J’adore Les Jupons de Tess… how sexy is this French lingerie line? I am obsessed!
Les Jupons de Tess is a French lingerie label creating collections inspired by the elegance of the 18th century woman. It is an era characterised by the ‘Art de la toilette’ and female ‘coquetterie’. Symbols of the period, such as frills and ribbons, adorn the various styles. These “Boudoir” collections have been updated to create a glamorous range of corsetry and lingerie for a woman who, depending on her mood, wants to be flirtatious, seductive or mischievous. The features that most strongly evoke this period include bodices with fitted corsets, the use of silk, the influence of English fashion, pieces in sheer cotton, high-waisted chiffon gowns…
The result is a delicate collection, using finely worked, elegant and luxurious fabrics. Layers of chiffon, “Leavers” lace and silks combine to create a couture feel.
