Lingerie Store Interior Design

A new lingerie store in San Diego is getting ready to open its doors in November, and we helped create the interior design its owner dreamed of.  Located on 12925 El Camino Real, San Diego, CA 92130, Rumeur Lingerie is part of the 40 commercial spaces that make The Collection at Del Mar Highlands Town Center, the new and impressive expansion of the 30-year-old mall. With a new wing and new second story, the mall will offer generous extra space for some vibrant and enjoyable commerce, and our new lingerie store interior design will add a beautiful and delicate touch to its landscape.  

Lingerie Store Interior Design

The owner of Rumeur Lingerie has been long dreaming of an interior design better than that of Victoria’s Secret (a store that has lately been suffering from poor quality). Since we do enjoy a challenge, we were the perfect match. We started with a few general ideas: a feminine space with a simple layout, but decadent details. We decided on an interior centered around soft and rich rose tones, where heavy textures and gentle light combine into an intimate interior.

While we focused on displaying the lingerie products in the best light, we turned the counter into the focal point of the store. A curtain falling in heavy folds over an oversized black-and-white graphic brought in the dramatic element we needed, amplifying the intimate character of the space. We created this arrangement as a subtle visual suggestion of what lingerie is all about – a secret waiting to be discovered.

We lined up the display shelves all the way to the counter, creating a double path for easy traffic. While the shelves are a simple combination of white and warm wood tones, they are wonderfully detailed. Terrazzo slabs in pastel colors top the central pieces, tying in with the design of the counter.

Terrazzo Pink Color

It’s notoriously easy to turn gaudy when using lots of pink in interior design, so we chose soft (yet not shy) tones, which we balanced with an equal amount of gray. To give this chromatic combination some sparkle, vibrancy and  extra warmth, we added a third light-beige color and gold-toned details.

We wanted this space a mix of modern design and traditional details, and we achieved this by keeping the layout simple and the details rich. The minimalist gold-toned hooks next to the gold Victorian mirror frames are a good example of this new-old combination that keeps the eye interested.

Unlike the sharp angles of the display furniture, many of the accent pieces are circular: the globe-shaped light fixtures, the furniture details, even the shape of the fitting rooms. This adds to the feminine feel of the space, with the soft lines evoking the feminine shape.

We used track lights to control the mood of the space and keep the attention on the lingerie. We decided to treat lingerie not only as a commercial product, but also as a work of art. We framed  a few pieces and turned them into wall decor, subtly urging customers to see them with new eyes.
