Language of Love

French Dressing

You know you’re sexy.

But that doesn’t mean you want to be all obvious about it.

You prefer form-fitting cashmere to cleavage. A glimpse of lacy under-thing to a clingy halter top. Whispered seduction to drunken pick-up lines.

Which is why you need to get yourself to French Dressing, the tiny new lingerie boutique tucked away in the Flat of Beacon Hill. It’s sexy, all right — filled with bras and undies from Cosabella, Eberjey, Le Mystère, and Hanky Panky, plus sleepwear from Underglam and cashmere robes. But it’s also subtle — off the main drag, pretty, and discreet.

Meaning you can duck in and pick up something sexy anytime.

And no one but you — and the one you choose to seduce with a whisper — has to know about it.

French Dressing, 49 River Street, between Chestnut and Lime Streets (617-723-4968).
