In Short – With an impeccable reputation in France for its swimwear, this boutique's sky-high prices feel justified. Swimsuits are almost silky to the touch, and are made of a high-tech fabric that allows for a pinked edge--the zigzags cut by pinking shears--hence no seams and no fraying. It makes for a mean tan line, but who cares? The bras and panties are like gauze, many of them see-through and lacking in the usual underwire architecture.
