Found at Sexe, love et gaudriole, the mysterious Maison Close. Or not so mysterious: it’s a fledgling high-end Parisian lingerie company that supplies boutiques worldwide, and is readying to open a brick-and-mortar store in Paris.

Look out, SF
Oh my gawd. I’ve just been told that *the* Donna Sachet is on her way to my house. It is slightly nonconsensual, but Friday has now begun. I’m about to be picked up in a limo to join a bevy of HOT and powerful (like, as in San Francisco politics) transgender women and some very…
