Victoria's Secret: The Designer's Collection

I have strong associations from my storied Victoria's Secret history, like.....first bra shopping, pink, frills, my flat, tom-boy physique, Judy Blume (a teen girl from my era could not shop for bras without thinking of Judy Blume books), fear of cup sizes & looming clerks with measuring tape, joy of padded push-up bras, high-waisted thongs ....and now, thanks to the Designer Collection available at the Herald Square Victoria's Secret, I've got some lovely new memories to add to my VS memory bank:

Ivory Flora Nikrooz, $160, beautiful neckline and pleats.













Elegant beige silk Kumi Kookoon, $258. This one needs to be tried in person. Click on the bodice for detail.














Pleated, ruffled, Flora Nikrooz, $168. Adorable.













This silk Kumi Kookoon is more grey ($298). Click for gorgeous gathering and beading at the bodice.













The most fun and sexy of them all, I want to wear this tiered fringe with jeans. Flora Nikrooz, $158.













Sweet, romantic, and still somehow sexy, don't you think? These have the look of treasures from a grandmother's hope chest.
