KAS Price Increase - Starting Next Week

KAS silks are an intimate essential for many. It's not just a fine, silk knit that feels luxurious on the skin, it also wicks moisture away from the body keeping you cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

Knowing how many love to have these silken underthings to pull out of their drawer everyday, we wanted to warn you: KAS is going up in price by 20% - 30% starting next week. This is a price increase from our supplier, so you'll want to stop by and pick up your KAS as soon as possible.

Bamjamz - Something New Under the Covers

Sure, in the winter it's nice to curl up in flannel pjs, but as the weather warms we need something a little lighter under the covers; enter Bamjamz.

Bamjamz is a new line of rayon-bamboo sleepwear, bringing contemporary cool to bed. To the right, you can see a Bamjamz tunic, designed as an extra long shirt so you can wear it with, or without, the matching leggings.

We're also carrying the Classic Signature, full-length, pants. With a drawstring waist, they're perfect for nighttime, daytime or yoga-time.

Bamjamz is about "energy, youthfulness, and waking up in the morning with a smile on your face," according to Brad Rudin, the co-founder and creative director of Bamjamz.

We're also carrying short-tees with new, hip prints, one in garden green and gold, that might make you believe Rudin and his team are onto something. Or, at least, that's what Elle Canada, the Globe and Mail and The Hollywood Minute seem to think.

The love-fest might be due to the fabric: it's sustainable, feels like silk, soft as cashmere and washes like cotton. If you're looking for youthful, comfortable, contemporary, loungewear, as usual, we have you covered.

New Marie Jo L'Aventure - Maximus

We're starting to see more of our spring and summer fashion pieces arriving through the doors of Secret Drawers Lingerie. This week it's Maximus by Marie Jo L'Aventure.

This is a classy look with a twist. The Maximus stays contemporary with tone-on-tone gray colouring and a subtle print on the cup.

Marie Jo's little surprise is found on its split straps: freely moving round and cylindrical beads. This touch of whimsy, only seen up close, reminds us that even a charcoal gray suit needs a flash of fun.

We're carrying this seasonal piece up to an F cup and have matching panty and thong available.

Dragons Should Have Gotten Naked

If you've been in our store recently, you might have noticed Naked, the new boxer briefs for men, on our shelves.

Those of you who are fans of the Dragon's Den on CBC may remember the Naked Boxer Brief Clothing Company from September 2009. Back then, the Dragon venture capitalists decided not to invest in Naked, but if 2010 is any indication, they might be regretting that decision.

Naked ended up raising more money than they asked for from the Dragons and went on to start manufacturing their seamless Italian microfiber underwear in Vancouver, BC.

Recently the Dragon's Den caught up with Naked at their Canada launch party in Toronto.

Toronto, Canada Launch Party at Gotstyle - September 29, 2010
Joel Primus, president, CEO and founder of Naked had this to say about life since the Dragon's Den:
... after the Den, when I flew home, I was working a sewage pumping job, now I’m living the high-fashion life, it’s fantastic. We’re going to hit a million gross sales this year.

... now we have six products already out there and 12 more coming down the pipeline and we’re in stores across Canada.
And Secret Drawers Lingerie is proud to be one of them.

We have to echo Primus's thoughts when he added, "Dragons, you missed your chance to get Naked."

Drop by; you don't want to miss yours.

Simone Perele Bagatelle Nightdress in Rouge Kiss

Thanks to everyone who joined us yesterday for our fitting clinic. We met lots of new people and perhaps made a Valentine's Day worth remembering for a few.

But if you're looking to surprise her with something red tomorrow, pop by and take a look at the Simone Perele Bagatelle nightdress.

The Bagatelle nightdress by Simone Perele was inspired by the garden at the Château de Bagatelle, a small château on the Western outskirts of Paris, famous for its annual international rose competition.

This sophisticated, French muse explains the nightdress's attention to fine detail including the scrolling floral embroidery that continues along each strap.

This nightdress shows off a sometimes overlooked sensual area: her back. The v-line down the back of this nightdress shows off this beautiful feature and comes to a point, filling in the small of her back with fine embroidery. The hem is scalloped and there is a small slit in the front for further oh là là.

We have this night dress in black and the most sensuous rouge kiss. Drop by to surprise her tomorrow, or on a completely unexpected day.
