ID Sarrieri bra, Vannina Vesperini panty, Patrick Cox shoes (so pretty!!)The photos & lingerie are supposed to embody the cabaret life during the Jazz Age. Here's an excerpt from the magazine that relates to many of the high-fashion pieces we have at Faire Frou Frou:
Too ostentatious for its intentions to be limited to wearing where it cannot be seen, too revealing to be functional as protection against even temperate weather, and too beautiful to place within the parameters of functionality, lingerie that embodies the subversive cabaret lifestyle survives today. And where does it live? It coyly sneaks out from beneath outerwear and dances of the stage of the imagination ( a place where style exists without the threat of extinction).
For those of you who think you need a boyfriend/husband to justify purchasing beautiful lingerie, this quote is for you! ;-)
