Fashion Illustrations of Surreal Lingerie by Tina Wilson as featured on Lingerie Briefs

Our collective reality has set in. We are discovering hobbies, crafts and cooking and reacquainting ourselves with nature. We have put experiences above the material, will it last? What’s next?

I’m betting on the next phase, the phase we are entering, now that  the reality of covid life has sunk in. This new phase will be a time of escapism, fantasy, and surrealism.  A the time where … Read More

Chantelle Norah Underwire molded t-shirt bra as featured on Lingerie Briefs

Here’s what I admire about the Chantelle brand: they understand the American consumer.

And, they get the sizing issue, the … Read More

Curve Connect as featured on Lingerie Briefs

There is nothing quite like the live interplay between people and product. For a merchant, discovery is energizing: a promise of profit and inspiration. But Covid19 has interrupted all of this, forced us to reexamine priorities and to envision new paths to success.
