Review from Lizochka A.

Finally, a place with high quality lingerie and good service.
There is an amazing selection of lingerie sets, swim suits, some clothing, and even hosiery. I also spotted a few masquarade masks around the store.
Friendly atmosphere, I recommend it! -

This store is one of my all-time favorite places to shop for lingerie, bras and underwear in Vancouver. I am one of those who really love beautiful bras, lace and prints (both floral and animal!) Why spend a lot on clothing and not spoil yourself with a beautiful bra set!
This place carries a lot of high end lingerie brands from Australia, Europe and North America. They carry a lot of bra sets by Pleasure State, Elle Macpherson, and Mimi Holliday. Their bra selection is gorgeous. They have variety of sizes and styles. Unlike other lingerie store in downtown, this store targets young women and they have youthful styles. I do not recall seeing couple games or toys at the store. The owner offers bra fitting. Also, the store carries a lot of swimsuits in the summer. The only downside is the store layout. The store is tiny, but the selection is large.
They usually have a sale rack that has amazing finds (bra set and garter for $35! Cannot beat that!). The owner is really nice and for regular customers, she would offer a discount even on new arrivals. They have great Boxing week sales which ends usually by the second week of January (20% off all items in the store including the sale items!).
If you love lingerie, you should check out this store. It might be a bit on the pricey side, but the prices are very reasonable even if you compare it to the prices online. Despite being in Yaletown, the store does not have huge markups. If you are one of those who throw their lingerie in the washing machine without care, you might want to refrain from spending in this store since most of their stuff are very delicate.
The store hours are usually between 2-6:30. Since I live very close to it, I call before I go just to check if they are open.
