Rosapois
Rosapois is a collection under the name of Valery that delivers beautifully crafted designs of lingerie and swimwear. The Rosapois collection is split into 4 ranges: Rosapois, Rosapois Light, Rosapois Mare and Night Party. Overall the ranges of the Rosapois collection are fun and have a youthful feeling to them, but are not without sophistication and a little refinement. The Rosapois range is predominantly bra sets and a few camisole sets as well. It seems there is only a single item in the Rosapois Light range; a bra set.
The site has some fantastic music and is well designed. I don’t have a lot of information on Rosapois as I cannot speak Italian, or read it for that matter. It is most likely that Rosapois was started after Valery and to fill a gap in the younger market in europe and the Americas. Rosapois may be found all over the world including the Middle East in Qatar and the Far East in select specialty boutiques.

Marie Jo Summer 2009
Marie Jo has their new collections ready to be worn! The collection is,of course, made up of beautiful pieces adorned with lace and detailing for a truly feminine style. We would expect nothing less from Marie Jo with their almost 100 hundred years of experience in the lingerie industry; the company’s roots were founded in 1919. The “Cate” range is made up of fine everyday lingerie for the professional and the “Jane” range is a bit more glamorous but can still be an everyday solution. The “Jane” range is one of my personal favorites as it is simple and has just enough detailing to bring out the sex appeal in everyone who wears it.

Jane
The “Diane” range has an almost seaside feeling to it in bold blue-green colors and one of the sexiest bustiers I’ve seen. The bras of this range come in balconnet, push-up, and strapless, while the knickers come in Rio briefs, g-strings, thong and luxury string styles. The “Twiggy” range is very playful and available in a wide assortment of colors and styles. Brides can look forward to the ranges of “Ines,” “Audrey” and “Greta” for the wedding day needs. These are gorgeous bridal lingerie collections that embody the essence of bridal.

Andra Fly Away Babydoll
Andra lingerie is gorgeous Italian style at its best. Simple designs and attention to details brings this newly found designer to our foremost attention. Flirty Tap pant sets in sophisticated silks and lace trimmings produces and overtly feminine look and feel. Some of the designs are a creative blend of lace and silk in babydolls and chemise. The Andra Lingerie collection seems to be only nightwear and bedroom attire but the Basic range is made up of predominantly slips and half-slips. Enjoy the images below form the 2007 collection.

Eve’s Gift – Australian Boutique
Eve’s Gift was started in 2005 by Carley and Paul Davies when they moved back to Adelaide. They noticed that there wasn’t a lingerie boutique in town and decided with Carley’s background in fashion design and Paul’s background in marketing it was an opportunity they could not miss. Eve’s Gift opened in December of that year and they have been providing gorgeous and sophisticated lingerie for the citizens of Adelaide.

Eraot Push Up Bra from Ewa Bien
Mimi Bra from Freya
It is not that there were no stores to buy underwear; in fact there were plenty of stores to buy day to day lingerie and bras, but no where that had the extra sophistication or seduction. The inventory at Eve’s Gift is full of world class designers such as Sally Jones, Ewa Bien, Freya, Fantasie and Simone Perle to name a few. A great selection of maternity lingerie from HOTmilk and a good bridal section as well compliment their collections and ranges quite well. The site is simple and easy to use showcasing the lingerie designs. Not to worry they ship all over the world for a flat fee, about 10 Australian dollars.

Eprise by Lise Charmel
Lise Charmel is the culmination of decades of experience and fine French and European styling. The designs are always ultra feminine, sophisticated and just enough seduction to portray the perfect lingerie. The fine silks and laces simply add to the existing design’s feeling and appeal. The attention paid to small and, what some would call, minor aspects of design bring each and every piece of lingerie to life!
Eprise by Lise Charmel is a collection solely designed for full figured and curvy women. The collection, like all the collections from Lise Charmel, is designed with the highest quality fabrics and craftsmanship. We have seen some full figured collections that just have too much fabric and coverage; Eprise certainly does not. The designs are gorgeous and cover only what is needed to be covered making them sexy, sophisticated and desirable. While the Spring collection is not yet on the Lise Charmel website, we do have the A/W 2009 collection available. Hopefully the spring collections will be on the site soon; we cannot wait!
A few pieces of the collection can be found at Nancy Meyer.
