Perhaps we will never meet the international designers whose garments grace the Jane’s Vanity website. And yet, when we purchase one of their garments, we become connected with them. We wear their dreams, their life’s work. Let’s write them a letter.

Dear Emma Harris, UK

Since I purchased your Celeste Raspberry Silk Camisole Set, I have been wearing it constantly. For sleep, my morning routine, and for a little boost under my clothing. I should have bought the Celeste Champagne Set too, but someone else plucked my size. What’s the attraction? It is not just the juicy pink color that lights up my face and makes me happy. It is also the careful tucks at the bust and the nipped in waist that keeps the camisole so nicely in place. It is the tiny machine stitching (just visible on the inside of the garments) that anchors the gilded floral lace appliqués. Also the lovely silk that washes so beautifully, and dries with barely a wrinkle. This romantic duo has become my daily necessity. Thank you and XXX…

Dear Falke, Germany

I apologize for not writing sooner. Perhaps I’ve just taken you for granted, because your stockings last so long. They are steadfast, when others might let me down. However, the quality and longevity of Falke hosiery has not kept me from acquiring more of it from Jane’s Vanity. Latest purchases include the excellent Cream Cable Tights that make winter fun, and the Magic Evening Tights to add sparkle to my holidays. Thank you, at long last. Best wishes…

Dear Gilda & Pearl, UK

Although your atelier may be far from LA, you have totally captured “Old Hollywood” in your slinky designs. I am thrilled to be able to channel Carole Lombard in my new Golden Hollywood Silk Pajamas. And to bask in the glow of their beautiful leopard silk print. The long wrap jacket and classic trousers will be fun to accesorize with lingerie sets, heels, and, of course, big sunglasses. Wishing you sunshine, palm trees, and Clark Gable… 

Dear Karolina Laskowska, Norway

Just to say, your latest work of art, the Cassiopeia Lingerie Set, is safe with me! I’ll take good care of it and love it. And every day, its sexy longline shape, carefully-placed scallops of burgundy and gold lace, and clever details will bring me joy. Your friend…

And to Jane and Emily, PDX

Thank you for supporting these amazing artisans and for putting us in “touch.” Lots of love…
