This incredible musical note sign came off the front of Christina’s family’s music store. So amazing. That sign was hung in front of the store my whole childhood! It's nice that she was able to keep it.
Christina got these shoes at Chasse Gardée and they are the cuuutest.
I love this one, called Lola. I definitely recommend visiting a shop and trying on the pieces, if there happens to be a stockist local to you. Luckily, there are quite a few shops in Toronto that carry Fortnight.
Pretty postcard magnets from an event Fortnight did in Portland with Lille.
As I said, things were quiet on that day, but my friend Derrick Belcham recently made a sweet video showing Fortnight in production. Beautiful!
MADE IN CANADA from FORTNIGHT LINGERIE on Vimeo.
Thanks for letting me visit, Fortnight. x
Thanks so much for sharing this Anabela - I love seeing this space.
ReplyDeleteI bought two pieces from Fortnight online recently (though I agree, it's always better to try lingerie in person). But they fit me perfectly and I love them. I'll definitely be expanding my collection in the future!
I'm glad you like it! I was happy to hear that their sizing is the same as Freya's because all of my current collection is from Freya. Makes it easier! Although I haven't been re-fitted in quite a while... I'd love to swap out the Freyas for Fortnight. Ha.
DeleteAwesome collection and great photos!
ReplyDeleteIt's a little vintage without being too "retro" but still very modern.
Such creative talent all over Parkdale.
It's true! It's so nice to get to know all those talents, too. I'm glad you enjoyed this post.
DeleteAaahhh, the nude fabric with the polka dots! Everything about this just feels so good.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you like it! And yeah, that fabric and all things they make with it: gorgeous.
Deletebeautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteSuch beautiful garments and photos. These are going on my wish list for sure, sadly there's no stockist in Chicago. Of course.
ReplyDeleteAw, bummer. Maybe one day?
Deletethis studio looks so simple and beautiful, like the underthings themselves.
ReplyDeleteIt's really lovely, filled with beautiful light.
DeleteBeautiful! I visited Lille on a visit to Portland once and this looks like the perfect pairing.
ReplyDeleteI didn't go to Lille when I was briefly in Portland, but I imagine you're right!
DeleteAmazing photos! The lingerie looks so beautiful and delicate. I'm so tired of mass-produced and ill-fitting lingerie, that these photos make me want to buy everything!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you like it! It's really beautiful & so well made.
DeleteWhat a lovely studio, beautiful pictures x
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteNext treat day, I am going to get myself some new lingerie! I have this body, might as well doll it up!
ReplyDeleteYeah! Do it.
Deletegorgeous.
ReplyDeletei am DYING to know the brand of those shoes.
i hope someone can help!
I asked Christina... Demoo Parkchoonmoo!
DeleteWow!!! great pictures!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteWow, those pieces look amazing. I can imagine people who own them, treasure them so much.
ReplyDeleteI have one item from Fortnight and I save it only for special occasions, haha!
DeleteWow, I loved watching the video of these pieces being made. I had really never thought about how multiple pieces would be sewn at once and so on. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you liked it! I love how easy they make it seem, ha.
DeleteSuch pretty, pretty things ... I'd never be able to choose, everything's too lovely to pick just one or two pieces. :)
ReplyDeleteAgreed!
DeleteI absolutely love my Fortnight lingerie! I'm looking to add some polka dot pieces to my drawers, too. Love the photos of their space!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you like them! And yes, I just have one item but I love it so much.
DeleteI enjoy studio visit posts, and particularly in this case, the quality of your photos matches the subject perfectly! Loved the video too, it's always fun to see the working process.
ReplyDeleteI like them too, & glad you like these!
DeleteThese photos are BEAUTIFUL! There's a kind of quietness to the place that makes sense after what you said, as though it's having a well-earned rest after making that deadline. It seems peaceful and calm, and the light is incredible.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! And yes, it was definitely a day for them to catch their breath. Usually they have loud music playing, sewing machines racing, etc.!
DeleteThanks for sharing these lovely studio shots, Anabela. I love my Fortnight pieces, and I first found out about them through one of your earlier posts on this line.
ReplyDeleteOh, that's great to hear!
DeleteI ordered one of the longline bras from Lille - they skew a little small in the cups, but I'm hoping it'll fit eventually. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteOh, that's too bad. They told me the sizing is based on sizing used by British lingerie companies like Freya... when I first started wearing Freya I was surprised by how different the sizing was.
Deletewhat a nice video.
ReplyDeleteAgreed.
DeleteAs a Portlander, I love Lille and am so happy to see that they stock Fortnight. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteHope you get the chance to take a look!
DeleteWhat a great video, really lovely lingerie. I lvoe the studio as well.
ReplyDeleteI love the video too. Thank you!
Deletethat's a cool studio :)

I agree!
DeleteTotally gorgeous. Your photos are so very dreamy. Next time I'm in Toronto, I'll check it out.
ReplyDeleteI am sure you already know about The Loved One and their beautiful intimates. It was created by my ridiculous talented (and Canadian!) friend Hannah. Something says you'll love this too: http://thelovedone.net/
Thanks so much! And yeah, I love The Loved One. So good.
Deleteyour blog makes my heart sing! :)

What a nice thing to say, thank you!
DeleteBeautiful photos, they look so serene and relaxing. The lingerie looks so delicate, the type that makes you feel like a goddess when you wear them! ~

Yes, for sure! Thank you.
DeleteThanks for introducing this! I really hope they have a store in Montreal. Thier lingerie is beautiful :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you can find it at Simons in Montréal!
DeleteSo pretty! Love your photos...
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Deletehi where can i get this tote? how much is it and may i also have the measurements pls?
ReplyDeletethanks
Do you mean the totes that we make? They're available here: http://fieldguided.bigcartel.com. The measurements for the different totes are in the listings.
DeleteI love your photo of the giant musical note and the production video - everything is made with such care! Plus it's always fun to see how things are made.
ReplyDeleteI agree -- and I'm so glad you enjoyed!
DeleteI loooove all the images! Simply beautiful ♥
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteNice to see it's made in Canada! The collection has lovely colours!
ReplyDeleteAgreed!
DeleteI agree. Canada is not a "country of origin" you see very often. Looks like they make some beautiful pieces that would make a nice addition or investment to lingerie!
ReplyDeleteIt's true! Both things!
