Interested and Interesting

Jacqueline de Ribes, the ideal of Parisian sophistication, died this winter, after a long and stylish life. She was not only gorgeous, but also an oracle. She said, in effect, that to be elegant, you must be both interesting and interested. As you must be to wear JV lingerie. It’s an attitude.

That is, you wear the clothing, it doesn’t wear you. Your creativity finds expression in a JV piece. Your poise and assurance carry it off. 

Designs by FrancesKa are meant for you. Nice to have a full length Sussy ball skirt in your closet, just for fun. Immaculately styled and tailored, it would suit any occasion, choice of black or red. Slit up one side, fully lined, it lets you tell your story. You might wear it with a simple white tee or one of FrancesKa’s Lavalliè blouses, choice of black, white, or red silk chiffon.

Be interesting in Aromatique’s Wool Long Sleeved Body Suit with its bold round cut-out in back. You can wear it so casually, knowing it is an object of perfection. Nice with jeans, or, whatever.

You might let a beautiful bra show. No big deal. Karolina Laskkowska knows about flaunting what you love. Today it might be her Cassiopeaia Emerald long-line in hand-dyed lace. In it, you can concentrate: on your dissertation as well as your lunch date.

De Ribes would have approved of your exquisite leather gloves from Hungarian brand Karma. At your fingertips: the Lacy Vino in burgundy red, the opera length Eloise Tulle in sheer black pont d’esprit, or the Corina with fur cuffs in chocolate or ivory. They are the final detail that shows you are paying attention. Another little detail: Pierre Mantoux socks.

Grace and thoughtfulness are elegant. Gifts from Jane’s Vanity are easy to order and beautiful to receive. We recommend the bright silk print pillowcases from Karma on the Rocks. And their red velvet Jewelry Roll. 

JV creates a collection that, like de Ribes herself, goes its own way. The pieces are exquisite, but easy. They are subtle yet flirty. They show that you can have a sense of humor while you sizzle. Keeping everyone…interested.
