Daisy Days

Today, dear friends, 

although not quite our usual fare we have

for your viewing and/or purchasing pleasure 

a rather lovely piece indeed.

Although not lingerie, tis pretty, no?

While outerwear is not our typical

area of interest, or of expertise, occasionally Monsieur N.

and myself find a lovely vintage piece whilst

out exploring and simply cannot leave it behind.

Such is the case with this lovely number.

Perfect fit in all the right places ;]

And so we are offering 

what appears to be a house dress

certainly dating from the 1950s, or possibly early 60s.

Being a wrap style dress, it can fit a

very wide range of figures, although it does

appear to favor those of the larger bust.

Indeed, Moira isn't quite curvy enough to do it justice!

Pretty little daisies!

Covered in a small, sweet print of 

orange and white daisies tumbling about on a field of black

and with edges bound in matching orange tape,

this dress just exudes classic elegance.

While technically not something worn about town 

in the past, I see no reason that in our day and age 

this piece couldn't;t play the role of a lovely day dress.

Indeed, sometimes one has to throw on something suitable for those

rare trips out of the boudoir ;] so why not?

If you're interested in making the acquaintance of this piece, 

I point you in this direction!

Robin's Egg in Spring

What colour could be more perfect for spring,

my dear friends,

than robin's egg blue? Especially when paired with

the most delicious white lace?

a more modest bustline, this full slip  by Gay-Lure is 

sure to set hearts aflutter with it's lively, playful colour and pretty

 details.

What a colour!

 Lets have a look at those details:

Lace encrusted bust with embroidery between the cups!

Lace edging between the shoulders at the back!

Some of the prettiest lace I've seen from this era, at the hem!

So, if you think you'd like to get into the spring mood

with this piece, head over here! before someone else does!

Oopsies!

Ladies and Gentlemen!

It is true!

Mademoiselle M. is indeed a scatterbrain sometimes!

Such is the only possible explanation as to how she forgot to include

this lovely piece in her last post about our wares!

How could anyone forget something so pretty?

 Produced by the French Maid Lingerie Company,
and dating from approximately the 1960s, this piece is a stunner by any measure!

Cunningly constructed to show off ALL your curves!

Made of a daringly sheer, stretchy black nylon,
and trimmed in the most delicate lace imaginable,this sultry slip is
ideal for any fiery femme fatale.

The cups are all lace too! And so sheer!

So for those of you who can't get this beauty
out of your heads, head right here! to snap it up
before bidding ends!

New Listings at the eBay Emporium!

Yesterday, Mademoiselle Zeigfeld undertook the listing of 

yet more of our wares.

This time, we are a pair of two-piece sleep sets,

both of fairly free sizing.

The first is a lovely pair of powder blue nylon pyjamas,

consisting of a short sleeved jacket and trousers.

They have delightful lace trim around the collar, sleeves and pocket,

And are of a larger size, fitting a dame with a 

bust anywhere up to 44 inches, and a waist up to 38 inches.

Observe the pretty lace trim and gathers at the shoulder.

 The elastic is in great condition, and allows for a wide range of waist sizes to comfortably fit,

from 26in at the smallest, to 38 at the largest.

These Pjs are saucily sheer!

 Unfortunately, the trousers have a very faint yellow stain on the hip, 

however, this fact was taken into acount during pricing,

and they are an otherwise lovely set.

They can be found here for  those interested.

The second set we are offering today 

dates from approximately the 1960s and is of a lovely,

vibrant lemony yellow colour.

And I do mean vibrant!

Constructed of a total of four luxurious layers of nylon and trimmed in white lace,

this negligee and peignoir set is sure to please any lover of 

this time period.

 

 

 

Whilst the peignoir his high-collared, the negligee has a sweet scooped neckline.

Matching nylon ties threaded through the collars of both pieces allow 

for an adjustable, custom fit.

Indeed, this set can be comfortably be worn by 

anyone with a bust size 44 inches or less, and still look lovely!

Talk about lace!

The inner layer of both pieces is a soft, bright yellow nylon tricot,

while the outer layer is a stiffer, more sheer nylon.

All in all, a very cute set in pristine condition, it can be found right here!

Mlle. and M. Ziegfeld present...

...the first of our items available for purchase 

at that grand boutique of the internet

eBay!

First up, we have a lovely two layer black lace slip dating from 

approimately the 1940s by Simpson-Sears Charmode.

Moira makes her debute in this lovely piece!

Made of nylon tricot and lace, this piece is in excellent condition.

It sports a wonderful scalloped hem and is, 

delightfully for ladies of the more curvaceous sort, 

a larger size, being particlarily full of bust!

The light was strong that day, but please observe the lovely waist-yoke!

 For those interested, this piece can be found here.

Next, I ask you to turn your attention, ladies and gentlemen,

to this lovely confection of pleats and lace.

Dating from approximately the 1950s, this piece by Gay-Lure 

sports all the details that make vintage lingerie of the period so delightful,

including a great fit, pretty lace, and best of all, delectable sheer crystal pleats at the bust AND hem.

As if that weren't enough, the hem is also scalloped!

Again, this piece is a lovely larger size and great condition.

Made of a soft, sheer nylon tricot, it is sure to delight any wearer

[or individual lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the wearer ;) ] 

These crystal pleated cups are capable of coddling a very bountiful bustline :)

 For those interested, one can find this piece here.

Finally, [for today] we are offering

this pretty little ivory confection. 

Just look at that lace!

Made by the delightful Dorsay-Montex, this half slip is of a 

smaller size, to fit those petite dames out there.

Again, this piece is also made of nylon tricot, and it's details are swoon-inducing.

With a soft peachy lace appliqued on top of even softer ivory,

this slip has a quiet, reserved charm to it,

sure to please a more modest lady as well as the saucyer dames out there.

As with the other two, it can be found over here!

And so concludes the first post of our wares,

look forward to many more to come!

And happy shopping! ;)

Introducing Mademoiselle Moira Ziegfeld!

My dear friends, 

on this evening it is with great pleasure and even greater excitement

that I introduce to you

the newest addition to the Ziegfeld Boudoir team.

She is a charming young thing with a wonderful figure,

and she kindly offered us her services in the department of modeling our wares.

She caught us at unawares in our local mall,

perhaps psychically sensing our distress at not having a 

suitable way to display our goods.

So,

without further adieu,

I give you

Mlle. Moira Ziegfeld!

The girl can be something of a nudist...most scandalous!

But she does have a lovely shape, doesn't she? Not to mention the pearls! ;P

Although a proper lady doesn't usually go around flaunting her dimensions,

due to her job, its a wee bit important Moira's are known.

Her measurements are:

Bust - 36
Waist - 28
Hips - 34

A nice solid medium, perfect for displaying

a range of sizes.

There we go, much more classy!

And of course, all of this means that we will finally,

after much delay

be able to open shop and begin offering 

lovely vintage lingerie 

to you, dear ladies and gentlemen!

Keep your eyes peeled for a post this week

about where to find our wares!

Lace in Spring

     So sorry for the lack of life lately, things have been, shall we say, rather hectic indeed here in the Ziegfeld Boudoir. Things ought to return to normal during this week, however. Please, accept these pictures of pretty underthings as our apology! ;] These are all detail shots of things to be appearing in our shop shortly, so do tell if you see something you like!

More after the jump!

Flirt and Tease

 The weather was gorgeous here at the 

Ziegfeld Boudoir, and so I decided to take advantage of the excellent

lighting and photograph some of our wares.

They ought to be up and available for purchase within the month,

but for now, here's a little tease

to fire up your desires! ;]

A selection of tantalizing slips!
