Liz Mitchell's second collection of pretty lingerie, called Tailored, is in store exclusively at Farmers. This season Mitchell was inspired by 1960s La Dolce Vita glamour, with two collections that combine fashion with function. The Vintage Rose collection combines rose embroidered tulle with tricot knit fabric, camisoles, petticoats and French
knickers in soft subtle shades. Versatile camisoles, chemises and matching briefs made from fine cotton knit jersey feature in the Rose Botanical collection, with script and botanical drawing prints. Prices start from $19.99 for knickers through to $59.99 for camis and slips.
A night of fantasy
