Editorial Review for Isabella Fine Lingerie – by Elisa Kronish
The Scene
Like a treasured secret, Isabella is practically hidden along a quiet residential street. An old-fashioned, built-in wooden pharmacy cabinet creates romantic displays and provides attractive storage space. The tiny store has a warm, welcoming feel, especially from personable owner Lauren Amerine, who offers one-on-one attention whenever she can.
The Goods
With about 100 bra styles in sizes up to 44JJ, this shop has the female figure covered. Amerine chooses lines that you won't see in many department stores--they're sometimes even exclusive to Chicago and often imported from Europe. The selection includes sexy lace bras, simple silk bra and panty sets, frilly or fun patterned negligees, and colorful nylon mesh shorts and camisole sleep sets. The air bra from France is a hot seller, and amazingly soft lace bras make beautiful bridal shower gifts.

Insider Tips
Know Before You GoMen, don't be afraid to visit. After all, it's on a side street, so few people will see you. Just bring the size.

Lauren and Alyssa make every single shopping experience a joy... they are superior when it comes to finding the "perfect" fit and making one feel comfortable with their shape!!! Some Items may be a bit pricey... but you are paying for high quality items and it's worth the $$$$! The customer service and personal attention that they provide is unbelievable. They will order items for you and even ship to you if you are out of state. I would recommend coming into the store for a fitting... as it can and will change your life!
Pros: Customer Service and Selection of items

Stunning selection of hard-to-find European lingerie like Parah. Expect to drop at least $150 on a sassy ensemble. Everything here is so beautiful, it's total temptation, so hide your AmEx platinum when walking in here. The staff is helpful and isn't too pushy. Stop by for less expensive basics like Honeydew and Cosabella.
Pros: Great selection/staff
Cons: Could use some sassier styles
