Cotton Candy

Undrest Lingerie

Ever since Eve first picked up a pair of fig leaf pasties, lingerie shopping has frequently led to identity crises.

But Maria Paz Navales must have missed the memo, because her new Undrest collection is neither granny nor tramp.

Made from dreamy Supima cotton and cotton cashmere, the undies, camis, bralets, and chemises are sweetly sexy but never overt. Soft shades of white, rose, and menthe keep things subtle, and there’s no skimping on details like real mother of pearl buttons and ribbons made from pure silk.

The Classic Sleep T is as pretty as it is comfy. The Marissa chemise makes judicious use of lace and bows. And the ruffle-lined Brazilian panty is 99 percent Madonna with just the teeniest bit of whore.

Now that’s something you can identify with.
