Yes Way Frosé! This Watermelon Frosé with Blueberries gets it's own #WordlessWednesday for being my drink pick of the summer! From @curvexpo Cocktail Hour honoring @Wacoal [#Lingerie Designer of the Year] @Pier66Maritime

Curvexpo 2018 was fabulous this year!

The increased focus on Body Positivity and even a panel on Social Media made it my favorite tradeshow of the summer!

More to come, and hopefully some brand highlights in individual posts as there were a TON of butterfly sightings this year which meant I talked to way more brands than I usually get a chance to.

Today's "Wordless Wednesday" is focusing on a delicious Watermelon Frosé with Blueberries that was the signature drink of the event (the drink was brought to us by Vodafone) at the Cocktail Hour hosted outside the tradeshow at a venue called Big Red Boat in Park/aka 'Frying Pan'/Pier 66 Maritime they were honoring Wacoal as Lingerie Designer of the Year and Curvexpo exhibitors and attendees and media were invited to mix and mingle over drinks and apps! It got super packed and busy but the location right on the water somehow made it so relaxing.

CURVExpo Lingerie Fashion Night “IN”

I am definitely a curvy girl and am always on the hunt to find intimate apparel and fashion that enhances my figure. I don't want to 'hide it' I want and do prefer to 'flaunt it'.

For some reason The Curve Expo has not worked with my schedule and I haven't had the opportunity to attend the actual expo yet, but they did host their first official sanctioned offsite event during the Expo called Lingerie Fashion Night 'IN' and thankfully I was able to attend!

The evening began with a press preview hosted by Maria Teresa Sampedro of PROMOSTYL who unveiled 4 sexy new trends for the Fall/Winter 2014-2015 season including Chronos, Synesthesia, Perpetuity and Curator.

Luxe Parisian Brand, Aubade Paris kicked off the show followed by over 190 looks from brands such as Curvy Couture, Natori, Josie, LOU, Coquette, Anita, Passionata, Vannina Vesperini, Simon Perele, Cleo, Masquerage, Panache, Betsey Johnson, OnGossamer, LeMystere (one of my personal faves), Triumph, B.tempt'd, Wacoal, Fantasie, Huit, Freya, Elomi, Maison du Papillon (and as Papillon is French for Butterfly it's needless to say they caught my eye!), Christine Lingerie, Donna Reis, Body Hush, Pluto on the Moon, Arlotta, Oscalito, Sokoloff Lingerie, Dollhouse Bettie, Dear Bowie, Hipster G, Shibue Couture, Just My Size, Bali, Playtex, Barely There, Lilyette, Flexees, Champion, and Maidenform!

There are too many pictures taken from this event to include here, so please visit our CURVExpo Lingerie Fahion Night 'IN' Pinterest Board for additional photos from the event!

Isn't this set cute?

This model loved the camera and it loves her right back

Check out the fun and flirty design on the back!

I would probably leave out that Boa, but I like this set!

There was also men's styles featured

This color is EVERYTHING!

See what I mean, Larger Bust and Small Waist (not that mine is this small, but I LOVE this Bra!)

This has a simple French Inspired Sex Appeal to it

This will definitely put some extra 'va va voom' in your life

For those uncomfortable with their tummy, you can still have a little sexy and still have some cover too!

Cute pairing with a Sassy Boy Short!

MY TAKE:

I definitely appreciated the wide variety of models they worked with for the show, women have different curves and there was pretty much a model that covered every body type. I for one am busty (Naturally my dears, no enhancements here) but have a small waist in comparison, so sometimes finding matching lingerie sets can be a challenge. I was happy to see more trendy styling for larger busts which is also a challenge for me. Again we took a lot of our own pictures for this one, so please visit our Pinterest Board for additional photos!
