From September 5th to September 7th, the show brought together brands, connected buyers and welcomed unique collaborations between artists and fashion from all over the globe.

Although attendance levels were an obvious indication of distressed economical times, Coquette's booth remained steady and crowded with previously satisfied customers as well as several new prospective clients. Coquette's largest German customer posed a magnificent interest in their newly launched Penthouse line, Signature Box Collection and innovative musical G-string line. Salon International de la Lingerie welcomed more than 45 different countries including: Greece, Belgium, Spain and the Middle East.

"The whole show was a complete rejuvenation for the design team and me, particularly receiving all the positive feedback from our committed customers," Horea stated in regards to the highlight of the show. "It was also so delightful to see our French distributers: Richard and Francine, with their faithful customers who waited in lines specifically for their services," Horea added.

Coquette's new Signature Box Collection took off impeccably, offering sexy lingerie in elegant boxes, priced to fit everyone's budget. Due to the popularity of the Signature Box Collection, Coquette will be creating separate flyers for it.

Coquette Featured at the Premiere of Sacha Baron Cohen's Latest Movie Bruno

With the core of fashion design stemming from Hollywood, among various other celebrity induced trends, it's no surprise that Coquette International was featured at the premiere of the upcoming movie Bruno. Coquette's five piece G.I. Girl costume, style M573, includes a sexy camouflage cropped jacket top, short hugging-shorts, lycra bikini top, army hat and of course dog tags to complete the sexy G.I. Girl appearance.

Sexy costumes were the foundation in which evoked the rising success of Coquette International's widely recognized Masquerade Collection. Coquette was one of the first lingerie companies to breakthrough the public taboos of sexy, revealing and suggestive costumes, established in the 80's. With each costume originally tailored and embellished with passion by Catherine Horea, the company has since grown tremendously and developed its own design team consisting of four creative youthful perceptions for the future success of Coquette International.

The L.A. premiere of Bruno began with Cohen's grand entrance; riding atop his gigantic hybrid fashionable army tank, followed by an entourage of stunning G.I. Girl's sporting Coquette's sexy Masquerade costume. "Getting the opportunity to watch your passion being projected on the big screen is beyond words," Catherine Horea, Senior VP of Coquette gracefully stated. "It means so much to have your work chosen for so many others to enjoy the benefits of, especially when it's something you've worked so hard to accomplish," Horea added.

Set to be outrageously funny, Bruno hits theaters Friday July 10th, and is predicted to draw in millions at the box office. Cohen's controversial sense of humor rests within his latest character, a gay Austrian fashionista/TV reporter. Cohen humorously alleged that Bruno is, "The most powerful documentary since the Lion King."
