Timeless Style: Valentine's Lingerie

Valentine's Day is just around the corner and reading about the collaboration between Charlotte Olympia and Agent Provocateur's capsule collection Flirty had me wondering what else is available in the world of romantic lingerie.

Naughty Makes Nice - New York Times - The like-minded British labels Charlotte Olympia and Agent Provocateur have joined forces on a lingerie collection. Flirty, a little naughty — and in time for Valentine’s Day — it includes a leopard teddy, panties with the signature Charlotte Olympia kitty face and footwear to be worn in and out of the bedroom, like a pair of pull-on black stiletto boots. A favorite look of the Olympia founder Charlotte Dellal and the Agent Provocateur creative director Sarah Shotton is a lingerie set with bra and briefs in a web design, another Charlotte Olympia signature, and removable suspenders and G-string. “I love a matching set of lingerie,” Ms. Dellal said, “and this ’50s-inspired set, with high-waisted briefs and suspen­ders to hold up your stockings, is a nod to a bygone era I love.”

The Kimono

After the kaftan, my second favorite glamour garment is the kimono and was delighted to discover that Agent Provocateur has some super-glammy options.  I'm a La Perla girl from way back, but could definitely see switching it up with one of these rather alluring robes!
