Sex appeal, like the devil, is in the details.
The red underbelly of a Louboutin. The lace gloves of Dita von Teese.
And if it’s a very specific type of sexiness you seek, look no further than the Seduciary, a boudoir filled with luxurious erotica for sale, now open online and in Hollywood.
The Seduciary is a mini-boutique within Just One Eye, which is itself a boutique of eclectic haute-urban brands like Christophe Lemaire and Diemme. (These suede slip-ons? Fire.)
Our sexy favorites:
Dita Von Teese
You don’t get more burlesque sexy than Dita Von Teese, former bride to Marilyn Manson and queen of the seductive ritual of dressing and undressing (mostly undressing). Her lace gloves are the epitome of digital seduction.
Erotica
For your walls and tables: Taschen books and Daido Moriyama prints. Also, Hajime Sorayama’s mash-ups of Americana pin-up art with classic Geisha illustrations and Japanese script.
Jewelry
Former Warhol understudy and Armani director Wilfred Rosado (above left) has an entire room at Just One Eye. Much of his work evokes Greco-Roman themes (the good old days of sex!). The items from Spallanzani (above right) are somewhat more, uh, literal.
Proviso: all of the above ships fast if you’re looking for a belated Valentine’s Day gift.
Enjoy.
