Who is Lucy B?
Written by Yvette N. Coleman
Everyone needs a drawer full of fabulousness! Vintage
undies have never looked so sexy. Drawing from
the 1940’s pin up girl for inspiration,
owner and designer Michelle Landry brings a refreshing
combination of modern and classic into a palatable
fusion. The company was started in 1999 as a hobby
and has grown into a full-time business located
in downtown Los Angeles.
Why vintage-inspired lingerie? "Every
woman needs a drawer full of fabulous, foxy
under things. This started out on a personal
level I've always had a love for vintage clothing
and have been an avid swing dancer for years.
With all the swivels and flips, people are bound
to catch a sneak-peek at your undies. If you're
wearing something fabulous on the outside, what's
underneath better be just as cute,"
says Michelle.
Lucy B keeps the vintage look current with
an improved fit and this season designer Michelle
Landry teams up with pin-up model, Bernie Dexter.
The two have recreated their favorite vintage
pieces from the 1940’s and 50’s.
Customers will find fabulous vintage styles
that have been re-created and are now available,
brand new, in sizes small through x-large. The
collection offers focused design detail and
high quality fabrics at an affordable price.
Find your favorite in the collection whether
it’s the 6-strap garter belt, bullet bra
or the high waist panty with a double nylon
gusset. Landry calls her vintage stuff "hardware"
as "it really keeps things where
they are supposed to be - - I miss that in modern
lingerie," she says.
