En toute intimité

There will be women in négligés, yes, in the state of what the dictionary tells me in a poor translation is a person dressed without research. There will be birds with silk culottes in their beak (have they stolen them, little fetish thieves?). The material is charmeuse, a light fabric with a satin weave, the face lustrous and reflective while the back has a dull finish. A charmeuse is also a person (a woman) who knows how to please. There will be all the latest news of the material of lingerie, a feminine domain par excellence. There will be the rustling of intimate clothing, the frou frou and the cri cri of silk, an ecstatic abandon to the refinement and finesse of fabrication, the richness of material, un nervosisme délicat. An event is hosted by Writer-in-Residence, Alice Butler, who is researching and writing feminist approaches to kleptomania in collaboration with the Freud Museum.
