Made In Italy

(711 Items)

The term 'Made in Italy' has been used since 1980. Laundry b has been an industry leader in styling our discerning ladies in one size, Made in Italy fashion since 2005. Our experience has led us to only use the absolute best suppliers in Italy.

Made in Italy clothing comes from a relatively small area in Northern Italy, not too far from the fashion hub of Florence however the Lagenlook style is worn by stylish, cool ladies of a certain age across most of Europe. The Italian factories mainly work with beautiful, generously cut, breathable fabrics such as linens, silks, cottons, super soft knitwear & jersey. 

Our ladies love to experiment with the 'Lagenlook' style of dressing (this is a german term, translated as 'layered look') The vibe is timeless, quirky & so different from the UK high street.

Made in Italy fashion / Lagenlook is loved due to the versatility of its sizing. Our ladies always look unique and they stand out in a crowd, no matter what their body shape. Lots of our Made in Italy clothing will fit to a UK size 24 but looks equally as cool on smaller frames. 

Laundry b is the UK's most stylish Made in Italy and Lagenlook retailer. Our years of experience and industry contacts will ensure you always see the best of what Made in Italy has to offer and how to wear it .. Nobody can layer like Laundry b!


The Blouse From H & M

The blouse is huge, XXL EU.
I had to buy it because of the vibrant colour. I bought it in St Luke's in London. I bought it with the dress which I found nearby in the same shop.


St Luke's
St Luke's is a charity shop. Americans say thrift shop. In Australia and New Zealand they nowadays say op shop.St Luke's has several branches in London and I have mentioned it previously in other posts.

Hennes & Mauritz

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
H&M Flagship store in Causeway Bay, Hong Kong

H & M Hennes & Mauritz AB (H&M), is a Swedish clothing company. It sells fast fashion at cheaper prices. The company was created in Västerås, Sweden, in 1947 by Erling Persson.[1] At first, the company only sold women's clothing. At that time, it was called Hennes, Swedish for "hers." In 1968, Persson got the building and inventory of a Stockholm hunting equipment store named Mauritz Widforss. A supply of men's clothing was part of the inventory. This caused Persson to decide to also sell men's clothing. He renamed the store Hennes & Mauritz, later shortened to H&M.



To protect the blouse from perspiration stains and smells, underneath I wore a Patra vest. I have a ribbed vest with lade neck and lace edges to the elbow length sleeves. I used to buy the same style in silk when the company started as a specilist in soft silk clothes. The green vest is size XL and 70 bamboo, 30 cotton. I used to avoid bamboo and go for silk. Then I saw a Patra vest on ebay and bought it and discovered it was bamboo not silk but had the same soft feel.

Indigo Moon Brown & Green Jacket Paired with green Indigo Moon skirt outfit number 487

  Indigo Moon brown jacket paired with Indigo Moon green skirt.  Skirt. Photo taken and cropped by Angela Lansbury. Copyright. I bought these two items from the same label separately and paired them up. I found many Indigo Moon jackets and tops on ebay. Many from the UK, several from the USA.  Bold Bids For Several Skirts I had two Indigo Moon jackets and I wanted skirts to match. I saw three skirts, two red, one green. I hoped to win one of them. As the bidding for all ended the same day, I had no chance of waiting for the bidding on one to end before bidding on a second if I failed to secure the first. The green skirt arrived with two red skirts, same label. I had bid on all three which had low prices. I was pleasantly surprised, pleased to win all three. The price of all three together wasn't so bad. However, add in the postage on three items, the sum was no longer small. Pleasing Postage Refund I did not realise until all three arrived in the same packet that they wer...

Blue H & M Dress, dress of the day 393

Image
  Angela Lansbury wearing a blue background dress from H &M. Photo by Trevor Sharot. The Blue H & M Dress Blue background dress has a white pattern. Blues are hard to match. But I had a white blouse, so I wore this. On the internet and on Facebook you can see lots of videos of how to tie a scarf, but mine is simply hanging, which partly obscures the cleavage.  Cleavage cover I had a choice. To insert a dickey or false front, also called a removable or detachable collar. I have one or two which are plain white.  The alternative which saves hunting for a matching dickey without distracting collar colours and embrodiery, is simply to add a fastening. I decided that a snap or press stud fastener in small size is qhich to fasten and unlikely to pull apart (as opposed to hook and eye. I like velcro but it can scratch your skin, so the press stud was the right andwer. You have to get the two sides exactly measured up from the point of the V neck otherwide you end up with...

Marks & Spencer coat reversed Post 409

  Angela Lansbury wearing a black Marks & Spencer coat reversed. Photo by Trevor Sharot. The magenta lining was such a pretty colour that I preferred it to the black outside. If a coat has a label at the neck which shows, or one on the side seam, you could either cut it off or cover it with black ribbon sewn on. Some people, such as the royal family, are reputed to always include a funeral outfit in their packing in case it is needed. (I always pack a swimsuit, so as not to miss out, and an evening outfit, in case I get invited to a party or wedding or smart restaurant for dinner.) An alternative is to have a reversible coat or jacket. Useful Websites https://www.marksandspencer.com/ Please share links to your favourite posts.
