I’ve just discovered an off-the-beaten track shop for frilly bras and panties at prices that had me squealing. The interior of Destockage Lingerie is as unadorned as its name, but the place carries great brands such as Huit, Chantelle, and Dim. This blue Huit swimsuit costs a mere 14 euros; bras go from 10-25 euros, and thongs start at 3,50. The place also carries girdles, tights and hose, even silicone “bras” that tape to the bust. The gracious shop clerk told me new arrivals appear every two weeks. There’s a changing room, and for those of us who don’t know our sizes in centimeters, a tape measure is kept on hand. If you love to feel sexy underneath, hurry over before I buy the whole damn store out.
