Best Gifts Ever

Beauty of a woman is a matchless attribute; with nothing to surpass it. So long a time there have been the existence of women in this world, there have been lingerie’s as well. This fashion serving luxury undergarment expresses her beauty loving feminine personality, apart from the basic need of supporting her physique. Though the word ‘lingerie’ normally describes both male and female undergarments, the term is commonly used to refer woman’s intimate wear. Lingerie is a broad term and includes garments like bras, panties, stockings, thongs, garters, peignoirs, sheer night gowns, and exotic night wears

Evolution of Lingerie:

Concept of the lingerie’s dates back to the period when people lived in forests whose beginnings are lost in far antiquity. Women in those days bound their body with long scarves folded, looped, and cross folded so as to mould their figures and enhance their beauty. Sculptures of the classical age depict women wearing pieces of fabric to support their bust and waist. The applications of these fabrics were simple and functional, focusing more on support over appearance. Lingerie’s evolved into a fashion icon during the 19th century. When men were involved in the First World War, women became the breadwinners of their family. This new identity beckoned them about the need for more practical undergarments that are lighter and breathable, and can be worn during industrial works.

Later during the 21st century manufacturers and fashion houses started expanding their manufacturing and marketing with sexy and fashionable designs and colors. There was a renaissance in the lingerie world seen with more focus on female curves, as women went to unforeseeable extremes to obtain the perfect ‘hour glass’ figure. Lingerie’s were designed with lavish laces, embroidery and ribbons. Today, the intimate wears available in the market have more sex appeal as compared with the ones used in olden days. Exclusive boutiques are also becoming inherently popular in cities.

Designer and Branded Lingerie’s:

Designer lingerie brands have an ever increasing demand in many countries as they are very fashionable and sensuous. They are considered the best due to their cutting edge designs, and the high quality materials used; subject to strict quality control standards. Thus the consumer can be assured that they are not only buying under garments of latest designs and trendiest fashion, but also a superior product out of their money. Manufacturers concentrated on the ‘Artisan Matrix’, the designing phase, knowledge of body shape, quality, appearance, tradition, and fusion for innovation. Retailers agree that lingerie market have a higher profit margin as compared with other apparels. From dazzling, bold colors, to the soft hues of the color palette, a wide range of collections are available to cater to the tastes of every fashion savvy woman. The most attractive feature of designer lingerie is its soft and delicate embroidery designs. Most popular color choices of women are pink, red, aqua, and pastel.

World’s largest lingerie manufacturer ‘Victoria’s Secret’ operates exclusively in North America. European market is dominated by brands like DB Apparel, and Triumph International. Top brands like Virgina Poppe, Groversons Apparel, Lotus Creations, TNT Fashion limited, sell a wide range of lingerie’s in various colors, and designs to fit every customer’s taste. Other brands like Cosabella, Felina, Fashion Forms, Chantelle, On Gossamer, Jezebel, Spans, Fleurt, and Mary Green also have their share in the global market. Brands like Calvin Klein, Vanity Fair, Jockey, Maidenform etc are renowned for their quality. Some special brands are available which can be worn for certain specific occasions like wedding lingerie etc.

Global intimate wear market is estimated to be around $29.15 billion USD in 2004, $30 billion USD in 2007, and is further projected to increase at the rate of 9% to become $31.6 billion USD by 2012. Organized players constitute over 40% of the lingerie market currently. Branded lingerie market is further expected by industry experts to see a rise of 25% by 2010. Of the total global lingerie sales, bras account for 56%, briefs at 32%, and day wears make the remaining 12%. Retail lingerie market has grown by $770 million USD.

Followed by this are other companies like La Perla, Truimph, Maidenform, VF, and Warnaco. In chain stores, Victoria’s Secret of US, Knickerbox of UK, and Hunkemoller of Europe have a whiz market.

Victoria Beckham has just launched her second collection of designer clothes in New York and it would seem that this collection has been received well by the fashion critics. I have to say that apart from the price tag (ranging from £900 to £4000) these clothes look wearable, even for the average woman, not just film stars, pop singers and socialites. The dresses are chic and cut simply with a great deal of attention to detail. Unlike some designers whose cat walk collections are prototype exaggerations of clothes women might wear, Victoria’s range is definitely ready to wear.

I can’t help thinking that Victoria has designed clothes with her own body shape in mind, but who can blame her! What woman wouldn’t like the opportunity to have clothes made to exactly to her taste and body shape? Often, when I am looking for clothes, I have a very definite idea in my mind of what I am looking for, and often I have to compromise on colour or cut. Imagine being able to pick something up and have it made in a different colour!

Victoria Beckham is tiny and has a perfect hourglass figure. The clothes in her collection are cut for curves and narrow shoulders. An “inverted triangle” might struggle with the boat neck lines which would accentuate the breadth of the shoulder and the draping fabrics and fitted waist lines would be challenging for “rectangles”. Most of the dresses are in basic neutral colours that will withstand the years and the designs are classic enough to last more than one season.

I am somewhat sceptical about how much “designing” Victoria has done. Designers train for years at art school and still don’t make it. I wonder if she actually draws the pictures herself or whether she has a “sketcher” who puts her ideas into drawings. I have no doubt that she has put a great deal of thought into what she wanted to achieve and made all the decisions about the final cut. Her detailed knowledge of every dress is very evident.

While I cannot justify the price tag, I am glad to see a collection of attractive and interesting yet wearable clothes and I wish Victoria Beckham well with this venture.

High energy visible light is blocked when either brown or gray polarized sunglasses lenses are worn. The importance to most wearers of this type of lens is reducing glare which can cause not only eyestrain but can obscure vision. Polarized sunglasses for fishing for instance will actually allow the wearer to see fish in the water which may be hidden to the naked eye.

Introduced several decades ago the use of polarization was once limited to a few brands of eyewear. Fortunately today many consumers can enjoy the benefits of this eye protection without sacrificing the style that they prefer. Most people today take for granted the availability of this excellent form of lens coating . Available in differing levels of glare reduction in prescription eyewear the amount of polarization may also differ in over-the-counter sunglasses as well.

Driving sunglasses will always be safer when the addition of polarized lens coatings are added. The areas of the country which experience several hours of bright sunlight will be obvious locations which need this lens coating. But even very cold places with lots of snow will be safer when drivers wear this anti-glare coating. Make absolutely certain to consider polarized coatings for sunglasses and goggles when engaging in outdoor sports. Those who work on construction or in road improvement sites will experience long hours of misery when glare is not combated.

Even some office workers these days work in modern office towers that allow tons of light. Even when smoke glass is used the light can require shielding and blinds are not available. Sore eyes can be avoided when even a very low percentage of polarized lens coating is applied to prescription lenses. Style isn’t sacrificed at all and there is no dark sunglasses appearance. Just a very light gray color is noticeable but work flow is greatly improved by this tiny adjustment.

After work and the drive home in traffic the consumer who has invested in dark polarized sunglasses can still enjoy watching the sunset. Bright light reflected from automotive chrome during traffic jams would other wise create painful eye strain. A work day spent squinting at the glare reflected on reflective glossy surfaces would surely create a certain amount of pain. But when appropriate levels of glare control are added to sunglasses throughout the day the evening can still be spent enjoying all the many uses of vision.

Polarized sunglasses extend our enjoyment of the day for hours. A bright summer day that starts with a glare filled sunrise commute can still leave pleasant evening hours of sports. Without polarized sunglasses bright days are a misery that requires rest in a dark room at the end of the commute home. Summer is too short to spend any part of it hiding from the sun. Take action to protect vision from all of the many dangers that threaten to take it away. The application of polarized sunglasses coatings are an important step in eye care.
