Oh, Paris!

Emily, Jane & Fifi Chachnil!

Jane & I had a lovely trip to Paris! We visited with & ordered from favorite lines including Eres, Fleur of England, Myriam Girard, Marjolaine, Fifi Chachnil, Ritratti & Cadolle - and oh so many more! 

We also scouted about and discovered many gorgeous new lingerie lines (including custom pieces for the shop!) as well as some decadent cashmere outerwear & 100% silk hosiery that will combat the autumn chill sumptuously. 

Below are some more photos from our journey... Enjoy!

Entering the Salon International de la Lingerie

Miles of booths in Pret a Porte! So much to discover.

A seamstress constructs a bra on-site at Lise Charmel. Did you know that there are up to 45 pieces in each bra?!? No wonder we love Lise Charmel so much!

Pondering all our custom ordering options at Sybaris... It took all four of these women to write our order!

A summer preview: we've gone dotty!

Dear Portland: are you ready for custom Paisley umbrellas?

Jane & Emily take a break at Willi's Wine Bar!

We were fortunate enough to see this Opera at the Opera Garnier in Paris... It was magnificent!
The Chagall ceiling at the Opera Garnier...

Such an enormous, ornate building!

We also made time to go explore the Palace of Versailles while we were in Paris... What opulence!

The Hall of Mirrors at the Palace of Versailles...

We are so excited for all our Fall/Winter 2011 shipments, and happy to share our journey with you!

We're both back in the shop, which is full of beauties for Valentines day... Can't wait to see you all, and share a champagne toast!

xo, Emily
