Toad Lillie 'Vamp' Quarter-Cup, Garter Belt & Bikini |
On August 27th we held a trunkshow for couture lingerie line Toad Lillie at Jane's Vanity. Having carried the line before, I knew her pieces would be beautiful: magnificently crafted, saucy, treasures to behold.
I never expected this.

With her Sophomore collection, designer Laurie Shapiro has maintained the same flirty insouciance as her initial designs, but added an extra level of sophistication. Like the refined older sister of her first collection, this is lingerie for a woman well-versed in seduction who knows exactly what she wants: opulence, attention to detail, and a seductive yet flattering cut.
Her latest collection is quite appropriately named... Femmes Fatales.

Now in an extended size range from 32B to 38DD, this line feels like absolute decadence. Silk lined cups and gussets, rolled & French hems, not a serged seam on them: these pieces are entirely made by hand by the designer, Laurie Shapiro. The attention to detail that is provided is absolutely astounding: from idea to inception, every step is cultivated under her watchful eye.

Those that attended the trunk show have already had a chance to place their custom orders, which should be in the shop within 3-4 weeks. Fortunately, we have placed an order of these treasures to arrive in the shop before the holidays - perfect for celebratory unveiling... We're also happy to special-order pieces wherever possible, if you've fallen in love with any piece of this group don't hesitate to contact us & we will try to accommodate you!
