5 Mistakes New Lingerie Brands Make
I started my ethically-made loungewear line she and reverie at 23 years old. Before then, I freelanced in NYC’s garment district for a very short amount of time. But starting a line was my dream, of course! And other designers were doing it, many with far less knowledge than I had. So I thought, “Why am I not following my dream right now? Why can’t I do this, too?” I […]

Lingerie Brand Review: d.bleu.dazzled Toxic Catsuit
Disclosure: I purchased this item for myself. All opinions are my own. Whether you're a lingerie addict or not, you’ve probably already seen d.bleu.dazzled lingerie. Designer Destiney Bleu’s designs are frequently worn by artists like Beyonce, Lizzo, Rihanna, J.Lo, and Megan Thee Stallion. This Black-owned lingerie brand's skin tone catsuits, stockings, and bodysuits are practically iconic by now. Available in multiple skin tones and covered in shimmering crystals, they give […]

Loungewear Review: Lunya Washable Silk Double V Jumpsuit
Disclosure: The Lingerie Addict purchased this jumpsuit for the purpose of this review. All thoughts are my own. Loungewear start-up Lunya offers simple loungewear in highly-functional fabrics and chic, modern designs. They’re best known for their “washable silk” pieces, which you can ostensibly wash with the rest of your laundry. Lunya offers the same aesthetic and ease as many Millennial-targeted startups: A curated selection with a focus on function, rather […]

French Lingerie Review: Fifi Chachnil Babyloo
On my trip to Paris in 2015, visiting a Fifi Chachnil boutique was at the very top of my list. And if you’ve ever been, you know it did not disappoint. Each inch of the boutique is perfect candy pink and shiny vintage gold. Crystal chandeliers pop out of the diaphanous pink curtains covering every wall. Pink feathers float from the ceiling and everything’s hazy, like you’re in a film […]

Is Kim Kardashian's Shapewear Line Worth Trying? Reviewing The SKIMS Sculpting Bodysuit
When I first heard that Kim Kardashian was launching shapewear line SKIMS, I thought it was genius. A celebrity known for her iconic figure, giving her fans the opportunity to have that figure themselves? Perfect. Turns out, she wasn’t stopping at shapewear. Today, the SKIMS line ranges from bralettes and t-shirt bras to cozy loungewear, nude hosiery, and more, with most foundational garments offered in eight shades of nude. As […]

Empreinte Melody Seamless Lace Bra Review: French Luxury to an H Cup

This French brand makes bras up to a European H cup. All of their styles are made in France, and the quality is known for being impeccable.

Things I Like: Trashy Naked Carousel Stretch Corset
Happy (Belated) New Year, everyone! This is one of many drafts that's been sitting in the backend of TLA for months now. I got burned out in a bad way towards the end of last year. I think everything *waves hands generally about* just caught up to me, and I focused on some less visible work just to keep things humming along a bit during. The good news is, those […]

Lounge attire is incredibly versatile, allowing for any number of ensembles once we eventually (and safely) […]

So You Want to Reach a Queer Audience: Do's and Don'ts for Lingerie Companies
With increased attention in news and social media to corporate practices and the power of “voting with your dollar” to support companies that share your ethics, many companies find themselves needing to articulate and represent their values in more visible and vocal ways. Similarly, more visible attention to the rights of LGBTQIA+ folks has also brought attention to the buying power of the “pink dollar.” As a queer and genderqueer […]
