Bonbons

Help yourself to sweets from Jane’s Vanity. The latest arrivals are delightful confections that keep you wishing for just one more. So easy to slip a few JV treats under your woolies. Try an assortment:

Studio Pia offers the intriguing Zaida Longline Lingerie Set, an embroidered homage to the hidden (and decorative) world of microbiomes. Black silk is the superstructure for Art Deco-like images that swirl on black tulle and velvet. The embroidered designs, in shades of green, gold, and blue, were inspired by the work of artist Kathleen Ryan. The matching Skirted Garter Belt can be worn without the straps as a flounced belt over apparel. Build a party wardrobe around this spectacular collection.

Add a lick of frosting to your winter wardrobe with deeply delicious burgundy red velvet from Gilda & Pearl. Choose the sultry Sultan Garland Short Robe for stepping out, or the Sultan Garland Long Robe, with its circle skirt, for twirling at home.

Or decorate with exquisite black lace from Dana Pisarra. The cocktail skirt or a slinky slip dress are wool and silk knit tubes that highlight your bonbons with sheer lace appliqué. These garments are extremely cheery and practical all through the winter. Try wearing with flannel pajamas. Really. You’ll see.

And while we’re on the subject of confectionary artistry, let’s celebrate A Yen for Chocolate, the Portland-based chocolaterie of owner Cristina Yen. She creates what one might call the lingerie of chocolates (while wearing JV, of course). 

Meanwhile, Jane’s Vanity wishes you a season of sacchariferous sophistication. With a dusting of autumnal cheer.
