I know, I know we just featured a dressing gown last week, but bear with me while I explain… One of the things I’ve realized lately is that TLA’s archives aren’t just my blog archives, they’re also a sort of archive of the lingerie world. While everything is, obviously, heavily slanted towards what I like, there are still years of industry records here — brands that have come and gone; […]
