"A sliver of silk or a frill of lace peeking out from under a skirt, a satin strap slipping off the shoulder, it all suggests the possibility of being undressed, of another layer, and of intimacy.
"Whether it be emotions, secrets, skin,
fears, or a garter, the act of displaying what is meant to be intimate
is seductive and decidedly feminine. It’s powerful, inviting,
flirtatious, and delicate. In our dress, the effect ranges from daring
to innocent to modest. {The last being a sign of the times in the fact
that so many women skip the garters or slips.}
"In the home, taking
something lovely that is usually kept in the closet or lingerie chest
and placing it on the wall or by the window for all to see gives a room a
playful, whimsical effect.
"And, in our relationships, the result can be
devastatingly beautiful and empowering."
