Another 6 months have passed and the famous Lingerie Show at the Rio Hotel in Las Vegas took place. As usual there was all kinds of amazing Lingerie, Body Jewelry, Wigs, Swimwear and High Heels. Whether in small or bigger booths, the exhibitors displayed their newest collection. It's always a joy walking through the show looking at the items and visiting the suppliers.

Shirley of Hollywood's lingerie booth was really busy with clients. So we went back to see all of their exciting new products and to talk to Spencer a sales rep from Shirley. The new lingerie from Risque and Hot catalog are sure to please and we recognized a lot of hot sellers that are still available in their new catalogs. We felt like kids in a candy store with so many things to choose. So off we went to see other lingerie suppliers.

Then we stopped at the Hustler Lingerie booth where a young crew welcomed us warmly. We thought that the newest Hustler catalog was a replacement of the former one, which contains a complete different assortment. We were kind of wondering why they changed their collection that much. Thanks to the visit at their booth we were informed that this is an additional catalog and does not replace the former one at all. 98 percent of the items are in stock and ready to ship out after ordering. We also got some smaller brochures with Hustler Clothing, such as Tank Tops, Skirts, Shorts, Hats, Sleepwear and so forth. Even Men's Underwear caught our eye. Hustler Lingerie was able to give us CDs with the newest pictures. The Hustler collection is absolutely special and known for exquisite quality.

Our next visit was at the Leg Avenue booth. The staff was very busy but we were in good hands with Michael. We got to have a look at the new catalog and saw many new and great items. We learned that Leg Avenue will not carry Corsets anymore. They want to focus on all other Lingerie in order to keep up the reasonable price range for everyone. It's tough to keep up a good quality for Corsets and Bustiers and still offering inexpensive merchandise. They handed out a closeout lingerie catalog that makes it easier for us to see which items are discontinued.

We said hi at the Allure Leahter booth where we talked to George for a couple of minutes. Allure provides a great service and quality leather lingerie. They have a manicure set that will be included in every order we place, as soon as we show the set on our website. Allure's newest catalog has been out for months and we already know the 2008 collection. It was still great to stop by, say hello and have a look at their Vinyl and Leather lingerie and clothing.

The visit at the AT Design booth took the longest. We said hello to Tina and her husband who are the owners. Vanessa who always provides a great service took good care of us. She introduced us to the new catalog which will come out in about a month. AT Design Lingerie changed some of their assortment and goes in a sexier direction now. Beautiful designs, more revealing than before, and of course their best sellers are still available in the new lingerie catalog. AT also found a new Silk supplier who provides the quality one should expect. Look for more exciting Silk lingerie on our website soon. Due to a great Show Special deal, we placed an order with Vanessa. I guess in every one of us is hiding a bargain hunter....

One of our newest suppliers is Forplay Lingerie where we were heading next. Angelica whom we are working together through the year was at the booth and made us feel comfortable and welcome. This year we fell in love with their Dresses. Forplay provides a huge variety of Short Dresses for the Club, Party or a stroll through the city. Their Short Dresses are made of breathable and very light fabric. Awesome for hot regions like Las Vegas for instance. They are great in any part of the world of course but it really made us think of the summers we have here in the desert. Touching and looking at the items gave us a much better idea about the products. Although these Dresses look great on the pictures, they look even better up-close. A picture sometimes cannot show the details clearly. Angelica told us that they are very trendy, fashionable and also try to be very innovative. Forplay also has a good selection of Lingerie, from cute to sexy and their quality is very, very good. Their newest line is the Legwear that goes well with all their products. We made very good experience working with Forplay and the products are a big hit!

We also had a quick stop at Bodyzone where we talked to David and Maria, his wife. Bodyzone narrowed their assortment and are having a new strategy. Due to the fact that Bodyzone's Convertible Line comes in 14 different colors and bottom as well as top can be mixed and matched, they rather have less items to offer but have them in stock. That way they can serve their customers even better.

Some booths like Dreamgirl Lingerie, Coquette, Elegant Moments, Magic Silk/Male Power we just stopped by quickly, said hi or just waived when they were too busy. We also took advantage of the presents of Pleaser and ordered some thigh high boots that are liked a lot by our clientele.

All in all we had very good impressions, collected many catalogs and took some new thoughts to work with. Going to the Lingerie Show is still work for us but makes a different and awesome work day of a different kind. To top it off at the end we treated ourselves to a glass of wine at the bar while chatting about the last hours.
