French Cancan
If you have not seen or heard about the French Cancan designer label, as I did not, a few months ago then you are in for a real treat! French Cancan blends the traditional feel of lingerie – the ambiance – with modern fabrics and materials to create a pleasurable wearing and viewing experience. I stumbled upon their site while trying to find some new companies to add to the site and I immediately added them to our list of companies. A certain seductive and playful nature are fused into the designs of their lingerie.
Their lingerie design styles range form simple bra and garter sets to accessories like lace gloves and stockings for the full bodied effect; seduction from head to toe. Unfortunately the site is in French and I have very little experience in reading French so some of our information may be less than accurate. It seems French Cancan is owned and operated by a company called Tand’M but I have not found much information on this company – if you know of this company please let us know and we will give you credit and a link on our site.
I really enjoy the designs from French Cancan as they seem to just elegant enough to satisfy my refined side but still playful enough to keep me enticed. The designs are well rounded as they could work for a variety of reasons, although many of their designs are truly bedroom attire. The selection of collections is smaller than a large design house like La Perla or Triumph, but good things come in small packages. Check out French Cancan or the images below….
Eres – Playful French Lingerie
Irene Leroux started Eres as a swimsuit shop which was unheard of in 1968, her success soon followed. Her styles were simple, understated and uniquely modern; all natural, no padding and no trick sewing to gain a different effect. This was very original for its time.
Soon after its inception, Irene’s designs were being purchased by American retailers such as Bergdorf Goodman for their playfulness and simplicity. No money went into advertising as she relied upon word of mouth, again, this was not common. From here over 600 stores carry the line and in 1998 Irene launched Eres in the same philosophy as her swimwear; simple, modern, sophisticated and most of all natural.
She took it upon herself to create new lighter fabrics for her designs that would provide elegance, gently textures and fantastic support. The new range was met with great success and is now known for its simplicity of design and comfortable fit without sacrificing style and femininity.
The SS 09 collection features floral motifs and light airy laces coupled with neutral and bold colors. This collection embodies the idea of simplicity blended perfectly with sexuality. All of Eres designs are modern and utilize the absolute best in fabrics and materials such as Calais for Chantilly lace and Le Puy for spindle lace. Not to mention the softest fabrics designed for her collections.
We highly recommend any item from Eres collections of swimwear or lingerie for its great fit and truly natural styles.

Vannina Vesperini
Vannina Vesperini started her label in 1996 and has been at the forefront of lingerie for some time now. She was one of the forerunners of “lingerie as outerwear” and catapulted the trend into mainstream. We all know this trend as we have seen gorgeous bustiers and corsets worn over blouses and as clothing themselves, not to mention the use of silk and satin chemises or camisoles worn under business suit jackets to add a bit of femininity to an otherwise drab business environment. This concept has been adopted by many of her competitors and peers in the industry; it can be seen in almost any collection these days.
Vannina employs the highest quality fabrics and craftsmanship in her designs. They are not only beautifully crafted but practical. All of her bras are designed to be worn under form fitting clothing without and visible lines. Her designs of halter bras are perfect for under a blazer, or you could choose a sophisticated silk tunic for a night on the town.
Vannina has won many awards and has been recognized by multiple publications. In 1999 she won the ‘Oscar of Creation’ award and was nominated for “Best Creator of the Year 2004” by Paris Capital de la Creation and International Lingerie. Her studio, VV Studio, is made up of graphic designers, stylists and pattern creators who deliver their expertise to brands around the world by adapting to their trends and creating lingerie to suit her partner brands. To top it all off she was featured in Cosmopolitan magazine in November of this year and will be featured in Marie Claire in January of 2009.
