We are happy to share that all of our Fall 2011 New Arrivals from Fifi Chachnil are now available on our website!  Fifi Chachnil is one of the first brands we carried at Faire Frou Frou, and nearly 7 years later the brand is still going strong in our boutique probably because it so perfectly captures our frou-frou essence!  The first image shows a little French lesson we put together, sharing the essential lingerie terms every fashionista should know.  It also displays styles that we have at our shop, which cover the fundamentals of every lingerie wardrobe: lace, silk and ruffles!
You can see some of our favorite pieces from the Fall collection, some of which are not shown in this post, on our website by clicking here.  Also, you will find one of our favorite pieces, which is the panty below (Le Desir Ruffle Brief), on our website.  We found this photo by Pierre Dal Corso online last year and were so happy to learn that those darling black panties were by Fifi!  We were even happier to learn that Fifi Chachnil included that style panty in her Fall collection...and of course we now have it at our boutique!

It's always a pleasure to present the latest collection from Carine Gilson; one of the most high-end luxury lingerie designers in the world. The Fall/Winter 09/10 pieces are perfection, from the delicate gold Chantilly lace that tastefully trims each piece, to the luxurious hand-dyed satin silks. Carine actually designs her own lace, so it's just another exclusive you get when wearing her items. Our favorites this season include the asymmetrical chemise and the gorgeous fringe shawls! Actually, with Carine Gilson, it's hard to choose a favorite when we know that each piece is handmade with the precision and craftsmanship that is practically a lost art in our modern world. Another perk is that most of these pieces can be worn as outerwear...because Carine Gilson is meant to be shown off!

We were surprised to find some new images of Strumpet & Pink lingerie, and naturally wanted to share with you! These are some of the most creative panties around, and in some of the most vibrant colors you will see. All of these pictures are by UK photographer Elizia Volkmann, shot at the Fernery Glasshouse in Cheshire.

Welcome Spring!











What better way to kick off the new season with these gorgeous pieces from the new Carine Gilson collection! The second we saw this collection we knew we had to share with you. Truly, does it get any better than this?
For those of you new to our blog, Carine Gilson lingerie is handmade with precision and perhaps the finest craftsmanship one can find in lingerie (sharing the couture spotlight with fine labels such as Damaris, Strumpet & Pink, Guia la Bruna, etc).
