I've been given the task to sketch a collection of 5 matching sets of lingerie
modern, classy and sexy,
and be inspired by a Marilin Monroe style..
Hmm.. For today, I'm happy with the result .
I might continue .
It's rather simple to think of lingerie as undergarments.But truth is, we live in such times that underwear has gone beyond the boundries of clothing for intimate wear .
The contemporary lifestyle requires attention to esthetics.
A social consciousness to the depths of what is meant to be intimate and private being a matter as important as the comfort of a pair of shoes.

Esthetics goes beyond the technicality of a texture or the mix-and-match of colors. It goes as deep as conceptualization , ideas, synergy of senses blended together to reach the social psychology of the individual.
An esthetician blends the color with the shape and texture to get a specific effect , appealing to the it's targeted customer .
Lingerie serves visual purposes ,and it is often a piece of clothing used as an accessory to the entire outfit .Such it becomes that tops may be worn unde a tuxedo jacket or in a simple mix and match to a pair or palazzos, It can accompany an entire wordrobe as accessories, when worn with the right items.
The core value of luxury lingerie stands in the right mix of shape and texture.
The Merilin Monroe collection consists of pieces inspired by the iconic muse of the 50's , relating to voluptuous feminity and luxurious pin-ups.It evoques the glamourous frills through it's abundance of satin silk, velvet and translucent tulle.
The graphic infusion of polka dots and french lace, combined with the structured precision of the contrasting textures such as velvet/satin, tafetta/tulle, satin/lace and even metallic colors , makes each and every individual piece an unique experience in itself .
The cut of each item is designed to flatter specific body shapes and bring out the unique beauty of each woman.
Each costume has a clear personality to match and enhance specific styles.The Merilin collection is conceptualized to bring out the beauty of the woman wearing it. It's conception encapsulates a mood, a feeling, an emotion and above all, a state of mind.
It is much more than a piece of clothing.
Each item is a recipe , well mastered to its finest details of esthetics and technical precision.
