Mon intérêt pour la mode, et donc pour la lingerie, est né de ma passion pour les “Robes de Princesses”. J’ai donc toujours eu un faible pour les robes d’époque. Dés que j’ai découvert la lingerie, je l’ai vue comme une extension possible de ces fameuses robes de princesses: si je ne pouvais pas m’habiller comme Marie-Antoinette et ses congénères fictives dans ma vie de tous les jours, je pouvais au moins porter des dessous qu’elles n’auraient pas reniés. De fait, cette sélection est assez personnelle, dans la mesure où elle incarne ma vision de la lingerie, qui repose beaucoup sur le style et la confiance en soi et pas du tout sur le sexe. Elle a été assez longue à réunir mais ça a été plutôt divertissant donc je pourrais réitérer ce thème dans 6 mois ou un an, à condition que vous l’appréciez autant que moi!
My interest for Fashion, and thus for Lingerie, grew out of my love for “Princesses’ Dresses”. Period dressing has therefore always been quite special to me. As soon as I discovered lingerie, I understood it as an extension of these Princesses’ Dresses: if I wasn’t able to dress like Marie Antoinette and her fictional counterparts in my day-to-day life, I could wear lingerie worthy of them. As a result, this selection is quite personal for it embodies my vision of lingerie, all about style and self-confidence and not at all about sex. It was really time-consuming to put together but the process was pretty enjoyable so I might reiterate this theme in 6 month or one year, provided you like it as much as I do!
