At Yves Fine Lingerie, the secret is in the fit

Walking through the large double doors at Yve's Fine Lingerie is like walking into the most amazing closet that boasts an exquisite collection of lingerie, pajamas, swimwear, slippers, and an array of feminine soaps, crèmes, and bath salts. It is almost as if you will want to say, "I'll take one of everything please." Located in Granite Bay, Yve's Fine Lingerie is the answer to all of our fine lingerie needs and questions. Complete with bra fitting specialists and an extensive line of luxury lingerie, every woman will feel sexy in her own skin once she slips into the right-fitting pair of unmentionables that this fine boutique has to offer. "The main focus of our store is the hard-to-find bra size, we specialize in the hard to fit client," said Yvonne Alicea, owner. With bra sizes ranging from 32A to 46J this shop caters to all women who just want and deserve the right fit. It is easy to become enamored by all of the delicate lace and beautiful soft cloths of the lingerie that encompass the four walls of the shop. The delicate colors and sexy styles that hang from unique armoires and adorn antique dressers can easily distract anyone. Yvonne can sense this and will immediately focus her client towards their needs. Shopping at Yve's Fine Lingerie is truly an experience on bra education. The fitting itself is a process that goes well beyond the dressing room. After Yvonne measures and matches the client with the correct bra and such item is fastened securely, she instructs you to sit down, get comfortable and see how the bra really feels on your body. One client sat down and then switched chairs, crossed her legs, uncrossed them and repeated the entire process only to say that she felt a poking in her arm. "Honey, don't make something work," Yvonne responded. "If it doesn't work, it doesn't work, don't force it to work." After four years of successful business practice, Yvonne has built a loyal client base that praise her strategies and knowledge. "I had never had a proper fitting before and I had definitely been selecting the wrong styles, shapes, and sizes," commented Sue, a client of Yve's. "Having my personal fittings with Yve has been a truly wonderful experience which has led to the perfect fit."Yvonne takes a gentle but firm approach with her clients. Whether they are cancer radiation patients who need to find gentle fabrics during treatment, expectant mothers who need support for their changing bodies or a woman who has struggled throughout her life to find the right bra, Yvonne guides each client to a fit that is best for them. Yve's is also a fun place to be. The atmosphere is inviting and begs clients to sit down, share a beverage and participate in the chatter of friendly conversation. One can easily feel as if they have been shopping at Yve's as their mother before them had and their grandmother before her. This is a generational shopping experience that adds a unique touch to the cookie cutter strip malls that normally line our streets. The crystal chandeliers and sconces add the right feel of home to the ambience, which will transport you from a retail store to the days when you sat at your mother's dresser admiring her jewelry and clothes longing to be old enough to wear all of the beauty that surrounded you. Yve's Fine Lingerie offers professional fittings, men-friendly shopping, complimentary gift wrapping, and same-day delivery within a 25-mile radius. This is truly a business centered around client services and relationships and about educating their clients. Yvonne will educate you not only on the right fit for her products but also on the proper care and cleaning of them as well. Yvonne inspects every single bra that comes into her store and no bra leaves without a proper fitting. "It's always been a passion of mine, the fabrics, the lace," Yvonne says. "I have been in love with the beauty of lingerie my whole life."----------Yves Fine LingerieAddress: 3984 Douglas Blvd., Suite 130, RosevillePhone: (916) 797-9837Web: www.yvesfinelingerie.----------Five Reasons Your Current Bra Doesn't Fit1.
