Subtle Seduction

It’s just an ordinary morning, until your babydoll at breakfast suggests something more enticing. JV helps you send a subtle message of seduction, in the morning, and all day long.

Is seduction a matter of theater? Control? Why even bother with what to wear? Because beautiful lingerie makes you feel fabulous. And, as Italian wardrobe consultant Chiara Giuliani notes: “Always keep in mind that your partner won’t care how skinny you are but rather how sexy you are.” Men are simple creatures, she confides, who only perceive the overall impression. So use that to your advantage.

Be a little old school and communicate with your clothing. A babydoll from Layalina, in Cherry Red (so breakfasty) or Aubergine (so purpley), is a happy way to romance. We love the sheer peek-a-boo lace panels, the flirty length, the luxurious bagged-out bust. Showcase it alone at home, or layer it for a boost about town. What a great way to dress.

For a special evening, say hello in another of Layalina’s spectacular confections: the Assiyah Red Silk Mousseline Gown. The magical fabric was picked up as dead stock from a larger order for LMHV. It smolders with the addition of fine red Chantilly lace with fuchsia detailing. 

Or, put some English on a single spaghetti strap. Allow it to fall, mid-conversation, while chatting over a glass of wine. Or while standing alone across the room at a party. The ideal choice would be Emma Harris’s communicative Clara Moss Silk Pajama in dark green with shimmering black floral lace appliqué at bust, hem, and climbing up the outer leg of its trousers. 

You might also experiment with one of Zambak’s see-through black net and leather tops. Dare to wear the Rosalinda with leather rosette appliqués, the Flat Leaf, or the Daisy Leather Shrug. A special sort of instant messaging.
