In my last post, I introduced one of my favorite new plussize lingerie lines called Curvy Couture. Did you check out their gorgeous spring collection? I am thrilled that I got the chance to pick out a bra and panty set to review–and even got a chance to chat with the designer and creator of Curvy Couture, Dora Lau. She’s on a mission to make every full-figured woman proud to be curvy–and she’s an absolute delight to interview!
But before we talk to Dora, let me just tell you a bit about the Cabaret Lace Plunge Bra and matching thong panty from Curvy Couture. HOTNESS. That is all I have to say. If you thought your girls looked full and perky before, you will gasp in disbelief when you put this on.
This gorgeous bra is sexy and supportive…basically the goldmine of plussize lingerie. I love the swiss dot pattern mixed with the lace on the hot pink layer and the black accent details. This is just one of their bra and panty sets from their spring collection, and I’ve already spotted a few others that I want to try!
“I’ve been designing for curvy girls for over 20
years! As a teenager, I was curvy and when I couldn’t find clothes I liked in the stores, I started making my own. The curvy girl is a very underserved market in fashion. We want fashion and sex appeal just like all women, but it is hard to find clothes with the proper fit and construction–especially in lingerie. When I got older, I started designing evening wear and eventually moved to lingerie. For years, I worked with Lane Bryant to design the core and novelty bras. A few years ago, I decided to branch out on my own–and really focus on the undergarments that make curvy women feel pampered and special and sexy.”
“There are so many more materials available now and the technology for construction has advanced so much! Even though these features are mostly unseen, they make a huge difference in the shape and support of the garment. Then we add gorgeous fabrics and flirty details, and that is what Curvy Couture is all about. We have 50 people on staff…together with my technical team, we have over 100 years of experience in the business. It’s a dream come true for me.”
the lingerie and fashion shows in Paris and Shanghai and shop for materials in Barcelona and Finland…we are always looking for techniques to learn and incorporate it into our Curvy Couture designs. Right now, we are selling directly to consumers through our website and sell to specialty boutiques all over the U.S. We are still growing and expanding! You might see us in major department stores soon! And…we are not stopping with just lingerie…at Curvy Couture, we want to create a whole pampering experience for our girls, so you’ll see more beauty products and items on our site. It’s one step at a time, but you can see that I have big dreams for Curvy Couture!
I’ve declared it plussize lingerie week here at Style Plus Curves. This is a sensitive issue for many plussize women, and it is notoriously hard to find beautiful, sexy items that fit you in all the right places…but there are some amazing companies out there who are doing it right! So, for my first plussize lingerie feature, I’m thrilled to introduce you to an amazing line called Curvy Couture.
Every woman should feel beautiful and glamorous–and the gorgeous, well-made lingerie, bras, panties and corsets in sexy prints and fabrics from Curvy Couture can definitely help with that! Take a look at their ADORABLE spring collection–inspired by classic Hollywood haute couture!
How beautiful! Seriously, are you feeling sexy already just looking at these beautiful styles? Right now, bras are available in 36C to 44DD, and will soon be available in DDD, F, G and H! Panties come in sizes 6/8 to 22/24.
If you are a girl who likes to feel sexy and confident all the way down to your skin…definitely put Curvy Couture on your to-buy-now list! In my next post, I’ll share my review of the Cabaret Lace Plunge Bra and matching panty set and introduce you to the designer and creator of Curvy Couture, Dora Lau. Don’t miss it!
I love my high-heels. Like…really really love them. But, unfortunately, they don’t always love me back. I have all sorts of feet issues and a few long-standing injuries that sometimes prevent me from wearing my gorgeous, colorful, happy heels…and put me on the “flatline.” I’m always on the lookout for cute shoes that don’t embarrass my feet and can keep up with my hectic on-the-go schedule. And ladies…I’m happy to introduce you to a young company fresh on the market….with a new crop of foot-friendly, style-conscious styles: Alegria Shoes.
I was thrilled when they contacted me for a review, and spent a lot
of time looking through all of their styles and options…since it is
still freezing here in Chicago and we’re not entirely out of danger of
snow, I opted to try a more classic, year-round style in a not so
classic color: Alegria Paloma Blue Tile Mary Janes!
These shoes were originally made for nurses…so they know a thing or two about being on your feet all day! Each style features hidden benefits, including an anatomically correct
interlocking footbed system, that forms to the natural contours of your
foot for maximum support, improved posture and all-day comfort.
Halfway through the day, my feet are feeling good! No inflammation or pain points.

And after a full work day and a 4 hour shopping trip, I’m waiting for the train in comfort. I could feel that the footbed of the shoe had molded to the shape of my foot, and the pads of my feet were not throbbing as they usually do after a full day.

If you need to take a break from your heels or spend a lot of time on your feet, check out Alegria and walk around in comfort and style! Here’s some adorable styles from their spring collection:
How much do you love the Houndstooth?? And the sandals with the skull and crossbones? Cute!
