Vintage Lace Slip Dress Y2K Fairycore Romantic Angelcore Sexy, dual-purpose boudoir fare constructed of silk and European laces and can be versatile as ready-to-wear and/or simply in the bedroom From an excerpt about the designer in WWD: After graduating from Parson’s School of Design in 1994 with a degree in marketing and a stint as a fashion assistant for WWD, her “passion” for lingerie and an ambition to start her own brand and company propelled her to create Leigh Bantivoglio Inc. in February 1997. Bantivoglio, whose bra and daywear company generated wholesale annual revenues of over $2 million in 2006, specializes in sexy, dual-purpose boudoir fare of silk and European laces like camis, teddys and slips that can be worn easily with jeans and ready-to-wear or simply in the bedroom. Leigh is quoted in the article: “The first year I had better stores like Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman buying from me. But I never thought of quantities and everything was priced $400 and $500.” She ended up having success and the brand was sold in Dubai, Japan and Israel internationally, in addition to all of the upscale high-end US retailers and intimate apparel boutiques that sold her line.
