THE SILK LINGERIE JOURNEY FROM CREATION TO SALE

One of the most beautiful and softest materials on the planet has got to be SILK. It has a gorgeous sheen to it and is so comfortable and cool to the skin because it is breathable. Silk was first created thousands of years ago and is still a fabric that is highly sought after and considered to be the crème de la crème in lingerie. But I have a question for you guys how do you think this exquisite material is made?
I will let you into a little secret ........WORMS!! Yes you did read that right ....SILK WORMS!!!

Yes ladies, men and women love SILK! Silk ties, scarves, shirts and even suits for men and for ladies the most gorgeous dresses and number one favorite ... Lingerie! There is no other material more appealing and lavish than silk.
Despite all the different materials available to us today we still crave after the most luxurious material in the world even after thousands of years - SILK.
Legend has it that a Chinese princess was sipping tea in her garden when a cocoon fell into her cup, and the hot tea loosened the long strand of silk and this gave her the idea.
The story of silk begins thousands of years ago on the Silk Road a name that was given to the trail that silk was transported on and became the most important route for international trade. It was used to cross all countries and borders right into Europe and this route is still in use today but now transports many other products.

Let me explain how we come to wear our beautiful pure and sumptuous silk nightgowns etc.
Initially, the Chinese closely guarded their secret of making silk and the powers that be in China agreed that anyone who betrayed the secret of the silk worm and how silk was made would be subjected to torture until death!! But the secret was eventually smuggled out of China and the secret was out!!
Firstly our silk worms a type of caterpillar of the silk moth Bombyx mori are nurtured on farms and fed solely on the leaves of Mulberry trees. The nurturing of silkworms for the purpose of producing silk is called sericulture.

The silk worm then forms a curtain around itself known as a cocoon. This cocoon consists of silk filaments and it is at this stage that the cocoons are delivered to the farms and submerged in boiling water to release the strands so they can be formed into silk thread.
Once a strand has been located the rest of the silk filament comes off quite easily in one continuous thread. There needs to have up to 10 strands reeled together as it is too thin with just the one strand then these are shipped to various silk mills around the world.
When we see them again they have been used to create beautiful and luxury pieces of clothing and lingerie that has been shipped all over the world and that is worth millions of pounds today. With a growing demand for silk items this commodity has become a highly lucrative business and continues to be the most sought after material in the world which becomes more popular every year.

ARE THEY OR AREN’T THEY THAT IS THE QUESTION ON EVERYONES LIPS – BUT NOBODY KNOWS FOR SURE!!

ARE THEY OR AREN’T THEY THAT IS THE QUESTION ON EVERYONES LIPS – BUT NOBODY KNOWS FOR SURE!!

In 2013 history was made in the crazy world of show business 3 brilliant singers reunited for the first time since 2006! Who are they I hear you cry, why,  may be another question, I will tell you all.

For the first time in a long time Beyonce, Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland stood on the same stage and sang at the Destiny’s Child Reunion at the NBA All Star Game in the Super Bowl at Half Time. 

This was classed as the worst kept secret ever as Michelle denied it was ever happening and didn’t think she would be busy on that day, Beyonce refused to deny it but the whispers had already been running riot throughout the show biz world. Also another big giveaway was that the group had released a single and album of old material on the previous Tuesday. So certainly if you looked for the clues they were all there! Even though there were denials from the camp.

When Beyonce was joined by Michelle and Kelly to sing such classics as  Independent Woman, Single Ladies and Bootylicious there were no wide eyed amazement going on, as most people had a hunch that this was going to happen - Despite all the cries of No from the ladies.
Hearing about September 11^th  horrific attacks Destiny’s Child decided to cancel their European tour and performed in a concert benefitting  the survivors of the catastrophe.
The trio had split up in 2005 and each of them worked on their own solo projects with different amounts of success.
At this particular reunion concert Beyonce wore a fabulous basque with a beautiful lace skirt attached whilst on stage with the girls and she looked amazing!

Now you too can own your very own similar styled basque and have your Beyoncesque moment! 

It comes in Black like Beyonce on stage or now in Red to make you feel glamorous and to allow you to have a Beyoncesque moment  of your own!
The Basque is made from beautiful Faux Leather and the lace skirt is absolutely beautiful so choose your preferred colour Black – for mystery  and Red for Passion and a touch of wickedness!!
All you have to do is choose your favourite colour! 

Beyoncé Giselle Knowles and Josephine Baker

Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter was born September 4, 1981and is an American singer, songwriter, and actress. Born and raised in Houston, Texas, she performed in various singing and dancing competitions as a child, and rose to fame in the late 1990s as lead singer of R&B girl-group Destiny's Child.
Beyoncé's name is a tribute to Tina Knowles's maiden name of Beyincé. Through Tina, Beyoncé is of Louisiana Creole descent with African, Native American, French, and Irish ancestry. She is the 21st-century descendant of Joseph Broussard who was a leader of the Acadian people in the mid-1700s and is considered a hero of the British resistance and French and Indian War.
At 7 years old, Beyoncé won her first talent show, beating 15- and 16-year-olds and receiving a standing ovation. She sang John Lennon's "Imagine."
Beyoncé was born on Sept. 4. Her mother, Tina Knowles, was born on Jan. 4, and her husband, Jay Z, was born on Dec. 4. Jay Z and Beyoncé got married on April 4, 2008, and got matching "IV" tattoos on their ring fingers. In 2011, she released her fourth studio album, which was titled 4, and in 2012, she named her daughter Blue Ivy, a play on the Roman numeral four.
She has won 20 Grammys and is the most nominated woman in the award's history. Beyoncé's vocal range spans 3.6 octaves and is classified as mezzo-soprano. Her biggest musical influence is Michael Jackson.
She was nominated for a Golden Globe for her role in 2006's Dreamgirls.
Josephine Baker’s Banana Dance is probably one of the most famous dances during that era.
Originally from Missouri the French called Josephine the ‘Creole Goddess’ and she was first seen on the stage in Paris in 1927. She soon was being celebrated as a movie star and became the highest paid female performer in Europe as well as the most photographed woman in the world much like Beyonce herself.

The original Banana Skirt Girl?

Josephine Baker had a style all of her own.  Her unique beautiful and bold choreography are still studied today as important 20s and 30s jazz movements.  Not only is she an important figure in the singing and dancing world, but also her political significance. She was the first African American female to perform at a racially integrated American Concert Hall. She aided the French resistance in WWII which won her the military award of the Croix de Guerre and she is well noted for her contributions to the American Civil Rights movement in the 1970s.
Josephine Baker danced her way on to the Paris stage during the 1920s with a comic, but sensual appeal that took Europe by storm. Famous for barely there dresses and costumes and sensual dance routines admirers of all races regularly sent her gifts, including diamonds and cars, and she received approximately 1,500 marriage proposals in her life time from avid fans. She maintained her sensual dancing performances and celebrity status for 50 years until her death in 1975.
The cream of Celebrities such as Princess Grace of Monaco and Sophia Loren attended the 68-year-old Josephine’s  performace of her well loved routines from her 50 year career. Her reviews were even better than before however a few days later Josephine sadly slipped into a coma and never recovered. She died at 5.00am on April 12^th.1975.

More than 20,000 people crowded the streets of Paris to watch the funeral procession on its way to the Church of the Madeleine. She was honoured by the French government with a 21-gun salute, making Josephine Baker the first American woman buried in France with military honours. Her gravesite is in the Cimetiére de Monaco in Monaco.
Josephine Baker has continued to intrigue and inspire people throughout the world including Beyonce who actually danced in a replica of the famed Banana skirt.

In her performance on Fashion Rocks Beyoncé delivered a Josephine Baker dance and when the curtain opens a projected drawing of Josephine Baker in the banana skirt is seen as the camera goes over the audience toward the stage. Beyoncé's name can be seen in large gothic script. The stage fills with smoke and Beyoncé comes on thrusting her hips with her arms above her head, wearing a similar version of Josephine Baker's banana skirt and performs her famous banana dance including the comic clicks of her neck from side to side. During Beyonce’s dance a screen comes up and reveals the image of Josephine Baker's face. It is very clear that Beyonce holds Josephine in high esteem as she dedicated her first performance of Fashion Rocks to her hero. I feel Josephine was very brave and a pioneer for Black women fighting for their rights much akin to Martin Luther King who spent his life trying to overcome prejudice. There was much love for her just like the love that Beyonce has got from all over the world.
