Mercedes Benz Fashion Week NYC: La Perla Lingerie

La Perla showcased their collection of luxury lingerie on the first day of Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. Using the finest fabrics such as Leaver's lace, silk soutache, and frastaglio, La Perla's lingerie is for women who want to feel sexy, confident, and elegant. Styled with Veronica Lake hair, and a lipstick that took 3 years to find the right red, the girls were a siren call back to the 30's and 40's. Think Rita Hayworth.

A range of panties were shown. From high waisted briefs, boy shorts and thongs showed the same workmanship and attention to detail as the flowing babydolls, robes and transparent nightgowns.
The craftsmanship on their work is high. Each piece is handsewn, the fabrics are carefully considered, the designs are sophisticated. La Perla isn't shopping at Target for underwear, and maybe we should all splurge once in awhile.
Watch the video. Edward A. Nobody upstages the reporter, by showing he really knows his stuff.

Is Alessandro dell'Acqua still the designer ? Anyway it remains my favorite lingerie brand, it's even accessible, which makes it perfect !

Boy, did the reporter blow it or what? That was something she should have found out --she had the CEO for crissakes!

I love LaPerla too. Their site has good sales, and you can even find them on bare necessities. I've even found pieces at Nordstrom Rack.

Hourglass and LaPerla are a great team. Great makeup! The veil primers and foundation are the best!
