A Sneak Peak Into The Boudoir At Sweet Cherry Vintage Lingerie
Featuring over 400 Vintage Lingerie Garments!

Vintage Lingerie Galore. Shelley, owner at Sweet Cherry Vintage Lingerie has been and gone through quite the hellish experience for the past three years. While going full force, being one of the top producing vintage lingerie businesses on the internet, her husband was in a near fatal accident in June, 2010.., which was followed very publicly in Long Beach, by online newspaper LBReport.Com, here is part of her story. After that, her life was forever changed.

He did recover, however with life long permanent debilitating disabilities. He then was diagnosed with cancer last year, however, thankfully in remission. On top of all this, Shelley was diagnosed with PTSD (from the accident), Fibromyalgia, and Osteoarthritis throughout her neck and back, causing daily pain.

Now, fast forward, 3 years later, she and her with the help of her husband, have unpacked, cleaned, organized approximately 400 vintage nightgowns, vintage peignoirs, vintage sets, vintage girdles, full and half vintage slips, vintage petticoats, vintage bras, vintage panties! Slowly but surely, her eBay business Sweet Cherry Vintage Lingerie is getting back up full swing!
Here is a SNEAK PEEK of what she has to offer! A private view into Sweet Cherry Vintage Lingerie boudoir. 

Running their home business is now a full time job for Shelley and it's not easy because she still has to live with the effects from the Fibromyalgia and Osteoarthritis, as well, as being caretaker for her disabled husband. She has done a lot of soul searching over past couple of months, and it's time now to focus on the business, and not focus about the trivial shit in life. So with saying that....Here is the sneak peek into the private boudoir of Sweet Cherry Vintage Lingerie!

Schiaparelli Couture Italian Designer and Vintage Lingerie

Elsa Schiaparelli designed costumes for much of Hollywood including actresses such as Zsa Zsa Gabor, Mae West, Katherine Hepburn, the duchess of Windsor was also a huge fan. Elsa was one of, if not the actual first, to use shoulder pads, colored zippers, back-less swim suits, turbans, the wedge shoe and buttons that looked like anything but a button.

In 1941 Elsa went to the United States to escape the war and when she returned to France in 1945 her popularity had seriously waned. Unwilling to curb her imagination for economical reasons she continued to design with all her usual flair and frivolities,but her post war designs didn't suit the times and by 1954 she had retired from being a fashion designer.

Ironically this was the very same year that Coco Chanel returned to Paris after being away for 15 years. They were rumored to be great enemies and it was said that Coco Chanel would not speak Elsa’s name and would only refer to her as “that Italian that made clothes”.

Schiaparelli’s designs were heavily influenced by artists in the dada and surrealist movements, particularly by Salvador Dali. While Chanel’s clothes were known for their simplicity, Schiaparelli’s were known for their daring.

Elsa Schiaparelli passed away in 1973 but her influences in fashion are still very obvious today, even if you didn't know it until now.
Add to your Schiaparelli collection with these RARE vintage panty girdle. Available at Sweet Cherry Vintage Lingerie:

Elsa Schiaparelli

(1890 - 1973)

Old Hollywood Glamor Vintage Lingerie Style

Vintage Lingerie Dressing Gowns of the past.. Are these not the epitome of OLD HOLLYWOOD GLAMOUR OR WHAT!?! Why don't women of today still dress this way? I mean, come on, this no way compares or competes with the trash of what today's lingerie is offered from places like V.Secret. Occasionally you can pop into a Frederick's of Hollywood and find your self a marabou peignoir, but not in glorious rayon satin or true chiffon nylon. Most are created in a polyester chiffon or sickly poly satin. ICK. I was born in the wrong era. *sigh*


This is why I sell vintage lingerie, to keep the passion alive of truly glamorous clothing.

Olga Nightgowns and Vintage Lingerie by Sweet Cherry Vintage

Olga Nightgowns and Vintage Lingerie by Sweet Cherry Vintage

The Olga brand was started by Olga Erteszek, a war refugee from Poland, who came to the U.S. with her husband in 1939. With only $10 in her pocket and the skills she had learned from her corsetiere mother, Olga began a business making lace garter belts on her kitchen table with a rented sewing machine.

Since then Olga has grown to become one of the leading intimate apparel brands in North America. Known for superior design and garments that flatter all figure types, Olga has strived to maintain the personalized touch of its founder in each garment.Olga Erteszek along with her husband Jan (1913–1986), a lawyer, came to the United States in 1941. Fleeing Poland and the invading Nazi army, the young couple left their family and most possessions. After emigrating to Russia and then Japan, they both eventually secured a visa and landed in California.

As the daughter of a corsetiere, Olga worked in a sweatshop making girdles and brassieres, and Jan found work in sales. One day she spotted a woman on a trolley with hosiery rolled to her knees. She said to Jan that it was a shame that women didn't have at least some bit of finery to hold up their stockings, something to make them feel feminine no matter how severe the sacrifices or how limited their funds were during the war effort. Jan encouraged her to create something herself to facilitate the woman, so with a $5.00 sewing machine rental and $5.00 of material, she got started.

Olga sewed a dozen or so lace-trimmed garter belts that Jan sold to the foundations buyer at an elite department store. And this started an industry that blossomed to employ 2,000 women. Enduring from the 1940s to today, Olga is known as America’s leading maker of fashionable lingerie, sleepwear and loungewear. At one time, Olga directed a team of 17 designers who were dedicated to change the look of women’s confining “unspeakables” to fashion pieces that shaped the bust, smoothed the tummy and enticed the gentlemen. Jan found his calling as the head marketing and sales director. It was Jan who insisted that Olga herself appear in the advertising under the tag line, “Behind every Olga there really is an Olga”.

Holding the woman's record for patents at 28, Olga brought women many pleasing, comfortable and fashionable undergarments. In addition to winning many industry awards, Olga and her husband were honored for their community and humanitarian work. In 1985, they received the California Industrialist of the Year Award for lifetime achievement. Olga was one of the first businesses to initiate profit sharing for employees, and in 1967 it became a publicly owned corporation valued at $67 million. In 1984, Olga was ranked as a Fortune 500 company and one of the best 100 companies to work for in America.
