Founded in the 1950s in Lyon, France, Lise Charmel is the very essence of French lingerie. Their luxurious laces and exquisite construction techniques are second to none, and this is a label that really shows how theatrical, opulent, and extravagant high-end lingerie can be. I've had the pleasure of seeing several Lise Charmel sets in person lately (and trying quite a few on), and they quite literally take my breath away. It's hard to convey how luscious a brand like is in person. To be perfectly honest, this kind of laciness really isn't my day-to-day style, but I doubt I'd turn down a set if someone gave it to me.
However, with bras starting at nearly $200, I may never get the chance to own a set from Lise Charmel. But I can still dabble in the brand a little bit with their trademark embroidered stockings. These stockings made an indelible impression on me back when I was still a stockings blogger. The welt treatment is unique to Lise Charmel, and ever since I first laid eyes on them, I've wanted a pair. And though $61 for a pair of thighs highs certainly isn't cheap, I have a feeling I'd get my money's worth out of these.
