Fashionistas Have Sweet Dreams in Vintage Lingerie
Posted in: Uncategorized  | The term lingerie comes from the Old French linge, which referred to scandalous underclothes. Though the term was not in widespread use until the 1850s, the history of lingerie itself started centuries earlier, back in ancient Egypt around 3000 BC. And while the choice for men may center around something as simple as boxers or briefs, we women have so much more to consider: peignoirs, chemises, nighties, camisoles, slips, crinolines and teddies — both racy and demure. Now we gals know that buying luxurious lingerie is not necessarily practical, but we also know that this form of self-indulgence can have a subconscious impact on the way we look and feel — even if no one gets to witness our underpinnings. So choose one of these beauties from past decades and bring on some sweet dreams. Just click the slideshow to see the selection. |
