La Perla Vintage Plisse bikini

With our limited Franglish we were pretty sure that “Plisse” referred to an ever-so-graceful ballet maneuver, and when we tried this piece on we felt elegant and dangerous, lithe and sinuous- like swans. Then we noticed the shirred silk panel comprising the sophisticated front and realized that “Plisse” means pleated and that, per usual, La Perla is ahead of the curve on the classicist details. So- best of both worlds. We feel like graceful ballerinas but we can go out for a nice big French dinner.
