Perhaps you heard the news that legendary fashion designer Andres Sarda had passed away earlier this month at age 90. This deserved a mention on Lingerie Briefs, particularly since I’ve featured his namesake brand in the Gallery a few times over the years (typically I don’t do repeat features on most brands, but I’m a fan!). https://lingeriebriefs.com/?s=andres+sarda

It’s a challenge in January in France, as the entire retail apparel industry is on sale obliterating most of the new collections.

“Won’t you come into my garden? I would like my roses to see you.”
Richard Brinsley Sheridan, 19th century Irish playwright and politician
There they are, jam-packed profusions of them, jostling for space as they shamelessly beckon passersby in front of every self-respecting bodega in New York. I’m talking about roses (and other flowers too, but mainly roses), brightening our dingy streets—and our lives–in these, fingers crossed, waning months of Covid. … Read More
