Louisa Bracq Julia full cup bra and panty as featured on Lingerie Briefs

I picked up embroidery as a serious hobby several years ago, so the minute I stepped into the Louisa Bracq booth at Curve I knew that I was experiencing this craft in a different way. Embroidery has always been a critical element of lingerie design, but the embroidery at the foundation of the Louisa Bracq brand is unique. It is the epicenter of their DNA. It is … Read More

LoveSuze lingerie as featured on Lingerie Briefs

It was quite serendipitous that, during a Curve seminar last February, I found myself sitting next to Suzanne Macbale, founder, and designer of the nascent LoveSuze brand.

Pretty Polly’s new Eco-Wear line caught my attention because simple, comfort lingerie is clearly on the consumer radar. This is a collection of seamless, soft bras, tights and bodysuits  made with Amni Soul Eco, the only biodegradable polyamide yarn in the world.

Natori Caftans as featured on Lingerie Briefs

Completely immersed in a total lockdown for almost 3 months, of course we re-directed our editorial calendar. Even though comfort was already the merchandising focus for Lingerie Briefs, cocooning was not high on my radar in February. Stating the obvious, that has changed, I believe possibly forever. In late April, I turned to Natori to reassess the caftan business for which they have long been renown. … Read More
