In this Lingerie Pictorial we praise Eros, the winged warrior of love. After a tumultuous year of isolation and discord, we celebrate life with these images of a woman in all her sumptuous beauty. Passionate about her future and flush with desire she is a little bit naughty and just enough nice. The world is reopening, and a unique new energy has begun to surface as brands seek a balance between sensuality and sensibility. In this photo editorial, Stephanie shares her perspective on this emerging vitality.… Read More

Last Fall, as the Pandemic was rounding its 3rd quarter of consumer chaos, Stephanie and I decided that it might be nice to offer the brands a New Years editorial, our treat. Response was positive, but access to samples presented a challenge. We were ok with this as the market message of “Back to Basics” was clear.  We could really use whatever was on hand. We hired models, secured a studio, and set a December shoot plan and then, Covid began to crest.… Read More

In early March as the world shut down, we, at Lingerie Briefs, decided to reach out to the Intimate Apparel market and create a Lingerie Portfolio for any brand choosing to participate. On May 27th and June 4th, we published a two-part photo series that included 26 companies. Without the accoutrements of a traditional shoot, Stephanie Hynes shot the selected styles in her home as still life images. Our vision was to capture the character of each piece and celebrate the DNA of each brand.… Read More

I have had multiple conversations with specialty stores during this time during the Coronavirus lock-down. The out of the box initiatives they have launched to ignite their businesses are inspiring. The ability to rethink how to move forward has impacted us all. Attitudes are changing. New perspectives are emerging. This is exactly what we have tried to achieve with our two part ‘Still Life’ Lingerie Editorial. Stephanie Hynes, who shot these images, was challenged to capture the essence of these  styles in her home without any of the requisite photographic tools.… Read More

As a result, we are splitting this editorial into 2 parts, today and next Wednesday, June 3.

Shapewear Breaks Free

At the beginning of the last decade, when we launched Lingerie Briefs, the shapewear business was having a moment. Powered by the Spanx craze, a concept of control without the infrastructure of a girdle, shapewear began to appear everywhere in the market. The plethora of companies responding to the Spanx phenomenon was overwhelming. I remember one Curve show where it seemed as if half the stands were shapewear brands. Subsequently, the focus on the category seemed to dissipate, remaining strong for the few brands whose heritage was defined by solution lingerie; brands like Rago, Triumph, Va Bien, Le Mystere and Janira to name just a few.… Read More

Light as the Artist’s Muse

Camille Roucher Lingerie photographed by Stephanie Hynes Photography for Lingerie BriefsCamille Roucher

Capturing the essence of an object by the use of lighting (or its absence) is a defining tool in the history of art. How the painter illuminates a canvas depends on the environment. Examples such as Rembrandt in the Netherlands, Caravaggio in Italy, Monet in France to name of few, clarified their visions through very specific perspectives on the use of light. Certainly, this holds true for photography and in fact, it is my opinion that light is a photographer’s muse.… Read More
