We love the annual Curve Expo in New York, and this year was no exception: Hundreds of wickedly wonderful lingerie and swimwear brands came together to showcase next year’s collections. Our stellar brands were in the mix, of course, with some of their most beautiful collections to date. (A reminder that the superior design and craftsmanship of French brands have been on the cutting edge of lingerie fashion for centuries - literally.) 

The highlight of the Lingerie Française experience was our super cool annual dinner at Manhattan's lovely landmark Ladurée Soho, where leading New York fashion bloggers rubbed elbows with French reps from top lingerie brands that included Aubade, Empreinte, Maison Lejaby, and Lise Charmel. As usual, Ladurée regaled everyone with fantastic food and drink on their fairytale patio garden, then culminated dinner with their signature macaroons. (Impossible to each just one!) And no one left empty-handed: Lingerie, Paris fashion city guides, and other sweet surprises were part of our own trademark goody bags.



The cherry on the cake was the opportunity for everyone to do real “old fashioned” social networking: Coming together in person to clink champagne glasses and get to know one another in the old world and world-class charm of Manhattan’s best Parisian gem. That, my friends, is truly French.
