SHAN Summer 2007
Written by Yvette N. Coleman
SHAN was founded in 1985 by Chantal Levesque
who established her name as a designer of couture
swimwear. The collection is full of accents
rich with history, elegant fabric, and vibrant
colors and prints.
“I’ve always admired the
workmanship that went into the old tapestries.
They’re so intricate and delicate, yet bold
in size and scale,” says Chantal.
Her style is soft and exudes a subtle sexiness
that manages a modern feminine flair.
Nestled in high end design and strong added-value
market niche, the SHAN collections are recognized
for their superior quality, fashion forward designs,
high technology and irreproachable manufacturing
worldwide. Shortly after SHAN was created, the
company quickly and successfully expanded to offer
complete bathing wardrobes, lingerie, and accessories
for both men and women.
In 2005 SHAN launched its women’s and men's
collections of underwear. SHAN has garnered
praise for its sophisticated lingerie that exudes
sensuality, softness and quality.
This season SHAN has four luxurious collections
that will fit all the elements in your life:
Boudoir has sexy hardware mixed with the softness of intricately detailed mesh and bows.
Cocktail, with strong lines in the structured separates folded frills for sexy pin up styles; with the prints that evoke old Milanese wall hangings.
After Hours, with modern metallic tattoos on monochromes; geometric shapes, shimmer of the subtle iridescent silver print gives the wearer an irresistible sexiness.
Garden Party, featuring a fresh new print with exotic plants, insects, flowers, and fruit. It has a whimsy and coy exoticism feeling.
SHAN is available in exclusively SHAN only boutiques
located in Montreal, Laval, and Toronto - - the
collections are carried in over 360 retail locations,
including Harrods, Les Galeries
Lafayette, Le Printemps, Rigby
& Peller, Saks Fifth Avenue,
Holt Renfrew and Wynn Las Vegas.
Additionally, the line is carried in boutiques
worldwide that range from France, Italy, Russia,
Japan and even Australia.
