mystery.  Rather than go the obvious lingerie route for this special day (i.e. risqué, tasteless costumes), I wanted to present a brand that captured the moody mystery of All Hallows’ Eve.   Granted, there’s nothing spooky about Paloma Casile lingerie, but it’s definitely a brand known for its sensual dark images that are often set in dramatic black & white.  My initial impression once I discovered this brand was that it must be an editorial photographer’s dream to shoot.  Each piece by Paloma Casile easily exudes sophistication and luxury, and the details of her lace or beadwork just begged to be photographed.  It comes as no surprise that Paloma is based in France, where each collection is designed using traditional corsetry techniques.  Her background includes a degree (and high accolades) from ESMOD Paris, and professional experience with esteemed French labels such as Chantal Thomass and Cadolle.  Paloma Casile has created a delightfully moody world that we are eager to explore!  Join me in that journey starting with these striking images…
