This spectacular “Instant Couture” line was inspired by the opulence of precious, ornate motifs and the enchantment felt during a stroll under the arcades in Florence by the Lise Charmel design team. Instant Couture harmoniously pairs tiered arches and artistic curves. A line with very upscale, contemporary elegance through the soft colors, and refined sensuality. The collection is extensive and includes 4 bra selections, 6 panty styles plus a nightie, camisole, blouse and shorts. (Ellen Lewis was also inspired by the collection recently.)… Read More

It has been awhile since I compared a museum worthy work of art to a piece of lingerie. But when I saw the Lise Charmel Spring 2018 Fleurs de Jungle Collection at Curve last August, it was an easy make. This lush jungle print evokes Henri Rousseau’s 1910 painting, The Dream. A masterpiece emblematic of much of Rousseau’s work, the chimerical imagery is a harbinger of surrealism. Complicated color compositions (this painting is reputed to have 22 shades of green) and intriguing juxtapositions create an exotic landscape.… Read More
