We were all set to post a Parfait Lingerie Spotlight this month about the new Elissa bridal bustier; but, alas, ‘the best laid plans often go awry’. We are deep into what should have been a robust wedding season, but the Coronavirus took a full-frontal attack on the ‘old normal’. We have been forced to adapt.

Fact is, despite our at … Read More
Searching for sun bonnets for my granddaughters last week on Etsy.com, I happened across some Shadowline® vintage lingerie produced in the 1950’s through 70’s.

It has been nearly three years since I first featured Ukrainian brand Apilat here in the Gallery, and quite frankly, after you see what they’ve been up to, you will agree that was far too long to wait.
