WOOHOO... Review & Win Winner Announced!

I am SO proud to announce the winner of our Spring 2009 "Review & Win" Sweepstakes, Amanda Felix of Columbus, OH. Amanda wrote a couple reviews on some of our Vedette products. She is also the proud owner of quite a few items from OrchardCorset.com.

Amanda, I hope you find some absolutely fabulous duds to spend your $100 gift card on. Splurge! Buy something you wouldn't normally buy, try something you wouldn't normally try, or order that piece you've been secretly coveting! And while you're at it, sit back, relax and turn winning this sweepstakes into a whole "You" day. You can even wear a tiara and eat a cupcake, buy yourself flowers or just smile a lot. Do whatever it is you do to make yourself feel splendid.

Details on the next sweepstakes to come soon... stay tuned!

Congratulations again, Amanda!

(Phew, "Review & Win" is finally complete... )

...And the winner is...

We've just finished our Spring '09 "Review & Win" Sweepstakes and we have a $100 shopping spree winner... well, so far we've had two. The first winner, chosen at random, was Rachel from NY. Unfortunately, the email address she provided wasn't working, so we had to choose another winner. This time it is Mary Ellen from Wilmington, DE. We're waiting on a response from her so that we can officially publish the winner. She has until 6/15/09 to respond and still claim her prize. Keep your fingers crossed that she responds in time! If not, we will draw yet another winner... We promised that we would announce the winner yesterday. I guess I should have planned on waiting for the winner's approval. Next time, we'll give ourselves some time.

We collected quite a few reviews over the course of this sweepstakes and the next one is in the works right now. The details will soon follow. We're thinking about splitting up the prize to allow for more than one winner. I want to thank each of you that wrote a review, good or bad. We appreciate the feedback and I know that its easier as a customer to make a smart purchase when you have the opinions of people who have already had experiences with a particular item.

Keep writing those reviews, folks. I'll be featuring some of my favorites on this blog - some that are a bit too long for the format on product pages, and some that made me smile. And our next sweepstakes is coming soon! If you want to be kept in the loop about our current sales and sweepstakes, sign up for our newsletter. We'll send out the details of new promotions as they are made clear.

Congratulations again to Mary Ellen! Your $100 shopping spree is waiting for you!

New Spring Vedette Collection '09

The Vedette brand is quickly becoming our best selling line of products, and so to celebrate its success, we have included over 15 new Vedette brand compression products with new styles, new fabrics, and the same fantastically supportive and comfortable designs we've come to love.

Here are a few of our new offerings for Vedette Spring Collection '09...

The Vedette 303 Braless Double Compression Body Shaper


This body slimming braless compression suit is designed to reduce your measurements in your waistline, abdomen and reduce the accumulated fat along your back.


It features adjustable straps, hook and eye front closure, a convenient hook and eye crotch closure, boyshort style bottoms with adorable lace trim, light mesh paneling in the butt for natural projection and comes in black or taupe.


May be worn with or without your favorite bra (bra does not come included).





Next, we have something a little bit different...

The Vedette 307 Slimming Latex Spanish Lace Body Reducing Shaper Thong

The Vedette 307 Reducing Shaper Thong sculpts and enhances the feminine form with Spanish lace and latex that band to shape the waist, control excess fat in your abdomen, and smooth your body.


The bodysuit shaper offers strong compression and control. The inner cotton layer is for comfort. The mid hevea latex layer covers all around the abdominal, hips and waist area. This layer has an amazing shape-memory and elongation capacity and when combined with the outer lycra layer, gives the garment an extremely strong compression rating.

Straps are removable and adjustable. Thong back for natural bum shape. Designed to be seamless when worn underneath skirts, dresses and suits, with or without a bra.

This particular body suit is called a reducer as well because the latex works while you wear it to make you sweat and reduce your measurements gradually while at the same time, instantly slimming and shaping your body.


And our two most popular compression garments from the new collection...



The Vedette 308 Slimming Latex Bust Lifting Body Shaper with a bust enhancing panel for lift and support.

This body shaper is designed with a strong compression waist cincher and a panty bottom. It has fixed adjustable straps and a scoop back. Seamless design that won't show up under your clothing.

It provides full compression support, instant shaping, slimming and flattening of the body, including the stomach, waist, hips and back. Especially helpful for maintenance and support after a cosmetic procedure/plastic surgery or body enhancement surgery.




and The Vedette 304 Strapless Double Compression Body Shaper


This double compression shaper is designed to reduce measurements along the waistline, abdomen and remove accumulated fat from the back. Two adjustable and removable straps, hook and eye front closure with convenince hook and eye crotch closure with boyshort style bottoms and lace trim.
