Seeing as Valentines Day is coming up and although it's been nearly three years since I did a Lingerie piece it's still one of the top reasons people ever visit PlaidStallions ( Sex sells, I must remember to write that down) I thought it was high time to take another look at what I call "Eww-la-la" with another look at a crusty old lingerie catalog.
It's the usual mix of timeless sexy...
aaaaand stuff like this plus the sleaziest catalog drawings this side of Ikea. It's all in Vintage Lingere Volume 3.
Happy Valentines Day and don't forget the original trips to Lingerie land. bring your purel:

That first shot has a real Mary Ann from Gilligan's Island vibe going on (minus the gold chain).
Do you remember the good 'ole days on TV when electricity was produced by a cute girl riding a bamboo bicycle - after baking a homemade coconut cream pie no less? Sigh...
MOM NO!
Why is the Bikini at top labelled E, F? Does each breast warrant a capital letter?
