Lingerie and sleepwear designers stretch to offer their best for Fall '09, whether it be the best fabrics and fit in basics that can be worn for years to come or the most detail-riddled sexy fashion that excites an impulse buy. The spectrum of color ranges from eye-popping bright reds and pinks to earthy tones inspired by global destinations.
Around the World
Ready-to-wear's continuing bohemian lifestyle look inspires lingerie designers this season to dream about global locales through animal prints and ethnic motifs such as batik, mosaics, filigree and swirling paisley.
Basic Instinct
The classic nightshirts, robes, sleepwear chemises and camisole sets get ultra luxe as customers seek the coziest of basics with longevity. The new neutral shades of gray, champagne and crème add variety to the essential black and white offerings.
Drama Queen
Lingerie designers go for show-stopping, decadent drama in vibrant colors coupled with sexy black. Sheer lace, rich velvet and silk are paired with ruching, ruffles and ribbons for maximum details.
Center of Attention
The retro cut of high-waist panties continues into Fall in the classic colors of pink, white and black. Details are focused toward the middle with center panels, wide transparent lace and ribbon that laces up.
Light as a Feather
Whimsical, fluttering feathers and floating leaves make for a sophisticated imprint on luxurious robes, sheer lingerie and comfy loungewear.
