A Rose by Any Other Name…
February 3rd, 2012
From Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, 1600:
JULIET:
‘Tis but thy name that is my enemy;
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What’s Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What’s in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
A lovely sentiment from Shakespeare, indeed. However when it comes to staff favourite Lily Rose by Empreinte, we aren’t sure any other name would do. This is truly one of the most loved bras we’ve ever carried! We are thrilled to have received two new colours in Lily Rose. Many of our fitters and customers swear by this gorgeous style, and the new colours are to die for! (but only if in dramatic Romeo & Juliet fashion!) A feminine detail here, a contrasting colour there, this set is unique and distinctive. Best of all it is a fabulous fit that you will want to wear every day.
Pictured above, this lovely style reminds us of Dutch China or a Toile pattern in colour and design. We have it at our Bloor Street location in sizes D-G 32-38. There is also a matching Shorty!
Pictured below, in Chantilly (Ivory), Empreinte’s Lily Rose is a pretty, easy-to-wear everyday colour.
Chantilly, which is cream with a touch of pink, is available at both stores and is available for order as well, which means it will be a basic style for us! We are so happy to add this to our lineup of everyday staples, because it is so pretty and the quality is magnificent! Juliet would be lucky to wear something so pure and pretty. Romeo would be pleased as well…
Oh, Juliet, won’t you take a trip down memory lane with us….?
