Secret Life of Syrian Lingerie: Intimacy and Design
by Rana Salam & Malu Halasa

The most outrageous and exuberant lingerie in the world comes from a place you would probably never expect: Syria. Adorned with everything from faux fur artificial flowers and feathered birds to plastic toy cell phones these intimates flash lights play music even vibrate. Well known across the Middle East--in Syria the lingerie forms an important part of the folk tradition around trousseaus and weddings--it is openly displayed in the markets and souks. Authors Malu Halasa and Rana Salam have brought together a diverse and dramatic collection of photography and writing including the voices of Syrian women celebrating this little-known niche of fashion design in all its playful glory.
