Cathy Reynolds opened The Delicate Touch Lingerie & Sleepwear, twenty three years ago with a mission to “get ladies comfortable.” The shop is an oasis of intimate, feminine and calm. She believes that lingerie should add a sassy feel to a woman’s persona; it’s an ingredient of woman’s empowerment in her wardrobe.
In today’s economy, symbols of pleasure; perfume, chocolate, flowers, and lingerie have the ability to satisfy this desire for feeling good. It’s a mind booster and a great feeling to wear garments that are pretty, lacy and soft.
Reynolds’s intimate shop is the result of a lot of hard work and dedication; it’s comfortable and inviting. It is stocked with the labels of Chantelle, Prima Donna, Lejaby, Anita and Spanx, as well as other seamless body wraps made in Canada. She also offers the deliciously yummy and world-renowned product, Crabtree & Evelyn, a line of bath, body and feminine giftware; a sensuous and pleasing collection of scents and treats.
Cathy understands that brides today are practical; however they understand that an investment in lingerie is not something that is worn just once. Correctly fitted lingerie will ensure that a bride’s look is perfect and comfortable.
Certified fitters, called “lingerie experts,” are always available. Reynolds also suggests shopping early in the wedding planning because it’s important to wear your intimate apparel to all your wedding gown fittings. The wrong bra will cause shoulder sloping, neck curvature, headache and back aches, while the right one will improve posture, appearance and self esteem. It’s not just undergarments.
Lingerie was developed during the late nineteenth century as a visually appealing undergarment by Lady Duff-Gordon of Lucile, a pioneer who freed women from tightly-laced corsets. Today, its evolution continues with bold colours, rich-looking and more breathable fabrics and styles; some that can double both as under and outerwear.
The shop stocks over 5000 bras in all colours and styles from strapless, low plunge and push up styles. Today’s newest technology offers light weight multi- air bubbles with spacer fabric.
While you’re in the shop, browse for other items for your wedding. Forget about being practical for just this once and try on sensuous lounge wear from the large variety of elegant lines offered. What better time is there to splurge on feminine beauty and luxury than for your wedding and honeymoon? It should be your gift to yourself!
Lingerie could be coined “loungerie” and there’s plenty of selection to choose from. Check out their swimwear and know that you will look good before you can leave the shop with your purchase. “It’s all about the fit,” says Reynolds.
The Delicate Touch offers a bridal registry and gift certificates for all your guests and special thank yous, and is a specialist in Mastectomy fitting.
Specialized service and great attention to a proper fit is what this delightful shop is all about. Their staff is friendly and adept at what they do, which is pampering the ladies!
